Hee! Mine, too. I think the last time I read it was about five years ago. I can't wait to be able to give it to my grandkids to read.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen
[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.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Sophia, I'm so sorry about your cat. I hope you get the bites checked out--they really could get infected. I wonder he could be sedated or medicated or something.
Aimee, your girl is of teh cute. Seriously.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Thank you! Yours, despite their behavioral issues at the moment, are gorgeous. (Owen! Stop being 2!)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Sophia, please go immediately to the ER if you haven't seen a doctor already. I know the scratches are painful, but cat bites are serious. People bitten on the hand have actually lost function, and had long, difficult battles, including surgeries to drain infection from deep wounds.
Go. Get your bite wounds tended to. And as much as I love cats and want to see them rescued and homed, it sounds like your guy might not have too many options right now. Listen to your vets about him. But take care of yourself, first, please.
Sorry to sound like a naggy mom, but I know more than one person who's landed in the hospital for days with "just a bite" from a cat.

Isn't it nice that you have something to look forward to? It's a good thing they do start out cute. It's to keep you from chucking them out when they hit 2.

The status is NOT quo.
Oh Sophia. My heart breaks for you. I'm so sorry.

I killed Bitches with my heart. My achy breaky heart.

It wasn't the heart, Kristin, it was the mullet that killed the thread.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Crumbs, Sophia. So terribly sorry for you and for the cat. And I agree with Bev about the doctor-seeing.
