You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

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.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

ChiKat, I hope the second scenario is your reality in regards to Mickey.

IOshallowN,I have lost my new favorite lipstick at some point between yesterday afternoon and today. I've got 10 others in my purse, but I lost my go-to for work. It was practically brand-new too. I'll have to stop by the MAC counter at Nordstrom tomorrow.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Why not just talk to the pharmacist?

Because if he was the one who said it would be ok, what would complaining to him solve? I didn't think I would be advantaged by speaking to him directly.

FWIW, I've met one of Beverly's sons, and he's awesome. StY is a great person, and you should be proud of having raised him.

As for me, I'm too selfish to choose to be a parent. I like going out to dinner and sleeping in on weekends. I am lucky to be able to make that choice (both in the societal expectation sense and the legal sense) however, if I were to become a parent, I'd be the best damned mom I could,and my kids would be raised by the Buffista Village

Vortex, you are an awesome fucking aunt though. And an even better friend. Thank you.

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

Thank you, Vortex, he is a good man. And you're very kind (as well as gorgeous and awesome) to say so. Mostly I think I'm grateful he survived my mistakes.

smonster, I'm glad the fundraiser went well, and I hope you get the rest you need.

There have been times in my life when I thought I wanted a bunch of kids, and times when I was so convinced I would be a terrible parent that it was flat out better not to entertain the thought. At the moment I'm kinda thinking that I don't love the idea of having a kid graduate high school when I'm in my sixties, but if it were to happen I am confident that I would do like my parents did: which was to make some mistakes but generally do better by us than their parents did by them. I would build on what my parents did right, learn from some of their mistakes, and make a few of my own. My goal would be not to show my kid(s) what a perfect person looks like, but what it means to screw up and then work at owning up to the screw up, making amends, learning from it, and forgiving oneself. And hells yeah, I would lean on the Buffista Village.

Smonster, I'm glad the fundraiser went well.

I definitely want kids, and it is one of the main reasons why I am trying to figure out what to do about all my various health issues. But I definitely respect those who know it is not for them. ETA: This this is an interesting article that goes along with the conversation.

IOmemeN, I'm sore this morning, but not quite as sore as I thought I would be.
