Faith: A kid. Angel's got a kid. Wesley: Connor. Faith: A teenage kid born last year. Wesley: I told you, he grew up in a hell dimension. Faith: Right. And what, Cordelia spent her last summer as… Wesley: A divine being. Faith: Uh-huh. Can I just ask--What the hell are you people doing?

[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.

Mostly lurking...

Oh, goodness. You know, I've done really well this week. I love these kiddos, and even though there's been sickness and blah blah blah, I'd totally do this again. And, it's reinforced that I really want to be a mom...and that I think I'd be a good mom.

But you know what just did me in? Chuck E Cheese's. My god. That place is hell.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Me: "Oh god, I can't eat anything because it hurts!"

The Boy: "Not even peanut butter from the jar?"

Me: ....

Me: [running to kitchen] "I love you more than Batman right now!"

(As I was rummaging in the pantry to find the peanut butter, I heard from the dining room, "Right NOW?!?" Heh.)

Now tagless for your comfort.

I have TMJ so root canal is usually hellish for me. The dentist who did my last one had to use a child-sized block for my jaw.

The upside to this is that my insurance pays for nitrous oxide so I don't usually give a shit how uncomfortable it is.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Steph, if you do need a root canal, see if the surgeon will let you use an ipod of equivalent. It helps with the zoning out.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Yup, me too. It was way less agonizing than the one before when I had to hold it open myself.

Oh, definitely. I don't think it's even something you need to ask about though, is it? At any rate, I wouldn't have thought to. They never batted an eye at me.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Also Tep, meanwhile, can you swallow smoothies and shakes and soups without solid bits in?

Because books.

Honestly, I'm a HUGE baby about dental pain, and I've had a few root canals. (See: vicious circle! Does not go to dentist out of fear! Suffers more pain as result! Ugh.) As long as your dentist will keep pumping in the novocaine, it really is more tedious and uncomfortable than anything else, with a bit of soreness after. And it's not a one-appointment thing, either, which is a bitch.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I watch dvds when my dentist does any long work. He has this thing that fits over my head like glasses/ immersion helmet thingy. Best thing ever.

As of now there is no more carpet in my house.

Mine both were, unless you mean the crown afterwards.
