[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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Landlady is helping me today. Woot! Mattress and boxspring are at curb for pickup, bedding is being washed, papers sorted and boxed.

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.

smonster's landlady is a rockstar! May the new one be pretty decent, as well.

Barb, I hope that the redecorating you end up doing turns out to be just right, as to make you more comfortable and happy in your lovely house, when all is said and done. And may you have less trouble dredging up the patience to endure until then than you think.

I spotted this and just HAD to share it.

move out and draw fire

Maria, you and your family are in my thoughts.

I'm freaking exhausted today. The DH got back from El Salvador a little early, so we were actually able to catch the A's in Baltimore for their last game here. But that meant driving to and from Baltimore in nasty traffic and being outside for hours in 100-plus-degree heat and Code Orange air.

However, a nice dinner, an A's game, and a trip to Baltimore make an OK anniversary celebration.

Wow, that's awesome! I've never had a landlady or a landlord like that.

The window AC is working wonderfully today, which is great because it is supposed to be a scorcher.

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

Just took the time to breathe and appreciate the things I appreciated, and to be happy I was sad at home. If you know what I mean. That I had a safe space and supportive family to be sad in/around. To let myself enjoy the house even though I was sad. To give myself time and space to be sad.

Yes. Thank you. This is so true

Also, {{{Jilli}}}

I took the day off as a personal/mental health day. My back is also getting knotted up so I will be yoga-ing this afternoon (Lord help me) and arranging for a massage. I have been enjoying running Super Seekrit New Orleans Welcome Wagon errands this morning which cheers me up to no end.

Smonster, do you need an air mattress? We got rid of ours but I am going to Walmart later and can pick you up one if you like.

I also called in a scrip for 150 mg Buproprion. I used to be on 450mgs, then couldn't get it here, so I just switched to the 300mg pills. I think I may need to go back to my originally prescribed dose, for a while at any rate.

Now, it's thundering and I'm chilling on the couch with the cats.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Happy anniversary, Raq!
