That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

[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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Jesu, Daisy! I thought we had decided that mortality and ill health for your family was off the schedule for 2010.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I thought so too, but apparently March, that motherfucking Tino of a month, decided otherwise.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Holy craptasms, Daisy. Best of possible outcomes to your cousin and calm~ma to everyone in the mean time.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I have no idea how to react to that.

The answer to that is "Fuck Cancer". And Tino for that matter.

Meeting #2 complete. Tech rehearsal now. Then 2 more meetings after that. Thankfully cut a third. Oy. Tons of meetings. When can I get "senior-itis"?

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.

Fuck cancer. Much alternative timeline~ma to your cousin, DJ.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

That's horrible, Daisy. I hope she can get surgery more quickly than that, and that it's successful.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, DJ, that sucks so bad. I saw her FB status and was worrying. Lots of ~ma headed her way.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Apparently she has a friend of a friend who prepares stuff for the pathologist who is going to take a look at the test results and make a call if he feels the 22nd is too long to wait. So there's that.
