Handing Down Stories: Oral History As Literature
Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Spike's Bitches 40: Buckle Up, Kids! Daddy's Puttin' the Hammer Down.
[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.
javachik, I love that picture. I'm glad the camera lasted long enough to get that gorgeous shot.
Hil, hope you get relief soon.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've got a bag of frozen edamame on it now. Seems to be helping some. (And I've learned that, when grabbing something from the freezer to be an ice pack, frozen berries is NOT the answer. I've still got some purple splotches on my rug from that.)

Oooh, that's a good one too. How does one choose?
And thanks for the kind words, WindSparrow.
Hil, hope your mouth pain goes away and fast. Is it wrong I giggled at the juice stains?

Hah! I used frozen strawberries once for a migraine when that was all I had that wasn't open....but they leaked anyway, and I have a red stain on my pillow (mostly it got on the towel I wrapped it in)

Aww, that sucks. The photo is beautiful, though. At least your camera went out, um... doing what it loved best, or something.Wow, this. That picture is stunning. I'm so sorry your beautiful camera was destroyed. I hate when stuff like that happens (and it's never the cheaper camera, is it?).
Oh Hil, so sorry that you're in pain.

The things you can learn from buffistas. I hope the pain goes away soon, Hil.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That is a beautifully exposed picture, java. You have a gorgeous dog, but everything else really comes together there.
Oh, Hil. I recommend having an icepack section of the freezer, wherer everything is good for application, whether they're actual icepacks or not.

Thanks ita and Kristin! (oh, and Kristin, it is the cheaper camera - if it had been Steve's Nikon, I'd be devastated.)
Chile is a good looking dog, as long as you don't look at her teeth! She was a rescue pup and didn't get enough nourishment her first few weeks (mom dog was dying of starvation while she was nursing the pups, terrible and true) so she didn't get the calcium she needed. The right side of her mouth is filled with teeth that will need to be pulled eventually because they're malformed and rotted looking. The left side is perfect.
