Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

[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.

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

So after not talking to my parents for a couple weeks (and not even being called), I answered the phone yesterday and talked to my dad, and it went okay. This morning I called my mom since they're leaving for a vacation to Boston, and it went okay. It was actually nice to hear their voices when they're not part of traumatic conversations that ruin my day. I'm sure the Issue has not been completely resolved, but we'll see how things go.

Now I have to figure out whether I want to go to India with the family in December. It's been six years since the last time, and this time it'll be more traveling/vacation like it was the first or second time I went, which could be nice.

Our wings are not tired.

Happy Birthday to Zenkitty!

Yay for non-drama phone calls.

P-C, wouldn't this be the "find him a bride in India" trip? I mean, I suspect even if you didn't want it to be your mom would not be dissuaded.

BTW, is girl from okCupid Gujarati, or just other-Indian-which would still be more acceptable to the parents?

The status is NOT quo.

No, we're going for a cousin's wedding.

I mean, I suspect even if you didn't want it to be your mom would not be dissuaded.

But yeah, this is my fear.

Based on her last name, I'm pretty sure she's Gujarati.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I am the worst sitter ever. He fell asleep on the chair in the living room, and I just let him sleep there. But when he woke up he rolled over and hit the floor. He's not hurt, but I feel awful.

not your mom's socks.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Going to India sounds awesome as a general concept.

Going to India with your parents, as things currently stand, sounds like a horrific way to eat up vacation time. IN HELL.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

But when he woke up he rolled over and hit the floor. He's not hurt, but I feel awful.

Next time roll up a towel and scootch it in behind to prevent the rolling off. (Learned this the hard way, also.)

Thanks, Hec. Normally I line the floor with pillows, but I didn't this time.
