Laura, I have watched people I love go through that driving off the cliff stage in their lives and it is so hard. I'm sorry this is so hard for all of you.
Seems like everyone's got a tale to tell.

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.

Our wings are not tired.
Thanks. I believe that he has the tools to make good decisions and do believe he will when he has learned his own lessons. It would be nice if we could learn from each others experiences, but we have to walk the path on our own. I am satisfied for now that we can communicate regularly on stuff that isn't sensitive. Sports, weather, we can talk about these things together so I get to know he is ok.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Hil, I hope your pain is manageable today and you get to everything that is important to you. Also, was that amazing bookstore in Columbus the Book Loft, in German Village?
Thanks, and yes.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Normally, I am Talky Pants, but a summer cold started last night, and I feel like hammered shit, so I'm just going to give a big-ass LOVE to Maria, Barb and Laura, and go clutch my box of Kleenex to my chest.
Just have to stay awake until D gets home, then I can crawl back in bed and die.

OK, I managed to get dressed, and I got the TENS wires bundled up so that they're not dangling. Next step, get to the garage to get my cane or crutches from the car, and then, get lunch. Then go to at least one panel session -- there are a few that I want to go to, but the first is the most important, so I'll do that one and then see how I'm feeling.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

We're kinda like Hotel California, only not as creepy, and with less stellar guitar work.
But we have theremin solos!

This line makes me think we need a new batch of those Bitches business cards we used to have. I think I still have a couple on my fridge.

The status is NOT quo.
Maria, sorella, I just caught up. I truly understand how scary it is to face a life-threatening situation with your beloved, and I am thinking about you and vibing hard for an easy cure. The best advice I got last year was to make a little time for myself every couple of days to have time to breathe and relax a little, so I'm passing it on to you. Much love.

Oh Laura, many hugs to you. You are such a great mom, I'm sorry that it's so hard right now.
