Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[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.
Yay for the undisclosed secret thing that I'll swear I never heard here!
People at DH's co are trying to think of ways to get him to stay, without paying attention to anything he has said for the last three years. And they said something about himpossibly being bored at new job. Which sent me on a page long screed about balance. Umm, I have a few feelings about this.
Woo, vw!!
Eeeeee! vw, that's wonderful news! You'll be the most ridiculously indulgent snuggly loving auntie ever! Where do your brother and SIL live? Can you be the cool city-dwelling aunt who shows the sprog all kinds of nifty haunts and museums and quirky bookstores and gives him/her that first illicit cup of coffee and all that good stuff? 'Cause you'd rock at that.
Also, beth, please give Matt billions of hugs and congratulations from me. He's been suffering in that job, I think, ever since we met, and a better and happier one is long overdue.
I also really, really hope he has a mole in his old job who can report in detail on the catastrophic disintegration that's sure to happen once he's gone.
Where do your brother and SIL live?
They're in KS.

Oh, how I wish! Instead I will have to spoil from afar.
Woo hoo, vw!
Surely you can arrange for even one or two trips to the big city for the sproglet? I think I first went to visit my godmother in LA at 10, and my aunt and uncle in Brookline when I was 15 or 16, and it was magical both times.
Of course, 10 is a long way off for a critter whose existence is still a secret, but still. You should pencil it into your long-term agenda.
It's definitely penciled in.
Oh, god. I cannot even express how happy this whole thing makes me. It's been a really shitty week, and that was about the best thing that could have happened. They've been trying so hard, and at Christmas were so frustrated, because they really wanted to have news at Christmas.
