Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I hope they get things fixed up quickly, ND.

Speaking of therapy, I may need to find a low-cost therapist soon if I can't afford to get out of here. Practically my first interaction with my mom this morning was something angry and dismissive. This coupled with feeling pretty invisible in the various fora in which I participate has got me about this close to a meltdown moment. Only, when you're broke and carless, your options for going somewhere to get away from it all are pretty seriously curtailed.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Connie, welcome to commodity fetishism. You're not crazy, you're just responding very well to economy. < /Marxist>

ND, I hope they'll unmess the mess soon.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

That sucks, Spidra, I'm sorry.

Always Anti-fascist!

I just started watching "Bored To Death" Like it, don't love it. But I did love:

GF: Jonathan, you smoke too much pot.

J: It's natural. And they give it to cancer patients.
GF: You don't have cancer!
J: Not yet.

(of course, I've tagged Rhoda. So you know how I feel about that right?)

move out and draw fire

ND, wouldn't it be nice if the hospital would text you or tweet you with that sort of news?

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

Apparently annemergency procedure happened this morning and messed up the day.

Those happen, unfortunately. Fortunately, they are taking care of the emergency first. Which is good because sometimes we *are* the emergency and it's nice [edit: NOT] to be ignored.

That said, I hope they get to you soon and that you are feeling better and better every day.

I took ALL the allergy meds and then had coffee this morning. I got major grocery shopping done fast.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Spidra, best of luck finding a therapist. I hope you don't feel invisible here! I see you! ::kermit waves::

ND, I hope they get to you soon.
