Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Spike's Bitches 29: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.  

[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.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

The apartment complex has an indoor lap pool.

It's more that I'm swimming with a friend than the actual swimming itself.

Sparky--for that kind of thing, I usually go with the skirt-sweater combo. Way less hassle than a dress, especially for me.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

OOH, the SF Loehmann's-- we need to add that to the List. The one by me sucks.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

For Sunday? Cool.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

juliana - not sure if she is disappointed or not. I just got a text that said "made jv". I think she will be more annoyed with who made Varsity versus who made JV in general. There are 3 girls who should be on JV, but who may make Varsity. That will bug her and make her lose respect for the coaches more than where she ends up, I think.

Loehmann's has some fantastic sleeve dresses right now. FYI. IJS. Etc.

That would have been a fine idea last week -- but I assume anything off the rack will need alterations.

I'll find something to wear, and if I'm cold I'll just keep dancing.

I'm getting the pig!

Oh crud. I hope she's not too bummed, MG. And no worries, I'd only be in urgentmusttexthernownownow! mode if she made the varsity team.

If it's okay with Sparky.

I hope that K-Bug isn't too disappointed and ends up loving the women on her team.

If it's okay with Sparky.

Okay by me.

move out and draw fire

Totally other topic, but did you guys ever decide about staying in Athens?

It's still in committee. Short pro/con list: It would be the best decision for both of our careers to leave, and would be the best decision financially. However, leaving means R goes to Baghdad, where I can't go. So we'd be separated for a year. Which wouldn't be a huge deal, except for Mal.
