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.

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

What is even happening?
Oh vw, I'm so glad you went. Do you feel good about it? You read like you do.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
vw, you do change lives. No doubt about it.

Do you feel good about it?
Yeah, I really do. They asked great questions that showed they were really trying to understand. It was good. It feels really good to be a part of offering understanding about this tough illness, you know? And we're catching them early, before they're really getting a lot of the stereotypes from their rotations and residencies. So, they get to see someone and have a face next to the diagnosis, so they can dismiss negative comments, and say, "Well, that hasn't been my experience." It really is kind of getting a whole new set of ideas out there with a new generation of treatment providers. It's kind of cool to be a part of it.
Also, having that level of professor tell me that my writing is really wonderful and articulate and needed is a HUGE ego-booster!
And now I'm gonna order BBQ takeout to be delivered and watch Desperate Housewives for the rest of the night.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Yay, vw!!! That is all great news, though not surprising.
Bev and Suzi, I'm glad your mom's are doing better.
Word of advice? Try not to be an only child. The decisions are hard.
Damn. I'm screwed.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Oh, it's so good to read the GREAT news from Bev & Suzi & vw. YAY!!!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
The teacher's exact words? "You're an inspiration to these students. They don't only learn from you; you change their lives."
I think you have a new tag.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
vw, that is indeed awesome. It's a huge big thing to remember on those not-so-good days.
