Laga, that sounds like one of Garrison Keillor's commercials for Powdermilk Biscuits or Be-Bob-a-Re-Bop Rhubarb Pie.
Mal: Cut it out. Job's not done until we're back on Serenity. Zoe: Sorry, sir. Didn't mean to enjoy the moment.

[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.

The espresso brownies I'm bringing to Mom's tomorrow just came out of the oven. They smell so good, I'm not sure if they're going to last that long.

I'm supposed to go pick up Byron in an hour. They say that he's in pain and grumpy and confused, and I'm scared as hell. But the vet says they recover more quickly at home, and they have a pain patch on his skin and more pain meds for me to administer to help him through the first few days. I don't know how I'm going to do this. I'm so scared.

Kristin, Byron is going to be uncomfortable for a little while, and he may be grumpy, but he's also going to be so relieved and happy to see his beloved human. As scared as you are, you'll be able to do it because you love him and will be a comfort to him.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Kristin-I've known several tripod cats and they all were totally at ease with it and got exactly around like their more-legged brethren.

Thank you. And I meant to say earlier to everyone that I don't need any more brackets and don't want to continue to dominate the thread--I just know many of you wanted updates and thought I would give them here. Please don't feel that you have to reassure me over and over.
Thank you everyone for your love and support. I'll let you know how he's doing when I get him home. These first few days are going to be the hardest and more heart-breaking, but I have to remember that he's going to recover and be his loving self again soon.

Our wings are not tired.
Kristin, we care about you and we care about Byron. Please continue to update us. I know it will be easier on both of you when he is home being loved.

Kristin, you'll do great. Also, you have a nice little nest for him to come home to.

Well shit. I'm at the Red Cross and can't donate due to low iron. And of course they pick today to tell me my blood type (O-, neg some other factor) is typically used for kids with cancer, so I feel doubly bad.
