Much love and brackets, Laura.
'Safe'
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.
Smonster, serious~ma to your friends. How awful.
Thanks, smonster and back at you and your friends. Such a sad loss. I can't even imagine.
Thanks. These are fellow PCVs, we trained together and so I was there when they met, when he started chasing her, when she allowed herself to be caught. I haven't seen them since their wedding, unfortunately. They have a toddler son, too, and I can't imagine trying to explain it all to him.
smonster, that is just awful. Thinking of them tonight.
Oh how terrible. My thoughts are with them.
I'm so sorry smonster. Peace and healing to your friends.
Strength to your friends, smonster, and to you.
Hey guys! For the first time since I joined the board, I missed my birthday wishes on the day. I'm sorry about that. They were wonderful. Thank you for posting them.
Life's been a little bit shitty. We had to file bankruptcy, we may lose the house, though I hope not; the refrigerator is dying, we were getting a car, finally, after a very long time without one through the kindness of a friend and that fell through and kind of broke my heart; and then I broke my middle toe so badly it should have been pinned, but because I tend to infection, the doctor decided not to, and Novocained my foot, which was very weird, and then twisted the toe bone into place, so now I'm supposed to be keeping it elevated and not walking on it unless I have to and stuff.
And I haven't read the board since sometime in July for the first time in forever, so I missed a lot of things that made my heart feel heavy for you guys; Laura, and Nora, and Smonster, and Teppy's lovely MiL, and the fact that you're all some of the most amazing people I've ever met, in person or not.
I just wanted to pop in and say thank you for the happy birthday wishes, and thank you for being such awesome people.
Deena! Always a treat. I hope all the shittiness improves mightily.
hugs galore
