That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

[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.

Oh ick, Cindy. I just woke up from a nightmare myself, heart racing, so I sympathize.

What is even happening?

Aw Kristin, you poor thing. You have enough going on. Nightmares, cut it out!

How are things with Drew's family?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I dreamed I was a character in a Tim Minear show, so I was fearing for my life....

I woke up to a thumping sound in the house. I've still no idea. It may have been the kitties careening around. It may have been birds slam-dancing on the roof.

It's very white out there. It's also 21 degrees. At 9:15 in the morning.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

This is why I refused pain killers after I had my babies.
Seriously?

What was especially charming is that my subconscious took my current anxieties about Drew and combined them with my prior trauma about divorce to make a nightmare mixed drink. Which has left me hungover and shaky. FEH. My subconscious is on the list.

How are things with Drew's family?

Much the same. His mom is still in the hospital. They're having another conference next Friday to determine options for her going home eventually. His dad seems to still be in denial about the fact that some kind of permenant care is going to be necessary (though I think he knows it's inevitable) and no one wants to talk openly about any of it.

There is frozen stuff on the grass. The weather gods are still angry. Someone sacrifice a Canadian! Or bribe them to keep their cold. Either.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Many many vibes for Kristin & Drew. (viiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiibes)

I have an annoying cramp that won't go away. It feels like a stitch, except I (obviously) haven't been jogging recently. According to the internets, it's probably just my round ligaments adjusting themselves, but damn, it's irritating. All my errands will have to be done at half-speed today.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

What is with the nightmares last night? I dreamt I drove my car off an embankment into the ocean.

ION my glee at last night's discovery of yahoo messenger capabilities on my phone is now matched by my despair at discovering you have to sign out, you can't just exit the function. I used up 1000 minutes in my sleep.

They're having another conference next Friday

so back to San Diego again?

Oh, Kristin. Your subconscious in on my list, too. Sheeeesh. The divorce is still fresh, too. That's a big life change, and no matter how much you know it was right, it's still hard.

Much the same. His mom is still in the hospital. They're having another conference next Friday to determine options for her going home eventually. His dad seems to still be in denial about the fact that some kind of permenant care is going to be necessary (though I think he knows it's inevitable) and no one wants to talk openly about any of it.

I'm so sorry. This must be so hard on all of them, and on you, because you're probably in the Other-Families-Are-So-Different Zone, too. The differences between dh's family and mine still surprise me, when there's a crisis.

Extra love to you and Drew.

Seriously?
Seriously. Well, I did take Motrin. They offered me some prescription (some common one -- narcotic, I think -- but the name is totally escaping me, now). I asked if nausea was a side-effect. They said it was possible. I said, "No, thanks. Got any more of those ice pads?"

And the last time I needed a root canal, there was a delay between the diagnosis of need and the endontist appointment. My regular dentist gave me a script for [something related to oxycodone]. I filled it, because it's good to have in case of emergency, but never took it. I ended up throwing it away, when it expired. I hate to take stuff.
