Love isn't brains, children, it's blood, blood screaming inside you to work its will.

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.

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

Thrive to spite them

Meara congrats on the house!

Also Steph is hot in her corset.

I went to my appointment to Shands today. I've been feeling bad again lately and don't feel like doing much. I'm frustrated I think by all of it. That and I was starting to feel bad 2 weeks ago with UTI symptoms and I went to my urologist and the test came back fine.

Anyway at the hospital today they dip test showed possible infection so I have to go to the urologist tomorrow about getting another test done.

Also I learned that because no scans or xrays from the cystoscopies I had done (which is evidentally SOP) I have to have the cystoscopy and retrograde thing redone at Shands. So that's next month. The urologist couldn't say anything until he had a look around to see what is going on, but he did say there may not be anything he can do.

So everything is still unknown.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

How frustrating, Askye! I hope you get some answers and some help soon.

all right, how is this fair? Today's high is 76 degrees. Thursday's high will be today's low, 46 degrees. This is why our apricot trees keep getting their little blooms frozen off! The sprinklers here at work are running!

Good luck to Kristin wrt the interview, happy birthday to Beth, wtfrustrating and feel better to Askye, things are going to come around Hil, wtfbureaucracy to Meara and WOOOOO House!, happy KC to Sparky, and much comfort to Fay and family; three cheers for Omnis just because.

Jessica you were in a dream last night - there was a television announcer who said "and now we will hear from Miss Jessica A, who with words will convince everyone within hearing range of the rightness of this plan." I have no idea what the context was. But, obviously, rightness.

“Not dead yet!”

Barb! When I have keys, you can come SEE IT!! Also, um, I already read those books you loaned me.

YES! Mos def want to see. And heh, on the books. Can't wait to talk to you about them.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

"and now we will hear from Miss Jessica A, who with words will convince everyone within hearing range of the rightness of this plan." I have no idea what the context was.

Bwahaha! It was obviously a vision from the future, as I spent WAY more time today than should have been necessary convincing my boss & co-workers that two pieces of the desk we were putting together were, in fact, WRONG, and that the solution was to call the 1-800 number and get them replaced, rather than continuing to pointlessly stare at the pieces on the floor and say "It *has* to fit - we must be doing something wrong."

DO NOT QUESTION MY SPATIAL RECOGNITION SKILLS, BITCHES!

(To their credit, they all did eventually admit I was right. But it would have saved a lot of time if they'd just *assumed* I was right all along.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm watching an American Experience program on the history of environmentalism. Well, history starting in the sixties or so, it seems. So far, it's interesting, but it's just a bunch of disconnected things. There's still a while to go, though. I think the official word of this program is "insidious" -- I swear, someone has said that at least once a minute.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

So weird--I just got a facebook message from the old owners of the house!! Guess that's what comes of having a unique name!! (Basically just said 'Enjoy! We loved the bedroom view, let us know if you want any recommendations on the area")

Awww, I hope you enjoy the bedroom view as well. Hee. I'm 12.

Barb, your house is lovely and your family and friends even moreso.

DO NOT QUESTION MY SPATIAL RECOGNITION SKILLS, BITCHES!

Precisely. I recognize fully that I have a sense of distance that can leave much to be desired and a downright unhealthy relationship with gravity but I have spatial recognition skillz. I blame Tetris.

“Not dead yet!”

Barb, your house is lovely and your family and friends even moreso.

Aw, thank you! I'm so glad you were able to make it up. My in-laws were so tickled by the idea that we'd only just met in person for the first time. They so loved meeting everyone and are now genuinely reassured that we are in a good place for us. They still hate that we're three thousand miles away, but they're no longer so confused by the fact that we up and did it.

And how pleased was I that Pete wanted a piece of key lime pie for the road? Hee!
