Thanks, Laga. They are actually great people - well, most of them ( it's a big family) - but they all live up in Iowa and I live in Kansas City, so I don't see them as much as I would like. I can't drive that far and it is now way too expensive to fly.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
boss just asked me if my first choice place to transfer is indeed my first choice. Keeping fingers crossed that's where I'm going. It'd be close enough to walk to (in an hour).

Don't feel bad. These things happen.
I was feeling guilty about even contemplating not going back East to my sister's for Christmas, until she decided "Wouldn't it be fun to have Christmas in VT rather than Boston?" Thereby making it:
1) more complicated to get to, and
2) more expensive (since Montreal is the closest airport)
So I stopped feeling guilty and just blatently asked my BiL to give me miles if they wanted me to come. How much awesomer is my BiL than my sister? He offered to pick me up and drop me off in Montreal so I wouldn't have to rent a car.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Lady friend. I love it, it's so 70s.
Also? Who knew that I had it good with it only being 80 degrees in my house (no we don't have air conditioning). Still I am tempted to price out A/C window boxes.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Someone tell me it will be okay, please?
quester, if you were skipping a family wedding to do lines of coke off the ass of the hooker you just picked up in Central America, *that* might be a lame reason to miss a family wedding.
But a triple-whammy of respiratory infection, fibromyalgia flare-up, and CFS flare-up is, in fact, a good enough reason to miss whatever you need to. IMO.

Steph says it so much better than I ever could, so I'll just point up.

It would, however, at least be a FUN reason to miss a family wedding.
