K-Bug - aka Kelly (she said I can use her real name now that she is an adult)
She will always be K-Bug to us.
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

Somehow I didn't cry. My tummy is still all aflutter. Knowing that I was going to surprise her with the dress funding had me hiding a grin.
MOB dresses are depressing. Why are they all so drab? I know it is her day and all that, but the dresses they had were blech.

Growing up, we referred to oleanders and THE POISON BUSH. I'm not sure why. Sure, it is poisonous to something, but... Pretty!
msbelle, that was before I had blinds, so probably why I sent you upstairs where I had a sheet over the window. Man. So much in a year for us both.
And many congrats to Kelly, Suzi. Long and prosperous.

Because books.
Suzi, look for a dress for you somewhere other than a bridal shop, I think. MOB dresses there do tend to me sort of blah to ugh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
it is poisonous to something
It is poisonous to us!
Suzi, congratulations to your daughter!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

OMG, a wedding dress! Wow...
I am alone here in Hawaii, and finished work early and laid out by the pool. And put on sunscreen. And therefore am only sunburnt where I did not put on sunscreen...apparently I managed to miss swaths of my lower arms (not too badly burnt, since they already had a tiny bit of sun, probably the most of my whole body), and ...the middle of my back. Which I couldn't reach. And is now bright red. Oops. Knew I should've bought some spray sunscreen. Doh!!
Meanwhile I was supposed to go to Spokane at the end of this week, and they called and cancelled on me. And are like "No, we can't do it, and need you to reschedule." But the only time I have to reschedule is the week I was plannign to PACK AND MOVE. The week I buy my HOUSE. The week I am also supposed to be helping a friend who has just had surgery. And the week before the weekend in which I have to be in a show, the yearly dance conference happens, and I have to repaint my current apartment (which means all my STUFF has to be out of it....) AY! (...my wife to murder, and Guilder to blame for it! I want a msbelle to come help me pack!)

Yay K-Bug!! (I refuse to call her K*lly here).
msbelle, I checked Goodreads, where it is also very highly rated: you can see a summary and reviews here: [link]

All right, I am off to do my dastardly deeds.
