Ah, geez, meara, that's awful. I've had that happen, and it's awful. I had to move out of my apartment about 4 months after it happened because I felt so unsafe there.
My food is problematic.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Lisah, that's awful about the baby; how devastating. Much strength to them.
meara, is there any victim's support the police can point her to? They might have some ideas about anything else she needs to do to cover herself. Plus counseling. That unsafe feeling probably isn't going to go away any time soon.
So sorry about the sicklies and ickies Bitches must endure. Hooray for hugs and hairpats, pictures and links, and the sexy foaminess of Bitchdom helping to balance life out.
Now to bed before I get any more incomprehensible.

move out and draw fire
Oh, lisah, what a nightmare! All my condolences.
Very cute haircut, Jessica. I am inspired to get my hair cut today, but as usual, I don't have high hopes.

Now tagless for your comfort.
lisah, I'm so sorry-that is truly horrifying.
I'm just barely around and catching up. I caught Owen's pukey-virus. Mercifully, it was short-lived but it's drained me.
DH goes back to work tomorrow so I'm finally flying solo with the kids during the day. Going to need some rest and coping-ma for that.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Going to need some rest and coping-ma for that.
And so you shall have it!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I hope you can get some good sleep, Cash. And that the babies are good for you tomorrow.

Bless pharmacopia.
And thank you, ita, for the biofeedback techniques. They worked really well for helping me calm down, at least mentally.

Mostly lurking...
Bad night for the Bitches.
lisah, I'm so sorry. Many thoughts and prayers going out to you and yours.
meara, how scary for Minnesota!Girl! I'm glad she's ok.
I got up early to finish my math. Unfortunately, I didn't give myself enough time before Emily left, and now I'm stuck with questions. Oh, well. Guess I'll turn it in tomorrow. My prof has been really good about giving me little extensions to get caught up.
I'm nervous about today. I'm heading back into the real world. And kind of throwing myself back in. My day starts with a meeting with my Independent Study professor (the one that's the incomplete) at 9am. Then I've got class from 10:30-1:30. Then tutoring from 2:30-3:15. Then a meeting with another professor from 3:15-4. Gonna be a LONG, crazy day. I hope I make it ok.
