Travel~ma on its way for Frankenbuddha's brother and SiL.
Healing~ma for Askye's aunt (and for grandma too, with that nasty cold/sinus infection).
Alas I, too, have no oomph. My supply of jolly is low, as well.
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

[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.

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.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Go Suzi!

Major congrats, Suzi!
Snowpocalypse seems to be over - I think all the activity I'm seeing is the wind combined with very fine snow. I doesn't look like anything is actually coming down. This would be nice for tomorrow.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Thanks all. Next belt will be a while. Purple belt is the move out of being a beginning student. You also earn the right to wear a black gi, like the other higher ranks. Oh man, I can't wait to get out of my white gi. That white is just blech.
Anyway, CJ should be able to test for his purple in January. I already bought him a black gi, but it is tucked away until he earns it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've been feeling like I was on the edge of an asthma attack all day. Laughing at the Colbert Christmas special just pushed my lungs over the edge. Ouch. And cough. And still giggling.

All is well that ends in pizza.
We get snow, but the Powers rarely declare a Snowpocalypse. Though the state budget has cut back on the number of plows. Joy.
Hmmm, That would almost be the SnowPlowCalypse here.

Greetings everyone. I am now going to bed after spending the day fighting off the soured adrenaline in my body from fishtailing across two lanes of traffic and careening 30 feet down the embankment, ending up facing backwards in the ditch some 15 feet lower than the roadway this morning.
Apparently the only casualty, besides my pride, was my new pair of blue twill pants which my leg muscles split 8 inches at the left thigh when I was using my whole body to keep the van upright as it twisted through the deep snow. This I did not discover until I was at lunch at work and noticed I seemed to have more than one pocket on the side, and that I could also scratch my leg.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Congrats, Suzi!
Daniel, glad you're home safe. Get some rest!
