OTOH, Tommy Gavin misusing someone else's anti-depressants, par for the course.
It's funny what's shocking.
Dawn: Any luck? Willow: If you define luck as the absence of success--plenty.
'Touched'
Spike's Bitches 31: We're Motivated Go-getters.
[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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Always Anti-fascist!
Nothing Tommy Gavin does with pills or his cock could ever shock me again. Sheila did, though. Her crazy has no bottom, does it? And, not to worry, I wouldn't compel anyone here to give me a Swearingen.ETA: Although if somebody *wanted* to do something indecent to me and listen while I gripe, I doubt I'd object. Just remember, if the recipient of a Swearingen doesn't get off, it's your fault for doing it wrong.(You're just not good like Trixie.)

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
From overheard in the office:
Office manager, on the phone: Which one of Mommy's boyfriends beat you badly enough as a child to turn you into the bitter, empty, hollow shell of a human being you are today?
Supervisor, to trainee: See? That's why we have to answer the phone quickly in this office: to keep the managers from picking up the phone. Ever.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Oh yeah? How about this one?
Co-Worker #1: Do you have to dust your desk all the time with your window shade open?
Co-Worker #2: No, why? Co-Worker #1: Because of all the sun.
Co-Worker #2: Huh?
Co-Worker #1: Dust comes from sunlight.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Dust comes from sunlight.Well, of course.
If you're a vampire.

We were woken up at 5:30-ish by an earthquake. Not terribly strong (4.9, epicenter in Albania), but it lasted long enough to really get my adrenaline going. I woke up just before the rumbling started with all my hair standing straight up; don't know when I got this sensitive to them, but the last couple earthquakes have made it clear I am.
They just aren't as fun as they used to be, I guess because I have more responsibilities and more to lose...and I'm not living in structures designed to withstand earthquakes.
ION, maybe I should get my friend to submit the email exchange he just had and forwarded to me:
Friend: Which server does this database connect to? I need to know before I can start troubleshooting.
Customer: You also need to know what server the database is on.
Friend: That's what I'm trying to find out. Pls see previous email.
Friend's manager (cc'd on emails, replying only to friend): [Name], please be careful when composing email. I'm not sure your last one had the right tone.
Friend (to manager): OK, thanks. The tone I was going for was "THAT'S what I'm trying to FIND OUT, you moron!"

OMG Robin!!! I just saw Beep Me! That's so cool! Congrats to you and the WBH!

Congrats and best wished to sneaky ol' Robin and WBH!!!
Happy Birthday, Robin!
Continued boredom, with even more boredom (which can be less boring to you, provided it involves nothing stressful, or anything less than optimal where your bod is concerned), JZ!
Get better, Tom.
This has just been the weirdest week, here. And it's earworming me with Riley's line from As You Were, the one that goes, "Wheel never stops turning, Buffy. You're up, you're down."
Out of 144 episodes, that's the line that this week is bringing to mind, and it's not right.

Mostly lurking...
Oh, Robin! I've got goose bumps and shivers. I'm so happy for you. What a fun thing to spring at your birthday party!
JZ got to take a bath! How lovely! You take care of yourself, girl. Boredom and all.
Cindy, that ain't right at all. Hope everything is ok and that this week is better.
I'm all up and have coffee. msbelle is still trying to sleep in the living room, if Toto would let her. Although, he was pretty polite. He clearly wanted to be by her, but didn't want to disturb her, so he was lying next to the air bed. Then, as soon as her eyes opened, his tail went a waggin', and he jumped up on the air bed. So cute. He's lying next to her now. They're both getting a few more zzzzzzzzzzs.
Speaking of Toto. He's doing so great in the new place. There have been NO accidents...even when I've left for a while. I expected there to be tons of "Mom, I'm really not happy about all this change" accidents over the first week or so, but so far nothing. I keep giving him treats and praising him lots to keep it going. He is having a little trouble getting used to Upstairs!Neighbor walking by our door. He barks for a little bit and gets kind of hysterical. Poor guy just isn't used to that. I can tell already, though, that it is getting better. Last night we were all piled on the love seat, just hanging out with a snack and stuff, and upstairs neighbor came home. Toto almost ignored it. Then the door closed, and he went nuts. I think another few days, though, and we'll be good. I'm also gonna try to go out and introduce them one of these times I hear Upstairs!Neighbor come/go. I think that may help.

Just to be clear, I meant that about here (at b.org). The news here has been a weird mix of awful and wonderful.
How great to have msbelle there helping you to settle in, vw. I read her posts in Natter about what she's getting rid of, or doing in her own home, and can tell she's the right person for the job.
I'm also gonna try to go out and introduce them one of these times I hear Upstairs!Neighbor come/go. I think that may help.That's a great idea. Toto will start to learn Upstairs!Neighbor belongs there.
