I just spoke to my friend Sandy - she's the one who I stay with over holidays. Anyway, the day after Thanksgiving I went with her to take her oldest cat (of two) to the vet - to be euthanised. And now she has had it confirmed that her 11 year old retriever has cancer. I mean, yes, she is 11 but that really doesn't make it easy.
You know what they say about payback? Well I'm the bitch.

[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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

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

Also, folks, I was serious that I'm not topic-flouncing as much as reining myself in. But I am reading along and mulling everything over, and grateful for the conversation.

I always feel, as a sort of theist/agnostic/whatever, that I wished i believed in prayer and religion. It seems comforting and helpful, but I would feel like a big old hypocrite if I tried to belong to a church. In fact, I sort of always wanted to be a nun, because I think I would like study and ministering to the poor and sick, and a life that is regulated and calm but where you could fight for things for others. And I do believe that Jesus's teachings, whether he really thought them up or not, are something to aspire to-- "If a man asks for your shirt, give him him your coat as well."-- that is a good thing.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm with Sophia. Well, except for wanting to be a nun.
