Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

[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.

Good news: TCG's step-grandmother is going home today. They found the ulcer causing the bleeding, gave her ulcer medicine, and are releasing her from the hospital soon.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Great news, sj!

Also, it is good to have KB back.

I have an interview next week! They liked the writing samples!

This is my first ever interview when it's "One person will get one job." I've always had "we're looking for mostly sane people who are coherent and aren't likely to shoot up the place." Well, not that bad. I don't know if I have any competitors. They may have had an open job for a while and no takers.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Hooray, Connie!

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

yay Connie!

Can I whine a little? I know my job is to be the rational one in the house right now--- but always responding in an uberrational matter to everything might kill me. and when I try to whine a little to my friends -- they try to tell me that Matt is going through some badshit. I know that. That's why I am whining to other people, not yelling at him.

Bad friends! No cookie! Of course you can whine here. Obviously everything that affects Matt affects you, and you need to be able to vent about it somewhere so that you can be supportive of him, like he needs you to be.

We have some lovely cheese to go with it. Would you like a chaise lounge? Achmed the Handsome is standing by with the crackers.

Right on!!!!

Well, sure he is -- but so are YOU. The things that affect Matt end up affecting you, too. I can't believe your friends don't see that.

thanks, sj -- I think it is so weird that people don't believe that I know how it is for Matt. Really, I live with him and have for many years -- I know how bad his head space can get.Much more than other people know, he hides it well.

Does Achmed tell stories?

Lovely stories! The Nice Young Hooker stories, mostly. The one about the NYH and the soccer team is especially nice.
