Spike's Bitches 37: You take the killing for granted.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Trudy, how's your tooth doing?
Kristin, you have my sympathies about the FUBAR scheduling.
Today is my mother's birthday. I called, first time I had the nerve to talk to her in months. Kept it short, which helps enormously. Turns out, my brother Dan's house got hit by lightning. There's a hole in the roof, and a buttload of fried appliances, and some fried plumbing as well. Much rejoicing that there were no injuries, and no fire. More bad news - one of Dan's high school friends' 20 year old son died of some kind of overdose - accidental, rather than suicidal, as far as they can tell. Still, sucks beyond belief for that family, and all their friends.
GC, I'm so sorry. Much peace to your GF and her whole family.
Thank for all the well-wishes. I'm home waiting for GF to get home to get all of the details. We're going to see him tomorrow afternoon.
continued ~ma to all who need it.
I'm closing a strange theatre today. They gave me keys and codes and combinations and left me here with a crew who are also unfamiliar with the place while they all went to a BBQ. It's going to be fun closing tonight!
Much ~ma to Toddson's and GC's families.
And a hint to Gloomcookie -- at least half of your job is to keep GF sane. However it takes.
Which is why you'll never hear me criticize Mission to Mars, despite its reputation. I took Hubs to see it so he could keep sane while his mother was dying.
As I said, however it takes.
Damn it. I'm getting heart palpitations (mitral valve prolapse -- click murmur), and I can't find my medication. It's not really dangerous, but it's really irritating, and there's a release of adrenaline that accompanies the palpitations, and a rush of adrenaline when I'm doing nothing more taxing than lying on the couch reading is really not fun -- my body thinks it should be reacting to something, so all my senses are on alert, but there's nothing there, and it's a crazy feeling, the chemical reaction of "Danger! High alert!" when there's nothing happening.
Heart~ma, Hil. (or at least finding meds~ma). That sounds worse than my panic/asthma combination. Ick.
Tooth~ma, Trudy. Hope it turns out to be easy to fix.
Loads of make it all work out~ma going out to GC, her GF, and our dear Toddson and family.
Happy birthday, meara. I'm very sorry that I missed you while you were out here, but glad to hear that you had a good time.
Jen, insent on the occasion of your birthday.
Eek, Hil, I hope it passes quickly.
Karl, how are you doing? I missed you last time you were around.
Karl, dear!

And now I have to go because Matilda is fussing and grumping and needs a bath to soothe and mellow her, but I had to get in a tacklehug before I left.
Tons of ~ma to GC and GF and GF's family.
Let's go, Yankees! Clap, clap, clapclapclap

To update the maxim, rooting for the Yankees is like rooting for Microsoft to have a good quarter.
So
not
rooting for the yankees is like thinking this is the year when the Comodore 64 makes its big comeback?

Trudy, I hope your tooth is okay. How's your hip??
My dentist was able to see me right away, thank heavens. I got into the chair and asked "Am I going to make it to karate tonight?"
Somewhere an angel got its black belt.
Fortunately, the break felt much worse than it was due to a funny angle thing. He was able to repair it in about half an hour without any anesthesia. I made it to class and got to do round kicks again!!!!! (hip is better too!)
Its a sad day when I pass up the chance to pout for some vicodin.
