That was quick, Laura. Well, gotta take his bumps, I guess.
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

[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.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
My condolences, Pix and Drew.
And ugh, Laura. Growing up is hard to do.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Was full of excuses, and I didn't hear any "I screwed up" noises.
Oh dear.
I was so relieved to see that Byron finally came home last night. I was worried about him.

Was full of excuses, and I didn't hear any "I screwed up" noisesOne of the students here at new job is like that. He is on thin ice with the head of the program. He's also in his 30's, so I'm wondering if he's too old to teach new tricks to.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I find saying something along the lines of "You can't control circumstances or other people, you can only control your own actions. What can you do to get to where you want to be?" helps. Make it about the future and frame the issue as something they control.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I am splitting a CSA membership with thessally for the summer, and we picked up our first week's of produce today. There is so much stuff, even with splitting a share. I am hoping that this is going to force me to eat more fruits and veg and get a little healthier, maybe even lose some weight.

My sister is 37. She's on thin ice with Life. I wonder the same thing.
