Vortex, I'm so sorry for your loss. Let me know if you need to be taken out for a meal, drinks, or just someone to cry on.

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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Stay safe, Fay.
All good thoughts to you and your family, Vortex.

In lighter news ...
It was the Labor Day weekend in the nation's capital, which meant wall-to-wall tourists. Most are nice people ... some of them ... sigh ....
Sunday afternoon I was in Georgetown - not only a hot spot for tourists, but there are three universities nearby - so the place was mobbed. Right near the center of all attractions I was waiting at the bus stop - a stop for the public transit buses, the Circulator buses, and one of the tour bus lines. It's an old section of town, so the sidewalks are narrow brick. A family of tourists - mom, dad, grandmother in a wheelchair, and two preteens - comes up and, rather than lining up against the buildings, stands in front of me. Mom positions herself in the middle of the sidewalk. Guy with a bike pushes past and dings mom, who immediately begins a rant about rude people and how she hates big cities because the number of rude people per capita is so high. She announces she's going to look at a store a couple of doors down ... and is back in a few minutes ranting about how she hated the way the store smelled. A tobacco store, which smelled, surprise!, of tobacco. After listening to mom rant about rudeness, nasty smells, and how much she hates big cities, my bus came and I left her to hate the place some more. sigh.

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

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Somewhere outside a child has been crying and shrieking, "it's not fair!" for the last five minutes.

hwæt
"it's not fair!"
The kid is right, if that's any consolation.
