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.
Very cute dress.
Health~ma for Connie
Reovery~ma for Ginger despite the doctors
I wish for the insomnia fairy to take a rest
Job~ma for Kristin
My daughter fired up a cartoon this morning so I now have this song going through my head. Could be worse.

this is Matilda's Easter dress.
That girl is going to go far, great taste!
More surgery~ma, Connie, because you can never get enough of a good thing.
Smite-them-down~ma to Ginger. Stupid orthopedic surgeons who waste your time, may they find fleas infesting their armpit hair. That should keep them busy for a while.
Interview~ma for Kristin. Knock 'em dead.
I need more coffee, but I don't want the caffeine jitters. What to do, what to do. I have no decaf available and that sucks.
Recovery ~ma for Ginger.
::holds fly swatter at bay for Insomnia Fairy::
I didn't have to deal with the Insomnia Fairy, but her equally bitchy cousin, Lizard Brain and Bad Dreams Won't Allow for Full Sleep Fairy. Bah.
this is Matilda's Easter dress.
Man, JZ, I can't tell you how close I came to getting that dress for Abby except it's a) no longer available in her size and b) a bit too little girlish for her at this point. ::sobs::
No shoes or purse, sumi--she's got a pair of shoes already that will do well enough and we're drowning in purses. If I can find tights at Target in a pink that matches the bow I'll pounce on them, but other than that she's good to go. And there will definitely be pictures!
And now off to shower and run to work for the morning shift; Matilda's daycare/preschool is closed until tomorrow, so Hec has her this morning and I take her for the afternoon so he can finish some writing projects. It's supposed to thunderstorm today, so the hopeful plan is to take her to the downtown Oakland ice rink for the early afternoon open skate. It's cheaper, larger, and likely to be less crowded than the downtown SF one, and she loves riding the train, so if all works out well then by the time the free skate ends at quarter to three she will be completely happy and completely tired out and nap-ready. I hope.
I swear I used to talk about other things, sometime in the misty past.
Surgery~ma, Connie
Good luck, Pix!
{{Ginger}} What a nightmare.
That is a great dress, Matilda, well done! Skating sounds fun.
That dress is amazing. She is a true Zmayhem.
I'd wear that dress myself. Gorgeous.
Hopefully in-time interview ~ma for Kristen as well.
So, I found out Monday that my favorite N.O. cousin had a growth that turned out to be cancerous. I got an email from her today that seems like a mixed bag-amelonatic melanoma (not good), at least .96 mm thick (good), mitotic count of 4 (not good), non ulcerated (good), no evidence of her immune system attacking it (not good but not too big a deal)-and I have no idea how to react to that.
Surgery is scheduled for late April, but I'm really antsy about them waiting that long (and it seems she is too, as she's exploring an alternative timeline).
Then there's all this stuff about them removing a lymph node with the growth and if that's clear, we're good, but if not then VERY BAD THINGS. And that part scares the crap out of me.
Jesu, Daisy! I thought we had decided that mortality and ill health for your family was off the schedule for 2010.
Oh, dear, Daisy. I hope she doesn't have to wait that long, that seems very hard. And, of course, I hope that any and all treatments kick the cancer's ass.
