Buffistas

Aren't they something. They're like butterflies, or little pieces of wrapping paper blowing around.

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.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Point, but at that point, I would have been a Horrible Monster of Child Death for not suggesting something.

Hee -- I'm pretty much a person of extremes when it comes to sickness; I'm either mint tea/toast/7-Up/wet washcloth or full-on Vicodin pounding. Not a lot of in-between.

This is possibly a sign that I should perhaps explore the world of A Happy Medium more.

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

I have a thermometer. I like to know if I HAVE a fever, but if I feel okay in other ways, I'll still go to work or whatever. After the years of migraines/endo cramps o'doom, a low-grade fever is as nothing to me.

This. It raised the bar pretty damned high.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

One of the Most Magical things about having a lover

You misspelled HUSBAND.

I dunno - my threshold for sympathy is much lower than my threshold for "a big deal." There's plenty of low-grade bugs that can make you feel like crap without being a big enough deal to call a doctor for.

I think since she worked as a nurse, she got so inured to stuff that was bad enough to land people in the hospital that anything less didn't ping her radar.

Me, I'm always willing to dish out the sympathy, even for a splinter.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I own a thermometer. It's somewhere around here. I can't remember the last time I had enough fever to need one.

~ma to Tom and Nora! (I'm really excited for you guys. NOLA always sounded so... like a place I need to visit some day. So).

Lover sounded more French?

I am sympathetic! I have sympathy coming out of my bottom! It's just...limited to 5 minutes and practicality. I am an excellent nurse; I bring hot tea and tuck blankets and make soup.

But I also yank the stitches without compunction. Gently. But they have to come out, yo.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

For fun times? Read The Stand while wracked with a severe fever from a flu you caught from everyone else you know. Good times, good times.

Tom and Nora, you will find it! You JUST MOVED. Everything is topsy-turvy. But you will love it.

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

Time for you to go exploring in New Orleans, Nora. Get out of the house tomorrow, pick a neighborhood and get a good lunch.
