Bacon can do serious crime and get arrested time and time again, and I'd bail it out every. single. time. just for the merest chance to eat bacon ever again.
We might make bad bacon decisions, Jen, but it's bacon.
I can beat up demons until the cows come home, and then I can beat up the cows.

[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

This is what I'm saying. Hey, at least we know we can cry on each other's shoulders while bacon is off having smoochies and doing crime.
Wow. Sentence you never imagined yourself writing, meet posting box.

Our wings are not tired.
I spoke up because I sensed that VW was feeling torn; that maybe she wanted to still give the gifts, but maybe felt like she couldn't lest the world think her improper or succumbing to the whims of her insensitive ex.
I fully get feeling protective of her and the grrrr, totally. I just think all of the feelings aren't mutually exclusive, that's all.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I'm on the give them if you feel like it side. I assume you liked them - and what else would you do with the gifts?

vw, I've been very impressed with how you've been approaching this whole situation. I just wish I were closer to offer support, hugs, company, etc.

In other news, I have four mini fruitcakes looking for homes this year. Two with nuts, two without. If interested, please ping me at my profile addy. Be sure to let me know your nut/nutless preference. First come, first served, of course.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
VW I wish I was in Austin, and not just for CrazyBlindDate. Funny, I keep thinking CBD is CarrotBaconDude. Either way, I agree with the sentiment. Bacon is Good! Aside from that, you are wise. So do what you think best.

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.
Maybe we are all head-explodey, but I really think it is far more important in this thread to support each other than to give the benefit of the doubt to those who make our heads explode.
I support both the supportive-being, and the multiple perspectives-giving, with the proviso that any given person needing support and/or perspectives is encouraged to ask for and get what they need more of at any given time.

I've said it before, I'll say it again: Water seeks its own level.
Clearly you and CBD are not on the same level, as evinced by the quality of support systems you each attract.
