Happiness and joy to you and the Girl, Seska!
You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

[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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Congratulations Seska & Girl!

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
On the subject of heaven, The Girl just turned to me and went: "What's all this about the rapture? When's that happening? I hear it might be next week." And is now adding up how many days we'll get to be married if that particular prophecy is true.
Thank you SO much for all the lovely congrats! You are all absolutely wonderful :) I am exhausted after last night's family dinner, but we got through it fine. It was surreal, but not at all bad. Our parents did not hate each other. No one freaked out at the amount of sign language my dad and his partner use. The friends we invited were happy to entertain themselves. I ate chocolate.
Now we have today. I'm half excited, half terrified. Mainly of rain. It is currently sunny, but showers are forecast. The forecast will be WRONG! Much Buffista anti-rain~ma has decreed it so! I hope I still fit into my dress. I hope the brewing migraine goes away. I hope I can remember the Hebrew ring vows. OK.

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.
Seska, I looked up wedding blessings, and I found this one that fits my wish for you and The Girl:
Now for you there is no rain, for one is shelter to the other. Now for you the sun shall not burn, for one is shelter to the other. Now for you nothing is hard or bad, for the hardness and badness is taken by one for the other. Now for you there is no night, for one is light to the other, Now for you the snow has ended always, for one is protection for the other. It is that way, from now on, from now on. And now there is comfort. Now there is no loneliness. Now forever, forever, there is no loneliness. --Salish marriage blessing
Especially the bit about the rain today.

Hi. I'm skipping like a skipper over few hundred posts.
Much ~ma to those in need, {{{}}} to those who lost loved ones, and God-I-Missed-You to the rest of you.
And much, much congrats and happiness to Seska and The Girl. I'm happy to know both of you. You're very deserve.
There's a certain 1000$ error hellish nightmare in work I have to face, involve the screwing up of a certain unit which, I'm afraid, will drop back on me for being the middlewoman of the deal. I'm very, very stressed about it, and it's way out of my comfort zone.

Seska, best wishes to you and TG today.
Thursday was the 6 month anniversary of the day TCG and I got married. So, today we are going out to a play in Providence and dinner at restaurant we really like(yay groupon!).

HAPPY DAY, Seska! Focus on the joy -- that's all you'll remember, anyway!
ION, guys, wanna help me figure out a tagline for my business while I'm drinking coffee? (I woke up at 7:19 in a blazing panic, because I was OMG LATE FOR WORK OH SHIT and then realized it was Saturday and rolled over in utter gratitude.
I got up a half hour ago. BLISS.
So...my website it Erin G----: Wordslinger. I'm looking for a tagline for business cards, etc.
I'll be a freelance writer, editor, copy editor and proofreader. I don't know whether to just have THAT as my tag, or something like "Comminication the write way" or some other blurb. I am pre-caffienated. But I can get 250 business cards for $10 today only, and even though my website isn't ready to be viewed, it IS technically live, and my business has certainly begun.
Ideas?
