No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

[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.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

I'm so glad your first day of work went well, Spidra. I hope that it's a good omen of many happy and fulfilling work days to come.

Jilli, I would give you a good smite as well, although not as good as Aimee's, 'cause that one's pretty spectacular. The problem is, I completely can't write today. I keep adding apostrophes where they don't belong and not where they do, and spelling things incorrectly, not to mention typos. The only reason you can read this at all is extensive use of the backspace key. So, I'm afraid any smite related to editing would just bounce back on me today. I have lots and lots of sympathy for you, though. Tons of that. And chocolate.

Speaking of chocolate, WindSparrow, do you have more details on that OA diet, or do I have to be a good librarian and look it up? I feel so lazy today, and don't wanna be good!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, Cashmere. And Jilli.

Our wings are not tired

Sunrise Ford is rapidly losing points with me. It took twenty minutes of waiting before a lot attendant turned up to bring my car to me. Then when he pulled it around it hadn't been washed. My service writer called me at 10 this morning and told me the car was being pulled around to be washed and would be ready at 11. I came to pick it up at 2 and now I'm waiting another 20 mintues while they wash it.

Yes. This is a first world problem.

What is even happening?

Cashmere, if you have good drugs, definitely take them while Christopher is home, so you can see for yourself. If you do get loopy, no harm done. If not, you might get some relief, and feel like you can take them when he's not home. You poor baby. I wish I could help you.

I'd like to turn you on Jilli's cow-orkers and Jilli on your dentist. That's what.

Thrive to spite them

I saw the -- now my -- endrochronologist today. She agrees that I have PCOS and she's ordered some blood work (my PCP didn't give her my cholestorol levels). I have an appointment with her in a month to have a Pap and talk about birth control.

She said the best thing to do is eat right and exercise, she recommends walking 2-3 miles a day or 45 minutes. I think I'm going to have to work up to that.

Andi -- if you don't mind I would love some info on the Overeaters Anonymous diet.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Libkitty, Askye, insent, profile addies.

{{{Cash}}} hate incompetant medical office staff, right there with you. Hope relief comes soon.

I am the queen of passive-agressive, yet cheerful and upbeat, reminder e-mail to writers. The queen, I tell you! Becuase I don't want to alienate or upset my precious little writers, but half of them can't remember how to do their job. So I send out chirpy messages saying things like "I'm sure all of you are formatting this thingie correctly. But for my own peace of mind, I'm reminding you!"

Gaaah. Want to leave now now now. Can't yet. Dammit.

Compassionately intolerant

Oh my, back pain is the worst of the worst. Great relief to you soon.

Parental contracts are a good idea! My surrogate/nonofficial adoptive mom asked me to come live with her today. Considering everything, I'm considering it.

Remember when I was al McFevery Boysuck-ypants? Well, I have that same fever/incredible pain/ook for the third time in three months. Turns out, Fella has had some terrible infection all this time that he has just kept giving back to me. When he discovered this fact yesterday, did it occur to him to say 'my girlfriend doesn't have medical insurance at the moment, what can we do for her?' Why, no. It. did. not. I can't believe I had to remind him to do the right thing. (this after I've already spent/lost about 2k in the last four months with missed work and out of pocket doctors bills, not to mention taking enough antibiotics to battle an anthrax attack...for nothing)

What is the Universe trying to tell me?
