Go Erin!! I know how hard it can be to do the smallest of tasks when you've been feeling the way that you have been. I don't know exactly how you feel or have been feeling, since these bouts are so different for each person, but I have been there in my own way and I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy, let alone someone I love and consider a friend. If you need another human's voice, I'm up and here and can offer either a sympathetic ear or a welcome distraction.
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Aims, I love you!
I feel better today -- just stopped to take my meds, woo, go me, remembering at 5:30 -- and I felt better yesterday, once I spoke up.
Yesterday was so much better, I can't even tell you. And today, I am tired, but I don't feel as grim.
I won't be saving the world today, but I don't think I'll be cursing it -- much -- either.
Also? I will have clean clothes. And I shaved yesterday and put lotion on last night. I feel much less like the Hairy Lizard Woman from Planet Gloom.

I love you, too, honey.
Amazing how shaving and the simplest of grooming habits can make you feel so much better.

I find a shower and scented body lotion make me feel better, for what that's worth.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Yay, Erin!
Any plans to go outside today? I find that often helps my depression.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Happy haircut, Erin!
You go, Aims and Erin, for your early morning productivity in the face of cruel insomnia.
I am sad to report that my hip and back are still hurting pretty badly. Dr. Mike the chiropractor, you let me down! Phooey.

Coffee and smokes: I got my paycheck issue sorted, and will have a paper check to deposit later today. Yay!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hey, Vortex. I'm currently in the throes of the impossible. I'm trying to (co-) write a Supernatural fanfic, and I want to set it in a predominantly black area near DC or NY. Somewhere middle or upper middle class. Like, with an engineer father and a teacher mother. I need context, and I might need dialogue help. I got the Jamaican bits covered, but I'm not so good at African American.

ita, when you say near do you mean a suburb? PRince Georges county (Aka "PG county") is a predominantly(? At least in the public consciousness, I think in actuality too) African-American area. Theres some nice neighborhoods in it.

Is it black enough that two white guys from out of town would stand out?
