Less good news: I took the $54 store credit instead and got more books. But fewer than I took in! OY.
Gurrrrl...
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

[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.

Hey, if both me and Vortex descend upon you, you'd get it done really fast.
I am intrigued by this idea.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
All kinds of ~ma to Nora, her family, and her grandmother. Peace to you all.
~ma to Aidan and Deena.

Our wings are not tired.
Peaceful thoughts for your family and grandmother, Nora.
Vast amounts of ~ma headed out to Aidan.
Sick time, and PTO, hmm, interesting concepts.
I hear ya. I do get to work from home or other locations and in my jammies. But the whole 40 hour week thing is something I just dream about. PTO, yeah right.

Thanks, guys. It's so awful to contemplate a world that she won't be in, but we're trying to move forward with as much peace as possible. Most of the deaths I've dealt with have been awful shocks, coming practically out of nowhere, so this sort of waiting around is really stressful and practically uncharted territory for our family.
ION, SMONSTER! Insent from my work email, with followup from a potential employer contact!!!

Peaceful passing for Nora Grandma, gentle grieving for Nora and family.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I am intrigued by this idea.
You and I live close enough we could drive down together.
