My friend who moved to Cairo started a blog. Interesting stuff. She said that they got falafel for dinner, and her two older kids both started crying because it was "too spicy." I'm a bit confused by this, since I've seen one of these kids eat pickled jalapenos.
Does anybody mind if I pass out?

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.

Anne, may your mind be fully aware of the love so many people have for you, here and elsewhere, leading you to sweeter thoughts and healing dreams, as your body rests and restores itself for the rigors of the coming day. Sleep well.
So much this. I hope this passes quickly, Anne.
Also, I feel compelled to point out that Andi rocks.
Also also, FUCK CANCER.

Different kinds of hot hit you differently. When I was growing up I could eat (and enjoy) Chinese spicy far hotter than I would eat Mexican spicy.
(Also, the pickled jalapenos aren't really that hot, comparatively.)

Suzi, I totally have been sending health-ma to your mom and calm-ma to you. I meant to actually post that earlier, of course.

Thanks Jen, no worries. We are back into our usual holding pattern of what has become our everyday stress (the house, CJ's behavior problems, my insomnia, mom's rocky but non-critical health issues).
What the heck is up with boys and hating to bathe?

I'll keep people posted on how things are going. I finally had to sit down and admit to myself how bad things have been of late.
Yes, please keep us posted and don't hesitate to ask for whatever you need.

Ha! Right? I remember both of my nephews going through this phase. Dudes, I love you like nobody's business, but... take. a. shower. Now.

I think I had too many energy drinks today. Lately, loading up on caffeine has been the only way I've been able to concentrate (...yes, I know that's a problem. Got an appointment with my doctor to talk about it and maybe adjust my meds), but now I'm jittery and feeling very very awake. Stupid brain chemistry.

If I can be memememe for a minute: the billboard is up. Eeep.
ION, I concur that cancer fucking sucks donkey dick, and also autumn 2008 needs to STEP OFF NOW. (My autumn is more or less fine [touch wood], but I really have a problem with it fucking with my people, damn it.)
