[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.

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.

There'll also be a speech therapist, a physiotherapist, even a specialist to help with his eyesight - essentiallyit's integrated with his therapy program with the Dept of Disability, Health and Community Services. It's a government school, so they won't be out of pocket for it either.

That sounds brilliant! I'm so glad that he has this opportunity for an education that will truly meet his needs.

My PT is out sick today. I am allowed to be relieved about not having to go on a day that I did not cancel, right?

not your mom's socks.

can I get a little nonspecific health~ma for my DH? he's going to the doc to have a thing checked out with his foot feeling all odd. Mostly I'm freaked out that he was motivated enough to make an appointment without me hassling him. But I'd also like for him to be very ok.

Yup. Can you make yourself do any of the stuff you would do with the PT, only not so vigorously? Maybe a bit of extra rest is what your body needs, too.

Health~ma for your DH, Sox. May the doc diagnose quickly and accurately, and may it be easily treated.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The supervisor of the calculus courses sent out an email really early this morning. Most of it was extremely detailed notes on how to grade the midterms, and which types of wrong answers should get what grades and why. It was all in bullet points and sub-points and stuff. Then the last bullet point was "Eating peeps to stay awake gives you a sugar high that doesn't allow sleep when grading is done," with several sub-points on the virtues of Peeps.

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

WTF is wrong with me? People will kill for some of the things I'm doing right now. But sadly, some of those things I'm doing right now just don't feel this fucking great anymore.

Yep, that's burnout.

Ahahaha.

As someone who has wished that would happen, you can totally be relieved!

“Not dead yet!”

~ma to you and your DH, Sox.

Shir, be good to yourself! That's half the problem with doing so much for others, both in a personal sense and in the greater world sense-- you tend to put you and yourself down near the bottom of the list of priorities for whatever reason you can come up with, when really, since you're the person making so much of this happen, the care and feeding of you needs to be near the top.
