{{smonster}} Oh, honey. The whole situation just sucks. Please spend the weekend indulging in self-care, whatever that is for you.
Dawn: I think a date should be in a real fancy restaurant, then champagne at a night club with a floor show, then ballroom dancing. Joyce: Unfortunately, we're not dating in a movie from the thirties.

[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.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have absolutely no doubt you did the right thing, smonster. You didn't make the decision lightly, you had good reasons, and I'm sorry he's reminding you of those reasons so quickly. I hope you can get away from the situation and occupy yourself with something completely other, and thoroughly enjoyable.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I'm okay. I'm with amyth, Calli, and other friends. Which is a good thing, b/c after the angry email came the pleading email. "If you ever cared about me, please call me now..." It's hard to be strong.
The good thing about breaking up with a hermit is that he won't drive to my house and I won't run into him around town.

Our wings are not tired.
{{smonster}} Try to not read the emails for the 3 days.

I just skipped ahead from somewhere in Bitch 44, or maybe 43. It has been that long. I don't even know if this was posted in here, but I just read Trudy's COMM of Erin, and I just had to say...
I adore Erin's father, too.
And Erin.
This just warmed the cockles of my librarian heart.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The hard part's over (I hope), smonster. I do think it might be a good idea to not read the emails for your radio silence period. It's for you as well as him. Just put some emotional space in there.

I know it's hard but it's the right thing.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
And for what it's worth, smonster, I don't feel judgmental at all. Just concern for you. I'm sorry you have to go through such an emotionally wrenching experience.

So, I got a call from the doctor's office at lunch.
The CT Scan was normal. The nurse was confused when I did not sound happy about this -- I told her I'm still having pain!!! And then was confused when I wanted to make a follow up appointment with the doctor.
So I'll see him on 11:15 am Tuesday. I'm going to write up everything and talk to him about what's going on and what my options are. Because of my history with kidney/bladder problems I really think it's related to that.
