Buffistas

Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Sue, my condolences.

I've spent the last counts on fingers 10 months asea. I *am* the dumbest person in the room more often than not. However, this has been great for getting me to get over that particular bit of self-consciousness. It's that or fail, and I hate that even more. It's been really hard, don't get me wrong. And uncomfortable and icky and sometimes I want to crawl under my desk and hide. But by god, when I figure something out, or make a recommendation that people actually follow, I momentarily feel like the biggest genius on the planet.

And then someone asks me a question and I don't even understand the question, much less have an answer.

Oddly, it's probably been good for my confidence long term. Thick of it, NSM.

The status is NOT quo.

Sue, I'm very sorry. Hugs to you.

Brenda, so much health~ma to your pup!

Today can bite me. Actually, this whole damned year can bite me.

Pico was lucky that he found S's apartment and that you took him in. Life of Riley cat. =)

Yeah, he had a good life, but he was a good cat. I would often say to Pico that I wish I had 12 cats just like him. You were a good friend for coming too, even though you knew you would cry.

Because books.

I'm so sorry, Sue. Pico was very well-loved.

brenda, I don't know if I missed it, but what did Lucy rupture? All kinds of health~ma to her, and get-through-it-all~ma to you.

Oh Brenda, I just read about Lucy. Health-ma to her. Buffista pets: you can all just stop it! stop getting sick/injured/old!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm so sorry, Sue.

Brenda, recovery-ma to Lucy.

Yeah, Megan E was damned sweet to go with Sue.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Having drafted a clickwrap license myself, they are pretty ridiculously draconian. If it bothers you you shouldn't buy the software.

Yeah, but as someone who is not a lawyer I wanted to make sure I was not reading it wrong before I did that. Also, if I am not reading it wrong,I will write the software maker to ask them if this was really their intention. Both reasonable steps.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Least-painful resolution-ma to PK.

My sympathies, Sue. It's never easy, even when it's the right thing. Megan, it's great you were able to go along, even just to handle the crying part so Megan didn't have to. Only half-kidding, you know.

Oh Brenda, I'm so sorry about Lucy. Here's to simpler solutions and extra-speedy healing, and less stress to you.

Life, be easier! And a lot nicer!
