Woo hoo -- for Christmas with the family.
Inara: So, explain to me again why Zoe wasn't in the dress? Mal: Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. 'Sides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. It's the whole... air-flow.

[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.

Our wings are not tired.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Well, not really. We aren't going until mid-January. But still! Joe hasn't been home in over a year. Neither great-grandmothers have seen her in over a year.
I'm so 'cited.

we got a big fat check because it was retroactive to the time of his diagnosis
That's what we've heard. We try not to talk about how handy a few thousand dollars would be.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
How? Why? How?
Three excellent questions.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Has anyone here ever gone through the process for disability approval? We've been futzing with this for near on 2 years, and we're on our first appeal.
Yesterday we got something that I think is hopeful, a notice of an appointment for Hubby to see a doctor to be evaluated. Granted, the doctor could say, "It's in your head, you could go be a construction worker, get outta here, ya mooch," but being given the appointment does say they think we've got a case, right?
I can't imagine how they could deny your husband for disability, but if they do after seeing this doctor you might want to see if there is a lawyer who can advocate for him in your area. I was about to be denied until I ended up in the hospital.
Connie, I'll just echo what others have said -- the fact that they want him to see a doctor is a good sign.
When they granted it we got a big fat check because it was retroactive to the time of his diagnosis. That was a wonderful surprise.
That happened with my dad, too. (He's on SSI for degenerative disc issues and other nerve-related issues, not for his heart issues.)
