Ah...Beth's read Gavin de Becker, too. "The Gift of Fear". Awesome book.
Stop that right now! I can hear the smacking!

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.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
connnie, peace to you, Hubby and his family.

Not just his book - but some self defense classes from a local women's shelter - people who have seen what works and what doesn't on a regular basis.
but it is a very good book.

Our computer system at work went belly up, so I took that as a sign to ditch and come home so I could nap.
Now that I'm home, I'm wide awake. Gah. Need nap so I can have a brain for homework.
Hec - I know you will do what is best for Emmett.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
That little kid is screwed.
I know. It's horrible. I know him well, and really like him. He's like Emmett's big brother.
I've got Emmett tonight and tomorrow and the coming weekend.
Yeesh. We've got to change all our "okay to pickup" lists at school and aftercare.

Because books.
We've got to change all our "okay to pickup" lists at school and aftercare.
Yup. A must.
I feel awful for EM, and for Emmett (because it's way scary to have an adult you know and trust wig out), but I really feel for his kid. That's rough.

Hey, P-C. Is your tag a Futurama quote? The "chuh" sounds an awful lot like an Amy Wong expression.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Peace-ma for connie.
Safety-ma for EM. I hate bugfuck crazy exes.
Sigh. Someone on Freecycle was giving away a box of Science Fiction & Fantasy magazines (in plastic covers) from the 1960s and 70s. I didn't respond quickly enough.
