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.

I'm sorry, vw. Maybe you could go back to the next (still less than where you started) dose and try to taper again in the Spring?

I hope you don't have too cold a winter.

In New England, what are the chances of a cold winter. :)

That said, I'm secretly hoping we get the "heat" that we didn't get during almost all of the summer during Jan/Feb and basically get near-autumn whether (which I consider THE primo New England season) all winter.

I also hope to be the king of everything and wear a shiny hat. And that Aimee gets a camel (sorry MM).

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

if a petite coworker with a noticeable bump asks you to order her uniform in size large, is it OK to congratulate her on her pregnancy or do you always have to wait for the momma to break the news?

I'd always err on the side of caution on that one.

Thank you everybody. Fay I finally got to sleep and dreamed of your classroom.

Friends DH and I took the kids on a field trip today. He was facing the same shunning as me for different reasons. It was good.

Oh and I offered to set up her iPhone for email 2 days ago.

Sparky, T is flying down here tonight to catch up with our friends after his conference.

I swear I don't come for a visit and gripe. Right Sparky?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

So I got my first oil bill of the season. 163 gallons (the tank was down below a quarter full from last winter). $570 dollars

After all the pirate riffing, I initially read this as 163 galleons.

le sigh.

do you always have to wait for the momma to break the news?

God, yes. We were trading war stories about this in the staffroom just earlier this week. Yes yes yes.

vw, I wish you med-ma, and would point out that recognising and addressing the issue of whacky brain chemistry is the very opposite of failure.

Ordering a freaking shitload of doughnuts to be delivered to your house along with the soda water and caesar salad, and eating them compulsively (without much real enjoyment), on the other hand, is most DEFINITELY failure-ish behaviour. Especially after making so many good choices today.

Sigh.

Making a grown-up decision about handling whacky brain chemistry, otoh? Made of win.
