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.
health~ma for Shir!Ma. Hope see feels better soon.
Aims, how are you and rugrat doing?
Talked to mom for 2.5 hours. It's her birthday! Weee!
Also started on the punch panels. Got the blanks popped out. Now I need to figure out how to pop rivet the connectors to the panel. Then solder fun! wheee.
Happy birthday, o_a's mom!
And, heh. Whatever mom's got, dad got it from her. The next few days are gonna be very interesting for me.
{{{Aims}}} Health~ma to you and Emeline.
Things I'd love to see:
Northern Lights
Oh, so much! We're hoping that one day soon we'll get to Norway and maybe Iceland too.
omnis, I hope you can find a time for the second interview, and that it goes well.
Right. Going to Mass. Then there is much much reading to do.
Huh. I started writing this paper, you see, about what's the ideal path to a happy society (between Benthamian, Freudian and Durkheimian approaches).
Sometime in the past 20 minutes, I think it can be read as if I'm claiming, between the lines, that a fascist society is an ideal, happy society.
Dear Lord. I... didn't mean to claim that. Sigh damn you, relativism. One cannot argue that cohesiveness is good to a society without being suspected in fascism anymore, can't she?
Aims, how are you and rugrat doing?
Better, thanks! This morning it seems we are both on the mend. Emeline can breather through her nose again and my fever has FINALLY broken. And I actually got lots of sleep. I might try to eat some scrambled eggs later this morning. I'm trying to decide if I should go back to work tomorrow or stay home one more day. Doctor said stay home til Tuesday for me, but that Em could go back Monday. I wonder why that is?
kids bounce back faster. plus, you get stuck taking care of both of you while she has only herself cause non-healing-helping stress.

Don't kids supposedly bounce back faster from illness than adults? Plus, it sounds like you had a worse case of the ick than she did.
Stay at home tomorrow. The rest-n-recovery will make it less likely that you'll catch something else in the short term.

Shir, can you specify that you mean voluntary cohesion within the culture? Or does that even make sense?

Anne is wise; listen to Anne. Signed, someone whose sister the nurse got rheumatic fever by ignoring her own strep throat while taking care of her sons.
ETA: for accuracy, and to add that she wasn't actually a nurse yet at the time it happened.
Shir, can you specify that you mean voluntary cohesion within the culture? Or does that even make sense?
I think I know how to pull this one through. Not by suggestion any voluntary cohesion (cause, umm, a cohesion is a cohesion. The voluntary part may manifest in different forms of expressing said cohesion, but society needs one), but by different ways on which the individual define himself/herself in a society, and the set of boundaries between the private and the public and their relation to the notion of "self".
And by that, I hope to make my suggestion less fascist.
Anne is wise; listen to Anne
This.
