Teppy, I'm sorry I didn't chime in earlier, but I've been thinking about you and your family and wishing I know something better to say than that.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

[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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Steph, I'm glad the funeral went well. My thoughts are with you and Tim.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
My brain has decided to PLAN EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD right now . all my usual tricks aren't working. Bah. I have stuff to do tomorrow - but the odds of my brain being useful keep dropping

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
That was me! I am going into work early so I can leave early and I hope go to bed early.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Thinking of you and Tim, Steph.
My uncles took pictures at my grandma's funeral last fall. I ended up annoyed that I'd forgotten my camera and my iPhone.

Oh, Steph, I'm sorry. I should have said it sounded like a lovely service you handled beautifully. I keep being on my phone where it's a pain to type.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Thanks, you guys. I really appreciate it.
Especially since -- color me SO unsurprised -- not a single person has asked how the funeral was, and/or how Tim is, and/or how *I* am (though why ask how I am, since after all, I'm just an outsider).
If they were my only exposure to "Christianity," I wouldn't be real eager to embrace it, unless I was deliberately looking for a lifestyle that would allow me to live like a self-congratulatory smug rude-ass dick.

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.
Teppy, I'm thinking warm, caring vibes at you, whichever kind of punctuation you would like right now.

Whichever one conveys a massive cockpunch. (To them, just to be clear.)

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Let me get in my car. I can be there in four hours to deliver the requested cockpunch.
