Peace and strength thoughts for your mom, Daniel.
River: You gave up everything you had. Simon: [Chinese] Everything I have is right here.
'Safe'
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.

Awww. I got back home early so the dog won't be left along, and I got the old version of himself back: happy, jumping-on-me-to-get-petted, barking-at-other-dogs barking's dog.
I don't want to delude myself or anything, but I now appreciate every single second that he's like that. Seems like he's not in too much pain at the moment, or at all.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Yay for every little blessedly happy moment with these beloved animals!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
puppy and kitty ~ma for beth and Shir.
Daniel, all kinds of ~ma to your mom.
Dallas and I have discussed this at length. We're going for "brief not-so-painful illness." She knows the rules.
Mickey knows the rule at our house. He's not allowed to die. That's just it.

“Not dead yet!”
Daniel, lots of peace and ~ma for your mom.
And yay, Shir. We do hold those moments close, don't we?

He licked my hands. He didn't do it the past two weeks, and he willingly do so now. My baby.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Aw, that is great Shir! Savor the moments.
ION- I feel like Cypher from The Matrix. Last nights call was my steak dinner. I know, the analogy doesn't quite fit, but right now brain is not firing on 100% rational/logical cylinders.

Gah, so much -ma for everyone that needs it, pets, people and jobs.
At least the job-ma is vibing for the thing(s) and not against it or despite it.

Darn you all, by the way--last night I had an oddly coherent dream in which the dog of my childhood was around and I was all "Awww, gosh, you're so cute. And OLD! You're...we got you when I was 11! You're 21! That's crazycakes! How are you still alive!" And then I woke up and remembered she's not. (Mind you, since I have trouble remembering how old I am when I'm awake, I'm shocked I did the MATH in my dream) Thankfully, it wasn't THAT upsetting, but STILL! Sad Bitches, it gets to ya!
