Does it melt snow? That's the kind of magic I am in the market for.
I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

[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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

If so, I need to let my brother know that there's a beer that makes it less likely he'll fall over.

In the middle of his praying, he gets a call on his cell phone. Without missing a beat in his prayer, he pulls the phone out of his breast pocket just to see who's calling, (presumably) sends the call to voice mail, and pops the phone back into his pocket.
Yes, Sean, that does sound like my people.
On the other hand, I can also answer the phone while standing in a packed bus with bags all over me. It's the "someone may need me!" factor.
Sick Bitches, I hope you are alright.
It was great waking up this morning to Laga's posts. I'm glad my first-ever-Christmas-present arrived, and arrived and received well!

I've been clomping around in snow and ice and have failed to hurt myself in any substantial way!

I feel all accomplished! My sense of self-preservation has kinked into action.
[edit: oh, bloody fucking hell. KICKED into action, kicked.]

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.

I'm tired. I dragged all over town running errands with a resident, wearing my boots which are not comfy at all, even with arch support inserts, and then tried to dig out the group home's mailbox from having been plowed in far too deep for the postal carrier to get to it. I made some progress there, but they have such a flimsy little shovel, and the snow was packed so hard, I doubt I did enough.
Also, I have come to the conclusion that flaky house manager sincerely, truly, deeply believes that nagging and lecturing is the best, most appropriate, most effective way to change other people's behavior. So much so, that she is convinced that when I give a simple prompt and then praise them for following the prompt, I am doing *nothing* remotely useful. In the past, I have threatened to deal with her behavior the way I deal with the residents' behavior. Maybe it is time to follow through on that.
