Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.  

[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.

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

OH MY GOD.

I got so caught up in the polyamorous/serial comma discussion that I forgot to recount the hilarious lack of tact I encountered today at my office health fair. I mainly went for the free flu shot, but there was a chiropractor there offering free 10-minute massages too, so I signed up for one of those. And naturally, part of getting the free massage was making small talk with the company rep and listening to his pitch while I waited for my turn. So I tick off the boxes on his little form for sore back and fatigue and mention that all of my current muscular aches and pains are due to carrying a new baby around, etc etc. And he says oh sure, and not getting enough sleep can also make back pain worse blah blah stresscakes...

And then he says, I shit you not, "Plus, if you haven't lost all of your pregnancy weight yet, that could also be a contributing factor."

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

(((Sean & S))) Tons of -ma for you both. Sean, I'm glad your mother is doing well.

Yay, no cancer, Susan!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

You know what else can give you a sore back?

Disposing of a body.

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

But that's a good pain. Or, at least, worth it.

The trick is to lift from your knees. Or so I've heard.

(PS, YesIhaveandthensomekthxbye)

{{{Sean}}} Hope you're both doing okay.

Jess, what did he attribute the sudden and crippling pain in his groin to?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Yay for cancer-free-ness for Susan and for Sean's mom.

Yay no cancer results, Susan! Awesome.

"Plus, if you haven't lost all of your pregnancy weight yet, that could also be a contributing factor."

OMG, why are people so... so... that way.
