Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

[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.

Hm, had a great night, but just got some news that pretty much negates all of it. UGH.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

You OK, Nora?

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.

What's going on, Nora? And punctuation for you.

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

Steph, I feel you. I am seeing a therapist for the first time in years, and I have an appt. with a psych to play with my meds. Celexa for almost 10 years, and is the only thing I've ever been on, and the insomnia keeps getting worse, and more depressive eps, and more anxiety about insomnia, which leads to insomnia, which leads to depression...

CBT, weekly therapy sessions, and a psych. I am OVER hoping medication alone will "fix" it. I am happier than I have ever been, and I would like to feel it for more than 48 hours in a row.

I will prolly redact this in a while, but I just went to my therapist this morning, and while DH "knows" this, you all have known me longer, and listened to my rants and wigging longer, and....ugh.

I understand the appeal of the confessional SO much more than I used to.

Nora, what's your news, if you can share? (I'm SO SO sorry for threadjacking, but this has been preying on me, and I have to share it before it eats me from my bottom. Mea culpa.)

Erin, that's not thread-jacking. I hope you get some relief soon.

Feel free to dump on us at any time. There's a lot of folks with shovels to get it out of your way.

Thanks, Maria. I know I blather here a lot, but really, I am more vocal here than many places about feelings, and I internalize and analyze and verbal dialogue EVERYTHING in my head, and...

And, well, all my friends are busy with babies and their own lives, and no one's spouse needs to hear all therapy-talk, especially when one is newlywed.

Ugh. How does one balance THINKING logically about one's depression, while yet trying to NOT THINK about it, which is what feeds into the loop of obsessing about it.

Brains are kinda stupid. I vote Vulcan.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Vulcans only get laid every seven years. They'd be like the rest of us if they "did it" more.

Huh. 7 year itch?

Wouldn't artificial insemination be more...logical?

It would but they'd 'splode.
