Another thing I've noticed about Pennsylvania, or at least this part of it: people here are really, really nice. When I was going to all the different offices on campus, there were a bunch of times that I had to stop and look at a map or directory quizzically, and every time, someone came up to me within about five or ten seconds to ask if I needed help.
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

My parents had 4 kids then started adopting until they'd reached 16.
Wow.

16, that's a lot of kids.
{{miracleborns}} Parenting is tough stuff.
My parenting attempt on a one on one basis this summer has been a complete and utter failure. I drop Brendon at the airport Saturday. I feel like I am giving up, but I don't have anything left to try. He has to go forth and succeed or fail on his own now. The only thing that is keeping me from being devastated and brokenhearted is that I am depleted of emotion at this point.
It is good to hear things are going well, Hil. Don't know exactly where you are, but when I lived in Pittsburgh I had continuous positive experiences with the locals. Loved that place. If it had an ocean I would have stayed forever.
Boo for cloud cover. Want to watch meteors!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
{{{Laura}}} Best of luck to Brendon, I know you've done all you could for him. I hope he figures his way out sooner rather than later.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Thank you for the shoulder. I do know that he will get his act together; I just don't know how long it will take. He is gifted with many talents. Blah. I just need to focus on stuff I have some actual control over.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Ah, Laura, I am so sorry. It must be incredibly frustrating and difficult.

You and Scrappy should be charging us. Seriously.
Hang in there.
