DJ, my heart goes out to you. I know first hand what you're feeling and it's really rough. I'm so sorry.

[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
This is yet another reason why I wish we all lived on Buffista Island. If we were all nearby, someone could bring you... I dunno cupcakes - ones that are decorated so adorably that it doesn't matter if you eat it, they are just fun to look at. But then if you do eat it, it's extremely yummy. Or, if you'd rather, a bottle of booze. Or something.

Condolences, Daisy. And yeah, you totally have the right to lose your shit at this point. It is hard when you don't have someone to grieve with, and when the person you're grieving was your connection.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
I'm so sorry, DJ. Thinking of you.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Oh, DJ, honey - that's all so, so hard. In particular, this:
in addition to losing that person, I don't have him here for his passing.
has me all teared up at my desk, because it's just such a deep kind of loneliness. Lose your shit as needed.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
{{{Daisy Jane}}} I can tell from your post what a great guy Bobby was. I'm very sorry you are feeling so alone. I'm glad we can lend some virtual comfort so at least in here you've got somebody.

I'm so sorry, DJ. If there's anything I can do, please let me know.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Oy. Got an email back from, "BUT WE NEEEEED IT TODAAAAAY!!!" whiner dude: "Who knew URLs were case sensitive ;)" Die.
Thanks, Nora. I'm sure I will be fine and all, just apparently not today.

Oh for crying out loud! Long distance stabbity-stab for whiner dude and all others who use emoticons in business correspondence.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I sent out an email saying I didn't want to do this early push to production because I was sure it would cause us grief. In fact, my exact words were, "I am extremely concerned that this is going to cause us grief. I understand if it has to get done, it has to get done, but I foresee problems."
Now everyone is freaking out that stuff is up 14 hours early.
I'm fucking Cassandra over here.
