[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.

"Christmas Day, everyone loves you. Then, you wake up on the 26th, just another fat man in a bad suit."
--Detective John Munch.,
I love Emmett, y'all. Not in a creepy "waitin' till he's marryin' age" way, but I think he's great.
Santa...I sorta believed in it, but it's hard when you're a kid who might actually *need* a miracle at her house. I sort of wish my mother had never told me something *quite* so fantastic.
They're reporting now that at least one of the hostages has been released.
Now they're saying both hostages have been released.
Hubby and I went to the doctor this morning. I wish we had separate appointments, but it's more practical for us to share. I had a blood test to check my A1C number, and it was down significantly from last time, though not ideal. Hubby's response was, "Well, not what we want, but better." I got annoyed, feeling like I just go the "Hm, an A. But that could have been an A+, couldn't it?" thing from a parent.
I would have preferred the vindication before the critique, "Hey, better, but it needs to come down." Hubby thinks that's very wrong headed of me--it got very tense for awhile, he hates when I challenge him on anything--because the affirmation should come last so it sticks.
Which order do people prefer to hear that sort of thing, praise mixed with the acknowledgement that more work needs to be done? To me, hearing the negative first feels like the negative is the first thing that comes to mind and the positive is an afterthought.
Praise - you already knew that it had to come down more - so long as it's going down that should be enough. (Like, it went down last time, it's gone down a gain - whoo hoo downward trend.)
