I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My favorite caption so far: "He forgot his tramp wife in a depraved lust nest."

Heh. A blog linked to that site with a picture of the cover for "Satan Was a Lesbian." I've had a postcard of that cover on my fridge for the last few years.

It is truly one of the best covers ever from the pulp paperback era: [link]

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Hey, you've let us squee with you through the good stuff. What kind of friends would we be if you couldn't vent to us?

I hope things work out for the best for all concerned--whatever that turns out to be.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Aw, jesus, Erin. I'm glad you're very clear on what you need and what you can and can't do, and I hope the situation resolves without too much distress on any side.

I hope so too. D loves me, and he doesn't want to be without me...but he would like to be closer to M, too.

I'm just giving him a little time and space to think things through, and I hate to be ultimatum girl, but...I'd be reluctant to move to San Fran or Seattle or some other fun cool city where I know lots of peeps.

But Buck County, PA? No. Fucking. Way.

Compassionately intolerant

Clarity is key, Erin. I'm glad you have it. As we all know, a vague disclaimer is nobody's friend and your forthright self-awareness is admirable in a situation that would could easily be muddy.

I'm hoping this is a familial phase that soon passes into practicality and strategic planning. Inconvenience can be managed, emotions can be weathered. Healthy coping ~ma to all involved.

OOof, Erin, that's tough, especially since M's mom doesn't exactly have a history of being...helpful. Good luck.

yeah, that's another world of NO. Close enough to hang with M means close to all the crazy. I could deal with it if she lived in town or something, but you know shit would get real awfully fast.

I can be very civil at a distance, but I think she would all be up in our shit all the time and WORLD OF NO.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Wasn't she not supposed to move that far away in the first place? And what on earth would stop her from doing so again?
