I'm sorry about the job stuff, GC.
And thanks Fay for a) the stories (even if I am ded from teh cute which will make participating in today's meetings a tad difficult—go team zombie) and b) the heads up on the author. Nightlife looks good!

Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else
[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.

What is even happening?
Gloomcookie, I'm so sorry about your GF's job. What a thing to happen. I understand it wasn't intentional, but it's still pretty mind blowing.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I love you like Winchesters.Love this turn of phrase.
Okay, this is the second day when I woke up at 3:30 and can't go back to sleep. It's just wrong.
And, frankly, the tv is better if I just stay up too late. Right now? Not a damn thing on that I can try to fall asleep watching. Where's a program on ancient Greece when you need one? And why does everything on my dvr require my actual attention?

Because books.
GC, that's horrible! I'm so sorry for GF.

Also, someone took a dump in the consular waiting room yesterday. Big steaming pile of human fecal matter, not in a particularly inconspicuous place. I guess that's one way to complain about the customer service.

There are no words. Aside from holy shit.
ION, Fay has slain me with cute. Ben's kindergarten teacher had a bear who went home with the one of the kids every weekend, named Kinder. Which was kind of an uninspired name, and the bear itself was not very cuddly or furry. (But had experienced Extreme Bathing hundreds of times.)
Barney and Chester and the gang sound much more adorable.

Lucy's entire menagerie is due for some extreme bathing. She could probably use some herself, but I don't think I can get her in the machine.

Well, Sail, next time you're in Chicago...
It's going to have to be soon, I need a pedicure. ;P
I love Fay's stories. I think she should write children's books. IJS, with all the real life stuff like Jilli, Clovis, Ple, the Bean and other assorted Buffistacular people/places/things she knows, she could write even better than C.S. Lewis's Narnia series.

Silly isn't even the word. Did you go to bed early?
In girly TMI news I got my period this morning. Sixteen days after the last one started.
::bangs head against desk::
That is Not Right.
