Aww. Kara's a sweetheart. A scary-smart, original-thinking, take-over-the-world sweetheart.

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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

The status is NOT quo.
G'morning all. I am happily ensconced in the lovely Westward Look Resort and Spa in Tucson. My mom and I decided to give each other a nice room and a couple of spa treatments in lieu of buying gifts this Christmas, which I'm voting an excellent decision so far. My aunt, uncle, and cousin live nearby and my gram is staying with them for the next six weeks, so Christmas with family plus bonus spa!
I've had a bit of a morning, however, which I will share with you all for your mocking pleasure. Consider it an early Christmas gift. It was really very simple: I was trying to walk outside to sit on the little balcony, sip coffee, and enjoy the crisp desert winter morning. When I sat on one of the patio chairs, however, I failed to account for the rain last night and completely soaked my jeans. Went inside, used a hairdryer to dry my bum, and then walked back towards the balcony. My mom had just wiped the seat for me and we were both laughing...which was when I walked into the (closed) glass door that I thought she'd left open for me. Coffee everywhere and both of us laughed so hard that we could barely breathe.
I think I need to borrow Cass' padded hamster ball.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Kara: Yes! But my best present ever is to have you for my mom.
What a love bunny.
Suzi, go steam your sinuses, and suck on zink lozenges. The steam will have the added affect of making your cute short haircut curlier and cuter.

Kara is cute and funny.
I just laughed until I broke something over Kristin's slapstick routine.

This is the best present ever. From your stories about your mom (even little mentions like this one), I always get this feeling of this warm, wonderful, nuturing person. I'm so glad you're having this time together, Kristin. Merry Christmas.

That's what you get for trying to walk before you've ingested coffee, Kristin.
I used to walk into glass doors occasionally down in Florida where they're ubiquitous.

Aww. Thanks Cindy. And yes, that's her exactly with the added bonus of goofy, spontaneous, and fun.

Well, at least you didn't injure yourself too badly.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Off to work. I gotta work tomorrow.
I think the problem with this is not so much that I don't have the holiday off, as that I never get extra days off without having to plan it out in advance, get permission, and use PTO.

About to start my second to last performance of A Christmas Carol for this year. Thank the gods.
After the second show and after striking all the sound equipment, I get to have dinner & drinks with friends from San Diego! Then it's home to pack myself up and crash for a few hours, before driving to the airport in the morning for my flight home to MI. Hopefully my 2.5 hour layover at O'Hare won't be too painful.
