Thanks Calli - if they don't call back with the right resolution, I will go that way.
I think I need a F2F scrum today. When can y'all get here?
I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

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.

For a week! LA would have been a forensic challenge. Thanks for not murdering me.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Ugh, Suzi! I hope it's easily resolved and refunded.
On the other hand, I'm very good at being a Designated Socializer/Icebreaker for introverted friends when we're at large social events together. I'll do the mingling/talking to strangers, while my friend stands next to me. Ask Cass, we do this every year at the Vampire Ball.
It's like socialization training wheels.
And awesome.

Dude, good times. Totally no stress for me (and I'd been out walking to unpeople) and excellent food and conversation times. I smile thinking of that lunch.
It was really nice and easygoing. Plus, unplanned bonus Cass time!
I love "scrum of snogging."

Awww, Cybervixen. Sniff. Miss her. Now that first F2F. That was good times, man...
We were waltzing! Right into the pit boss! I felt further hijinx might be cause for us getting banninated.
True, true dat.

Acupuncture was pretty awesome. I felt so relaxed. She gave me some nasty herbs to take, though. Ew. And was more pricey than I'd been quoted. Still, it was pretty damned soothing. I go back on Monday.

Mostly lurking...
So, my boy just backed out of plans tonight and in the e-mail he said, "vw bug's not feeling so good." I want to respond and say, "That's the lamest excuse ever." Probably shouldn't, though, right?

no. It's better not to get too detailed.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Actually the lamest excuses are sometimes the most believable.
And at first my brain objected and corrected "too good" to " so well, " but I got over it and started thinking that is just ambiguous enough to work.
Seldom eschew disambiguation when sending regrets.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I feel one of the hidden advantages of coupledom is to be able to back out of stuff because of the real (or even made-up) illness of your partner.
