Faith ,'End of Days'
[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.
Okay, Dear Powers That Be: stop picking on my people. Really. There are others out there that are FAR more deserving of being treated badly by you.
ION, I'm working from home today, as kind of a mental health day. I feel less cranky than yesterday, but that may be because of the extra sleep and the radio alarm clock playing Siouxsie and the Banshees.
I talked to a friend who lives in Jerusalem longer than me. Turned out it's somewhat well known, and yes, it's deliberate.
I'm so shaken and furious. I mean, I know better than going into the ultra-orthodox and even orthodox zones, and I don't do it (when I have to go to orthodox zones (I keep out from ultra-orthodox zones), I dress accordingly). But Jaffa street? One of the main streets that everybody uses? In the afternoon? It's neutral territory, assholes. Assholes-who-don't-work-nor-serve-in-the-military-and-fine-with-getting-my-tax-money-but-not-with-my-existence, I have to add.
I'm sorry, whut? You were tripped on purpose b/c somebody thinks you're showing too much cleavage? The 'tripped on purpose' is puerile by itself, but the judgey part? Now I'm feeling not just smitey, but nuke 'em from space smitey.
Cripes, Shir.
Cleavage and pants, smonster. It's a literally deadly combination in certain areas of my city, if you're a woman.
Shir, that is absolutely awful. I'm sorry.
It's complications from Mom's UTI that put her back into the hospital, sounds like it was not another stroke, which is good. Hopefully I'll get some more information out of my family today. I do know that she's got a drug resistant infection going on, so a few of the regular antibiotics that they've used in the past for her UTIs aren't workable this time.
ND, that is a common problem with chronic UTIs. You may want to find out if they can put her on a low dose maintence antibiotic after this clears up, which could reduce her chance of getting another one.
ION- getting closer to getting the new MacBookPro from work. They have a model selected, now it's just about how much RAM and what software. :: makes grabby fingers ::
I'm just about to buy a new one, too -- we can geek out together!
~ma to your mom, ND.
