Fuck, Drew, the universe needs to let the fuck up already.

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm sorry, Drew. It's more scary shit and stress when I'm sure you don't have a lot left to deal with it. I hope it goes smoothly.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh Drew, I'm sorry all this keeps piling on you. I hope the surgery goes well tomorrow.

Our wings are not tired
Okay, I'm headed to bed for a bit.
I just want best possible outcome. Mom never expected to outlive my Dad, his death was sudden and she's been the one in bad health for years. She's heartbroken. They had been married for 49 years. I don't want her in constant pain. She's said repeatedly that she just wants to go. I'm actually very calm about that, and okay with it. But this? This is not the way it should go down. I'm sure she's in a lot of pain right now, and in the midst of grieving, and frightened about all of it. What's going to happen is going to happen, I just hope that if it's a bad outcome I get to give her at least one last kiss and tell her I love her.
Thank you everyone for all of your very kind words.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
You are very strong and brave, Drew. I will keep you in my thoughts and hope for the best for your mom.

ND much ~ma for your mom, and for you and kristin. Safe travels home.
Yay for CJ! Way to go!
GG hOMFG. The brute squad is looking into an airlift.
I want to learn how to can.
We are at Raqs. Mallory-Iris convergence! Please to keep your pets indoors. They were up doing their best separated at birth routine until nearly 11 pm. Of course that didn't keep iris from waking at 6 and running to mallorys room to get him. She is despondently waiting while the rest of the house sleeps and the sun comes up.
And we get to bring the wet dishrag formerly known as iris to aunt sparky's tonight! I can't wait to see you and DH and sass Sparky. But first, let the games begin.

CJ earned his yellow belt in Karate tonight.
Go CJ!
I think it'll be good for him. I've got a good feeling about this. I think this will be a good base for CJ in Denver.
I think so too. I think it was really a great thing to get him started in…and so quickly!
And I’ve read more, so {{{Drew}}}. So much surgery~ma for your mom today.
Of course that didn't keep iris from waking at 6 and running to mallorys room to get him. She is despondently waiting while the rest of the house sleeps and the sun comes up.

Congratulations to CJ on earning yellow belt!

“Not dead yet!”
Jilli, look what I saw at Barnes and Noble yesterday! First thing I thought when I saw the dump and the book was, "OMG, I hope Gothic Charm School gets something half this striking."
The book itself is lovely-- hardback, each of the pages has the same scrolled floral illustration that's at the top of the dump and while you can't tell from the photos (taken with my iPhone, so sorry about the quality) the coffin on the cover is actually a cut out and the girl figure is actually made of felt and then covered with clear acrylic or plastic.
(It's a YA, btw.)
