It seems to have stopped raining here. I'm not convinced it will last, though.

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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm afraid not, vw.

not your mom's socks.
Trudy, much healing and good care to your mom - and less eye-watering at your new job (happy new job by the way).
{{Sean}} everyone here is very wise and cares about you a lot. Seconding all of that wisdom, including and especially the go visit Kristin part.
I've been skimming and skipping like a mad thing - trying to do a bunch of stuff all at the same time, while you're doing another bunch of stuff as well, is teh hard.

“Not dead yet!”
Gronklies.
It's going to be in the nineties again today. And probably rain. Which is okay. But I keep looking longingly at my SF forecast and ticking off the days.
In the meantime, more coffee.
Trudy, I somehow missed what's going on (see: lack of coffee) but I can tell it involves your mom and healing ~ma, so please, to add mine to the rest.
Coffee.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
My back is out again.
I'm starting to fucking hate my body like never before. Like, not even during puberty did I hate it this much.

Our wings are not tired.
Hivemind help request. My nephew is getting married and this is my sister's one shot at being mom of the groom. She is a large woman with a great love of brown. I found this at Catherines [link] and this at JCPenny [link] The wedding is in the Adirondacks and outside, so not fancy, but she does want to look good. What other plus size sites should I try. Torrid had nothing for me.

Laura, Fatshionista has a pretty comprehensive list of plus size stores (brick & mortar as well as online) with reviews.
An excellent site!

{{Trudy}} Much get-well~ma for your mother. Bleeding ulcers are very scary, but very easy to treat once they're found.
Is there anyone here who would be wiling to take a look at my resume? I did some radical rewriting of it, so I can take a copy of it with me on an interview, today. They've got a copy of an older one, but it very nearly didn't get me the interview, so I need someone to take a good look at my new one to see if it's catchier.

Laura, there are some links to places here: [link]
I cannot speak for any of them, unfortunately.
MM, sorry about your back.
Trudy, I hope your mom is doing well today and that your eyes have recovered.
1.5 days until vacation...
