Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or 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.

Seska, continuing ~ma that the gov't agency is reasonable and major yays for family breathrough! Yay!

IOmeN, I ran out of gas on the way to work. You would think that by the time one reaches my moderately advanced age, one would know better. Obviously not. And my lungs are not thanking me in this weather. ::hack:: Thankfully, I was able to call on the help of a couple of samaritans, since I died right across the intersection from the gas station. Yay, kind people!

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.

Sheesh, Sail, I'm glad that did not turn out as badly as it could have - it is crappy weather to have to be out in for more than 30 seconds.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Hooray on the family news, Seska! And continued ~ma for the other bits.

Stardate 01.13.11, 11:15, Phlegm Galaxy: Mucus storms continue unabated, and something seems to be sapping the ship's power supply. The Lymphnodia Nebulae appear swollen and strangely solid. We've restricted the crew to essential functions only in the hopes of making it out of here, but every advance seems to be countered with a setback. Captain's log, signing off.

My stepdad had a partial knee replacement this morning. The surgery went very well, but any quick recovery~ma that could be spared would be appreciated.

Recovery~ma for your stepdad, sj.

Oh, smonster, I would slingshot you around the sun to bring you back in time before the nasty mucus storm struck and reroute you through clear space if I could.

I'm drinking a cuppa right now AIFG! I'm so glad I went to the doc right away, and I'm so glad she warned me about how long this would last and wrote me a note. Otherwise, I'd probably be out in the cold trying to work and making it worse.

I am so glad you are taking care of yourself instead of trying to do this.

I have been quite productive today and now I am going home. Tomorrow we've got a postgraduate research conference. I'm refusing on principle to go to the first session, where a biologist is talking about the toxic properties of tea. I think it would push me over the edge. There's not much point to existence without tea.

My academic support worker has agreed to be my lecturing support worker (are you keeping up, here?) - govt agency asked me to ask her. This must be a good sign.

Sorry for board-spamming today. I really am having the oddest day. In a good way. I think.
