[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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

And you know what? I'm *positive* that no one at work has a bottle or flask stashed in their desk.

Heh. We just had the following system-wide email go out:

If you left a bottle of Liquor in the Men's Restroom, you can claim if from Txxxx Mxxxx after identifying the type / brand. :-)

It's likely a specimen or evidence, but its darn funny to see that.

15 years? How many attacks has he had?


Steph L. - Oct 09, 2007 6:41:20 am PDT #9064 of 10001
Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

The first few heart attacks are the worst, Teppy, for you and for the cardiologists.

He's already had 4. Or possibly 5. And he just keeps. on. going. He really IS the Energizer Bunny.

Hubby has single-handedly raised the heart attack survival percentages for the entire county.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Meanwhile, Daniel Radcliffe is a grownup, or something.

Turned 18 in July.

WTF?

Indeed. He looks HORRID with that mustache. Blech.

(Yes - mark your calendars. I said DR looked "blech")

wee boy!!

You obviously haven't seen the full-frontal nude pictures from Equus cause NSM with the wee.

My Dad is 65, and puts a lot of other 65-year-olds to shame. Like, ones who have no heart disease. He does yard work for a retired "lady friend" (dad is quick to mention that no, she's not THAT kind of lady friend; she's just a friend who is a lady) during the spring and summer (and early fall), and lately he's talked about getting a part-time job bagging groceries just because he's bored in the late fall/winter.

All a heart attack does is slow him down for a little while. And if I inherited his heart disease (which I sincerely hope I did not), I hope I got his sheer stubborn keep-on-going-ness as well.

{{{Tep}}} I'm sorry you're having a really rough morning and that your co-workers weren't more compassionate.

Steph, you are not evil and I'm sorry your dad is in hospital again.

But after 15 years, I can't keep reacting in the same sort of immediate-crisis-panic mode.

Steph, I think it's perfectly reasonable to react to each new development independent of all the others. While the big picture may be a continuum, each time you get news, something changes for you and your family.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm so sorry your Dad is going through another round of heart troubles, Tep, and that your co-workers aren't being more supportive. Tell them your invisible friends in the glass box said to take you out to lunch.
