She's the only person I know who can talk to a complete stranger in the grocery store, get them to stop yelling at their kid, and make both the stranger and the kid feel better.
She's clearly a gift. I aspire to being able to do this.
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

[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.

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.
Kristin, that picture is heart-melty.
Is. So. True. Thank you so much for posting it, as it makes me as happy to see that snugglefest as ... as... nope, there's nothing comparable. It is in a category of its own. Heart's ease.
I'm so sorry for your loss, Scrappy. Much hugs and ~ma to your whole family.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Scrappy, all possible strength, love, and peace to you and your family. There's a candle lit here for all of you.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

My mother about strangled her brother when he gifted me with a toy drum kit for Christmas when I was three. It did not live at his house, and it mysteriously disappeared a month later. All I had left was one lonely little drumstick.
One of my friends will take the batteries out of any toy that makes electronic noise and tell her kids that the noise part broke. Her oldest kid is five now and starting to catch on, though, I think.

People! Wake up and come play. I'm having to get work done, and that's no fun!
