Liese, all best thoughts for the SO, and for you.
Willow: Yikes. Imagine the things...Buffy: No! Stop imagining! All of you! Xander: Already got the visual.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.

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

Ides, man. I'd overlooked that fact.
P-C, I'm sorry you had the meltdown, but I'm glad you stuck to your guns. I guess it was good you had virtual people to slaughter in revenge. It will get easier to be the calm, rational grownup in your family the more you practice. I promise.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
P-C, I wonder, since so much of this is cultural, if playing the "man" card would work.
"I am a grown man. I make my own decisions. This is a MANLY DECISION. Grr argh, smell my testosterone! I respect and honor you. But my gonads say no. I BEAT MY CHEST AT YOU."
I dunno. But maybe?

Bear in mind you have to use those exact words.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Ugh. I am having another day of being stuck at home because my ankle hurts too much to walk. Getting really sick of this.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I am a grown man.
Not until I'm married, I'm not! Wait, not until I have kids! Wait, not until I have grandkids!

I just ordered a pair of crutches online. I tried to buy them in the store a few days ago, but all the crutches they had were too tall for me. Not sure how much it'll help, or if it'll mess up my shoulder, but it's worth a try.

Ann, that's a ferret.
P-C, you're out of school. You're earning a living. From what you've said here, it sounds like you're doing a pretty good job of earning a living. You're a grown-up. You get to decide what jewelry you do and don't want to wear. Or, for that matter, own.
Your parents don't get to decide when you're a grown-up. Your granparents don't get to decide when you're a grown-up. (For that matter, I don't get to decide when you're a grown-up. But I digress.) You get to decide when you're a grown-up.
And if other people aren't happy with your decisions, that isn't your problem.

All I can suggest is, now is the time to tell your dog all the things you want to say to him. Even if you get the miracle, you won't regret having said it.
