Jilly, that is absolutely splendid! I can't wait to hear more details when you're free to give them.

You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

[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.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Oh Sail, it's like I never even *knew* you!

God, that friend is awesome and hilarious. Also, wise.
It's true!
"This is totally awesome! Go me!"
This is also true! Go you!
Maria, all sorts of ~ma for you. If it's any consolation, my boss just had surgery to have melanoma cells removed from her face (she now has a very nice forehead scar, and said "If I'd known there'd be a big scar, I'd have asked for a lightning bolt.") and apparently between that and some follow-on treatment has a 99% cure prognosis.
It seems that the medical types know what they are doing. (And you can hardly see the scar).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm being paid to be a professional Goth.
SO. AWESOME.

I'm so sorry for all the bad news that's been dogging you, Maria. Wishing lots of health towards your DH.
Congrats, Jilli! It was only a matter of time and that time has come.
le nub! Take care of yourself, my spoily friend.

Jilli! SQUEEEE!
That's so fuckin' cool! YAY!

not your mom's socks.
Jilli that is fantastic. And a very wise decision on the part of the producers. ION this movie's goth cred just went through the roof.
Dear Oxford Comma Deniers, I love you all but am ignoring you presently.

I can't say as I hate the poor beknighted little thing, I just don't like being told I have to use it. It should be used like a rare and expensive wine, selectively and with great care so as not to ruin the bouquet of the prose being elucidated.

“Not dead yet!”
Oh Maria, darling sorella-- I'm so sorry this year is being such a mean bitch to you and the familia. Along with what everyone else has said, you have all my love and ~ma and anything else you need--
And indeed, fuck cancer with a rusty chainsaw. Sideways.
