You've got my support. Just think of me as...as your... You know, I'm searching for 'supportive things' and I'm coming up all bras.

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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Vermont does indeed rock.
Steph, all grace to your ladyparts.
Farewell, puir wee Hamish. (Isn't Hamish a boy's name? Large, redheaded Scotsmen's name?")
The conversation previous, Calli, amych, Sail, Anne, and Brenda, was just beautiful. And made lots more surreal if you read their taglines.

Where in the midwest?
Eh, just toying with the idea, really. I'd like to be closer to my family, but I also want to be employed, so MI itself is probably out, alas. (My nephew has a badass engineering degree from Kettering University [motto: MIT, whatEVAH] and he's been job hunting in MI for over a year now.) Madison, WI, looks nifty. I liked the few days I spent in Duluth, MN (granted, those were in August). And it could be interesting to try big city life for a while, so I've been checking out Chicago neighborhoods online.
In the end I'll probably just end up sitting on my sofa in NC with the AC turned up, reading Dane101 and A Perfect Duluth Day.

Come to Madison! We have fried cheese curds, the best food evah!1! As long as you don't want to be a state employee, you're golden.

I have heard of the magical fried cheese curd. It does sound wonderful.

Thrive to spite them
RIP Hamish. I've had several dwarf hamsters and they are sweet little pets.
Steph - yeah snow removal is covered as part of my rent. That was a big deal in looking for places. I was hoping to find a place with heat included, but off street parking and snow removal is pretty good.
This past winter hit Will hard too. The weight of the snow - caved in one of his barn/shed things where he had some tractors and stuff from when he was actually farming.
He sent me pictures of huge piles of snow and it did not deter me. I may change my mind, but as long as I don't have to remove snow I think I'll like winter better than weeks on end with the heat index in the 100s and high humidity.
Oh! And I'm looking forward to less pollen. From what I understand things don't turn yellow during spring from the pollen. Tally's in the stage of having yellow pollen puddles after it rains instead of mud puddles.
Dad got me one of these - [link] Capilene t shirts for xmas and I'm planning on asking for more of those for my birthday (which is in June, but I'll need them).
And my brother got me some awesome boots, which are more for wearing around the house or running quick errands.
And when my bro was in New Zealand he got me a pair of possum fur and sheep's wool socks and I'll be buying more those.
It's sounds weird, possum fur, but they are warm and soft and not itchy.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I have been to Madison and partaken of the fried cheese curds, and endorse both heartily.
Not the best week ever. I've been having shoulder pain and it got so bad today I couldn't do anything and had to make an emergency chiropractor appointment. Which means I've now burned all of my sick time, again. I need to see if I can work some this weekend and make up some hours.
The pain is a little better, but I know it'll probably take until tomorrow to really tell how much of a difference it made. grump grump grump
