This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Totally train. Totally. It's precisely the way I want to go in weather.

Huh no BBC. I guess no Who. Time to court sleepies.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Back from a long day with Tim's family. Merry Christmas, Bitches! (As someone above said, I get a kick out of being able to say "Merry Christmas" and follow it with "Bitches"!)

ION, 3 couples I know got engaged this weekend. (We are NOT one of them; I would never break that news in such a burying-the-lede manner.) That seems statistically improbable.

One of the couples is someone from high school who I'm only Facebook friends with -- we weren't friends in high school, and we aren't friends now, but she friended me and I figured what the hell and friended her back.

So anyway, she posted about her engagement on FB, and of course people were congratulating her, and she replied with "Thanks! We are just one of those couples like in the movie The Notebook! In almost 3 years together, we never broke up even once!"

And all I could think was "Is that...unusal for you? Seeing as how you're 40 years old and not in junior high?"

(Yes, I know that couples -- of any age -- do in fact break up and get back together, and so what my FB friend posted is probably well worth noting, for her. But I still just had to laugh at the phrasing. And also the fact that when people congratulated her on her engagement, her reply was NOT "I'm so happy," or similar, but "We've never broken up!")

Also, we learned that a baby will chase a laser-pointer dot just like a cat will. It was fucking hilarious.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Ha! Yes, I remember doing that with my friends son. He was 3ish at the time. Mom (my friend) was on phone with hubby. She's 6ish months pregnant. Son is starting to be tempermental. I whipped out my green laser, and he was on it like a cat INSTANTLY! Calmed him down, and was very entertaining. D looks at me and says, "I think that confirms it, linebacker, not Rhodes scholar". I felt bad, so stopped. She was like, "oh no you don't! It's entertaining him, and that is what I need right now". Who am I to stop a pregnant mother in the summer?

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.

And also the fact that when people congratulated her on her engagement, her reply was NOT "I'm so happy," or similar, but "We've never broken up!"

That does sound rather like she's trying to convince herself. Oh, well. May they be as happy as they are capable of.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Holidays are over. Whew. They were good holidays, but I'm glad to be home with nothing much I have to do and no one I have to see.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

"Thanks! We are just one of those couples like in the movie The Notebook! In almost 3 years together, we never broke up even once!"

Ahahahaha, that's funny. I share your not getting it.

ION, yesterday was awesome, but today is not looking great, as my ex-neighbor is harassing me about my tenants on my cell phone and my sister is sick with mysterious illness, that we don't know if it's caused by overindulgence last night or a flu bug or what.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

"Thanks! We are just one of those couples like in the movie The Notebook! In almost 3 years together, we never broke up even once!"

Weird.

We were supposed to have one more holiday celebration today, but TCG's brother canceled because of the potential snowfall today. So, I can relax today! No being social!

Compassionately intolerant

And also the fact that when people congratulated her on her engagement, her reply was NOT "I'm so happy," or similar, but "We've never broken up!"

That really is sad, in a way. It always makes me wonder about how 'hard' the relationship has been...so bad that a bloodied victory is what comes to mind before happiness? Eeeeh.

Today is a really good day. We went for a super long walk since it appears we will get some depth of snow. It's crazy, the difference between predictions. So far, it's anything between 1-3 inches and 6-10 inches.

Honestly, people...pick a source and stick with it!

Now, I'm listening to Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me. Love it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

We're also listening to Wait Wait, and we're about to go for a walk. Almost six inches, here.
