[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

if someone finds my journal and is reading without my knowledge, it's more likely to be someone I know.
And, for me, it's way more likely to be someone I don't want reading my LJ.

Unless it is the lurkers supporting me in email. Cause they're the real fans.

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

I flock most of the posts regarding my family. And my general whining. Something that is just basic, such as baseball-mania, I leave open.

eta - thanks Cass.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Got back from Las Vegas a bit ago... now showered, fed, semi-unpacked, semi-caught up here, and utterly dead exhausted. So peculiar -- 24 hours ago Hec and I were dressing for a night of chichi birthday dining and Avenue Q with ND and Kristin.

I think he's marginally more awake than me, so he can give a full report. Plus, he was taking notes all weekend.

Caller ID is an unreliable narrator. My brother just called me to scream at me from the neicelet's cell phone instead of his own cell or their house line.

I picked it up because she is supposed to already be back in Vermont and not have her phone. My fear? That, instead of changing planes, she'd left the airport in Chicago like she was planning and needed help.

He yelled for about five minutes and then hung up on me. I am guessing he's calling my stepmom now and we get to have another huge family drama.

I am also guessing that he's going to block my mail from her. If he does that, I am going to get really fucking honest with him. I know a lot of his sins.

Where can I hide my phone so that I don't call him back and make this even worse? I already took the battery out but I am just looking at it and tempted.

And can I be trusted to stay online and not do it in email instead?

I could literally destroy my entire family with a phone call or email. In a way that would never be forgiven by any of us.

But would that REALLY help the niecelet. That should be your test when you are tempted.

Our wings are not tired.

The best for the niecelet is to wait for a less emotional time to let him have it. I'm so sorry Cass.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Oh, Cass... I am so sorry. What in the world does he have to yell at you about? For being there for his daughter?

True.

And I would take the heat from my brother and deal with it, if it were just that. What is sending me into a panic and hysteria is that I am pretty sure he won't even let my letters through to her anymore. So I have totally lost her until she's 18 in about a year and a half.

When she and I were talking yesterday she wanted to know why no one asked about her ex-bf or her friends. And I told her that he'd asked me (made a rule, really) not to.

Tonight when they talked after she got to Vermont, she was upset about it. She doesn't trust them to tell her the truth and they don't. It exploded, I suspect, far uglier than the conversation she and I had.

For being there for his daughter?
For refusing to lie to her. So, yes, basically he is furious that I am there for his daughter. You see, I'm been depressed before. But more damning? I dated a woman. I am obviously evil.
