And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I feel exactly the opposite.

I think that is a sign of the depth of the courage and strength.

Car~ma for MM's trip today.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

You are incredibly brave and strong.

I feel exactly the opposite.

Trust us on this one. Your demons may be telling you otherwise, as they do for all of us on some things. But while we're hurting for you, we're also very proud of you, and hopefully some of that will be a help when you're struggling.

The Emotional side isn't really listening to the Rational side. Not sure it ever does....

The Emotional side will come around eventually. Or, at least tone down to a dull roar of peaceful resignation. This is one of those things that takes time. I hate saying it just as much as I hated having to learn it the hard way.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The Emotional side isn't really listening to the Rational side. Not sure it ever does....

I think that's pretty much what the Emotional side is made for. Sometimes they coincide, sometimes you have to go with one or the other, and hopefully you end up with a balance between them over the long term. If it were a wimpy little Emotional side that always listened to reason, it wouldn't be worth having one at all.

I'm breaking for you, Sean. But you're a good man, and you're doing what's right. And even so, that doesn't ever make it easy.

I really love you guys.

Sorry about the screwed up glowing AC compressor, Joe.

I am too, but I kinda wish I could have seen it.

Me three. Get it straight, people! Metaphorical meltdowns call for punctuational hugs; literal meltdowns call for flickr sets!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

In my brain it was scary yet beautiful. Glad you made it to the shop OK, MM.

speaking of my brain... This morning I drove past a guy who was wearing a long-sleeved blue sweatshirt, a red vest and a red & blue cap but when I first glimpsed him I thought he was Spider-Man. Yes, I am a geek.
