I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

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.

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

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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
"it's not fair!"
The kid is right, if that's any consolation.

Vortex, I am so, so very sorry for your loss.

ION, I resigned yesterday from my new job. I felt like I was showering daily in meanness and apathy, and I was spiraling into a very bad mental place. So, I quit.
Guess what? No school-related nightmares for the first time in weeks last night. I am stressed, but I did right.
Anyone know of a job, teaching or otherwise? I'm REAL good at lots of things.

“Not dead yet!”
Damn, Erin-- so sorry that you felt that's what you had to do, but on the other hand, go you for recognizing it was sending you to a Bad Place. Lots of new job ~ma headed your way.

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
Oh wow, Erin. Good on you, and I hope something much better comes up quickly.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Holy shit, Erin. I know how desperately you were looking for work right before the school year started, so for you to quit? That place has to be unbelievably toxic (though I guess now we know why they still had openings so close to the beginning of the year). I'm vibing hard for something better.

Oh, shit, Erin. It hadn't gotten any better, huh? Dang. I was hoping those horrible kids were an anomaly. Sorry they weren't.
Fingers crossed something better comes up really quickly. :(

thanks. Not an easy decision, but I was having hyterical panic attacks at the THOUGHT of going there -- burst into tears when I sat down to work on lesson plans, etc.
I'm SO glad I'm out. I never want to feel like that again.

I called today to arrange to come in to get my stuff. 5 teachers out.
There were some good teachers and good students there, but...the best way I can explain it is like spending money and hour thinking of, buying and making a delicious, nutricious meal, bringing it it in...and half the people knocked it contemptuously into the gutter and took a shit on it. While blocking the hungry people from getting a crumb.
