Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

[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.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
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.

Thrive to spite them
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.

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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
smonster, baby, I'm coming in a little late, but I wouldn't judge you in a million years -- I'm just glad you've got amyth and Calli and all the remote love of the Buffistae coming at you.
askye, I'm wishing *very* hard for you to have some kind of an answer, and soon!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Ugh, find-out-soon-ma to you, askye.
Smonster, I am sorry. Wine and friends. Wine and friends.

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
smonster, baby, I'm coming in a little late, but I wouldn't judge you in a million years
For the record, I would judge you if it meant I GOT TO BITE YOU MORE!!!!!
Smonster was naughty? Judge judge judge! Om nom nom!
