But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History  

[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.

Daisy Jane once sent me a lovely pair of Monkey Toe Socks.

I loved them and wore them to death.

Literally. The funeral was today. They came apart in the dryer, and I had to admit that there was no coming back from this one, not this time.

They were, however, great. And they shall be missed.

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

Hil had a brownie mix once that claimed to make 13 servings. We spent a good bit of an afternoon - well, the mathier among us did - attempting in vain to find any possible way to do that.
Pie chart! Pie!

(I want pie)

But candles? Cass and I share the candle love. She totally has me beat in numbers, though. I think I only have...hmm, probably 20 or so tealights and other candles in the living room.
Our luv is sooo pur legendary.

And I got rid of so many holders before I moved too. Well more than half, actually. Which kinda scares me.

There is one 15-tealight candelabra stand that is new though. I love it.

This is why I can buy 1700+ candles (1500 were tealights) and really not think it is excessive.

I stand in awe.

ETA: Actually, I recline in awe.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If I didn't fear a conflagration, I'd have more candles. I have 15 or so in my living room, 6 or 7 in the bathroom, and I just can't think of putting them in my bedroom. Like I don't hang pictures in there. Not quite sure why.

The status is NOT quo.

Cass, did you hang candles over the bed again? I thought that was SO very cool in your old place in SD.

I fear no power outage.

So long as the laptop is charged.

YAY meeting Sparky! Her apartment is adorably cute and very nicely located. Much like Sparky, now that's she's nicely located in DC! :) (And thank you for the compliment, I am smiling and blushing here in my living room)

I can't believe Vortex and Erin haven't met! What a travesty! They totally need to meet.

Also, YAY pictures from David! Cause I was totally googling people earlier today at work, and saving and printing out pictures, trying to decide if I really felt ready to chop off all the hair. So I am looking at all those, and contemplating. I'm thinking I might go for the much-shorter-but-not-truly-short cut this time, and just plan to go all-out next time I get it cut.

Of course, as soon as I decided a day or two ago that I really needed more than a trim, since then my hair is totally behaving and looking nice. Not fair!

I haven't! I should though. I didn't at first because I was going to move so soon. But since that was a year ago... The lanterns are lined up in my guest bath, currently. I just need some new hooks and some wiring fishing line. Project!

I *really* loved the way they looked all flickering. Candles are just soothing to me. Visual SSRIs, kinda.

My sympathies. Candles pretty!
