One of the things that used to freak me out the most when Joe was/is gone was when the dogs would start growling very low. I know they were warning me of something outside and yes, I'd rather be warned, I guess, and most of the time what they were "warning" about was a squirrel, but it still wigs me out every single time.
Giles: Stop that, you two. Riley: He started it... Xander: He called me a bad name! I think
it was bad; it might have been Latin.

[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.

That's scary, Steph. My dogs usually scare the shit out of me when people knock on our door with their barking. But the good thing is that it scares the knocker, too.

BTW, juliana, thanks for the link. I'll check it out.
Steph, when we lived in our college town, a friend of mine had someone half-wander through her front door one evening. Had the wrong house. Needless to say, she didn't leave her door unlocked anymore.

I had a drunk woman walk into our apartment not long after we'd moved here. She was obviously out of it and just said, "huh?" when I told her to get the fuck out.
Needless to say, the deadbolt stayed locked at all times after that.

She was all sleepy when I left. And she was starting to wake up about every 10-20 minutes to push her pain meds button. But I think she'll be ok. She's kind of funny when she's all drugged.
I walked in and said, "Mom, you have gorgeous nails!" She said, "I got them done last night. I couldn't stand the thought of looking at them get worse and worse for weeks till I can leave the house."
That's my mom.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Y'all talk a lot. Not that it hasn't been observed before. I'm just putting it out there.
Hec needs to send PC music to be pissed at your family by. The mopy music he sent me did wonders. Which is my way of saying thanks Hec!
I have some pretty awesome friends, blinvisible and fleshy types.

P-C, you should give the girls US Treasury Bonds. A face value of $100 will cost about half that. It still looks all shiny and says $100, they just have to wait a bunch of years before cashing it.
I'm sorry that you have this to deal with on your birthday. I know all the financial stuff is scary but try and pace yourself. Everything doesn't have to happen all at once.
I know this year that you are starting today will be the best year so far, only to be surpassed by next year, and then the next.
