[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.

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

sj, could you maybe cheer her up by telling her you're setting aside the money so that she can use it to visit for (insert next holiday/birthday event here) and give her something to plan for and look forward to?

She knows it's an open offer, but she doesn't have any PTO from work right now, so she can't really get away very easily. I'm planning on going up there in March. Maybe she'll be able to come out here for an engagement party or a shower. I know that not being here to help with wedding stuff is part of the reason she's upset, which I feel bad about.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

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.

Tons of ~ma for your grandmother, vw.

Ok...kind of have the story. They think that what she's actually experiencing right now is bad acid reflux, but some of the tests they did show that her heart is enlarged, which is indicative of a blockage somewhere. So, they're running more tests. Also, they're surprised that her 8-year-old stints are still good, so they may have to replace some of those.

Ugh. She's 88-years-old, but I wanted her to prove that my fear of not getting the interviews this summer was wrong. She can't die. She's not allowed.
