You're editing, Teppy. There are many subtle ways to make people look even crazier.
Tomorrow is Pi Day. Today is Friday the 13th.
Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

[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.

We're having a St. Pat's party tomorrow (huge deal, tons of people, parade in our neighborhood). I wonder how we can work Pi Day in.

Fuck cancer! I just talked to my good friend D in California, the one I met while traveling. She's been fighting breast cancer for three years, and it has spread beyond the point where they can do anything for her. Hospice has been called in.

Thanks, Calli. She's still with it enough that she can make plans to do things that she wants to do, and my best hope for her right now is that she can do as many of those things as possible.

So sorry, sj. Fuck cancer, indeed!

Gah. Not related to sj's friend, but I just got a facebook message from my cousin. One of our (very distantly) related cousins has brain cancer and is going into hospice. I am of course sad for that branch of the family and will be keeping them in my thoughts.
My uncle's wife, however, takes these things (she did the same with some health issues my dad's cousin's husband was having) and turns them into some sort of email prayer tree request extravaganza. (When it was dad's cousin's etc. she couldn't even spell his name right. It's B-O, the white trash way, not B-E-A-U, the middle class South Louisiana way). It drives me nuts.
Also driving me nuts about my cousin's email? My family is getting together over Easter to go through my grandparents' stuff. Now, I have everything I want of theirs: Grandandy's LPOA President's zippo and Mimi's recipes. There are rumors my dad is going (which, to be fair should be treated like rumors of Elvis sightings), so why is it I'm hearing about this from my cousin? And why only just now?
Sorry. I am apparently having family issues today.

I hope I didn't say anything too stupid on the phone. I honestly had no idea what to say, but I did promise her that I would keep calling her once a week.

DJ, I'm sorry about the family craziness and tons of ~ma to your cousin.
