Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, the national Girl Scout organization is very progressive, but of course on the local level, a lot depends on the volunteers.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

One of the Boy Scout board members my mom used to deal with made a prejudiced comment about not wanting his food handled by the queers at Cracker Barrel (oh, the irony!). I believe her response may have actually blistered the flesh away from his skull.
My feeling about it is the Boy Scouts are perfectly free to admit and associate with whomever they wish, and they're also free to take the consequences of people's reaction to their bigoted practices. I hate having to tell hopeful teens that I'm not going to buy their popcorn or help their pledge drives, but that organization will never get another penny of my money.

I'm wearing inside pants and sushi socks, AIFG.

* so fine, my outside pants today were also PJ pants, but inside pants are acceptable to wear commando for comfort where outside pants are not.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Thank you all for the birthday wishes. I had a lovely, lovely day. Nice long meals, some cooking (bolognese sauce), sitting around in front of a fire and chatting/knitting, and a wee splurge at Lush.
All in all, an excellent way to start a new decade.
And now, I am in my inside pants and about to fix myself a whiskey and soda.

I read that as asscLaps which was frankly a frightening image, especially in the commando sense.

So apparently I have a new immune system response. The day after my crown was placed, a knot blew up in the space in front of your ear that gets a divot when you open your jaw. That spot blew up dramatically once before after a takeout meal, but subsided after benadryl, so I ignored it. It didn't blow up as big this time, just lasted longer. It's shrinking now, I think. Which is why I mention it now. I wouldn't if it was still scaring me. Anyway, it's weird. I don't know if it is a lymph node or trauma-ed tendon or what. I'm thinking node. I usually respond to infection in other nodes, so...jeez, stupid body. Stupid teeth. I honestly expect a root canal for the new crown. Damnit. But I'll get drugs for my out-of-country time and just prey that if it blows, it happens before then.
