I would really like for people at work to stop asking me how I am. Neither of us really wants to hear my honest answer, you know?
What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

[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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Yay, Stephanie!
Fingers crossed that the side effect continues and your regular doctor finds a way to work the new med in, sj. No pain for two days is splendid.
eta: Jess, I hear Tep is now officially healthier than Dick Cheney, and pretty soon she's gonna be all sugared up on ice cream and ready to go on a punchintheface rampage, if needed.

{{{Jessica}}} I'm sorry. I hope you know that this is a safe place to honestly talk about how you are feeling whenever you want/need to.

Our wings are not tired.
Stephanie, congratulations!

Also, getting feelings hurt is not the same thing as being offended.
javachik, I saw you added this after I read it, and I wanted to say this is also a very good point. Important distinction, I think.

Thanks, sj. I'm actually doing really well, considering. (And I really don't want to hijack the thread because if *I'm* this sick of talking about myself, I can only imagine how the rest of you must feel!)
Mostly it's people I only ever see at the water cooler - I'm guessing most of them don't realize I was pregnant the last time we bumped into each other, and "Hey, how ya doing?" is, under most circumstances, a perfectly cromulent greeting.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
a perfectly cromulent greeting.
Yeah, but it can acribbitz your irritation, too.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I am THERE for you.

Always Anti-fascist!
Tep, on your most fucked day, ever, you're always healthier than him. Shit I didn't Say: Dear Feminist-Allied Man: Do NOT try to out-feminist me if you don't want me having thoughts like "You run the fuckin' world, and we can't have ONE thread without somebody asking about guys and its effect on guys and what about feminist guys...good for you. Here's your cookie. Now sit back and look pretty." You're tiring...are you sure you're not secretly Glenn Greenwald? Because my head hurts when I read him too. Argh...

“Not dead yet!”
Yay, Stephanie!!
