Willow ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
[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.
I have wished Andi Happy Birthday in person, given her a card, presents, and now she's happily napping with two kitties before work.
My job is done.
Well, not really, but it's off to a good start.
And I think I can join in here, to say
Happy Birthday Andi!
Happy Birthday, Andi!
Happy Anniversary, Roe v Wade!
Teppy, I think I need to look into IBS, because the kind of symptoms you have are what I have. I don't understand why on earth no doctor I've talked to has even brought that up, though.
My pain is located so low in my abdomen that when it all started in 2008, I thought it was an ovarian cyst. It felt like menstrual cramps (and still reminds me of that).
I'm lucky that my doctor is awesome, because when I called him in pain on a Saturday morning, he pegged it right away.
The good part is that, unlike Crohn's disease, IBS doesn't progress to cancer or anything else. The bad part is that it doesn't seem to have a "cure" as much as careful management. But my understanding is that careful management can get people symptom-free for a long time.
Anyway, if you have any questions, I've done so much research on IBS that I feel like I could write a book on it. Feel free to ask me, here or in e-mail, if you want to know anything.
signed,
will talk about her GI tract endlessly, and aren't you all thrilled about that?
Happy birthday, Andi!
Birthday Happies, Andi!!
Happy birthday, Andi!
We went to look at a house (we're at the very early stages of thinking about buying), and I climbed stairs. It was a mistake. I think I'm in bed for the rest of the day now. Blah. Still, I have a lot of books. And old episodes of Friends. And the new 'Being Human' ep that I haven't seen yet. Could be worse.
MFJ is *killing me*. We had another long convo Tuesday night - they only end when our phone batteries die or it gets really late. His status shortly after we hung up was "I count you till I fall asleep" (Lisa Hannigan lyric). I sent him a picture of my tattoo the next day b/c we were talking about it and his response was "gorgeous... and the tattoo is pretty too." And THEN. That meme that's going around FB about waking up next to someone in jail and saying three words? He's the one who said, "Let's get married."

Limerance is a sexy bitch.
Happy birthday, Andi!
Limerence is a common emotion characterized by unrealistic expectations of blissful passion without positive relationship growth or development. It is distinguished by a lack of trust, loyalty, commitment, and reciprocity. In the case of limerence, there is more often than not an obsessor and an object of desire, who may or may not be attainable.
Hey now.
That's not how I'd define limerance!
I just think of it as the glowy/blissed out/new love feeling.
I don't know where they get that "lack of trust" business. That's somebody else's agenda.
Well, okay then. I had to look it up and that's what I found.
