It kind of doesn't matter if it's truly his loss or not...there are times when I wish I could "Spotless Mind" him out of my memory...I'd lose maybe ten good memories, lifetime, versus all the times I expected something I never got, all the fights and criticism...I just want to forget the whole thing.Just pass him on the street and wonder if the tall guy with no ass looks familiar cause he did a guest shot on Rockford Files.
I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

[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.

If you figure that out, let me know. I'd like to consign my memories of my father to the same bottomless pit.

I'll keep you posted. I don't even know what I'd even want from him now if I could ask...that's how little there is between us at this point.

I just did my first push up set. Ow. I'm glad I don't have to do that again until Wednesday.

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.
His loss. Saner people cherish the opportunity to talk with you.
And so do we.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
The Spoon Theory is excellent.

The Spoon Theory made me sniffly.
