I'm starting to feel better. There is a lot less coughing. My throat feels pretty raw still, but that is to be expected, after all that. But I think I'm on the mend.
Glad to hear it, Andi.

[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.

Oh, Andi. I missed you were feeling bad, sorry. Glad to hear you're getting better.

Yep, me too. At least the company will be nice.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
At this point, after being single for almost ever, I think a huge part of me will freak out when being in a relationship is even an option. I usually say "no" to offers without thinking. I want to like something about you before we go to a date, not spending two hours with someone and pretend we could be a good couple (because I'm so very good at pretending, even though I hate every second of it).
I'm all "it'll come when it'll come, no rush" girl, and between my mostly nos policy to my blazing hatred to dating, I can see why I'm single. I just have no ambition in this department. Sure, one day, it could be nice to examine the idea, but man, it seems like too much work.
I'm sure that when I'll be in love this will change, but right now? Happy where I am, thank you, and I'll have to hurt you if you'll try and blind date me to another human being.

"I'm happy being single" and "being in love would make my life too complicated right now" are the two things I have said most often right before falling madly in love with someone.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm happy being single, and I understand that now is a bad time for me to be in a relationship. Also, I have attachment issues.
Still, it would be a diversion for someone nice and not boring to fall for me, just to remind me it can happen. It's been a really long time.
And that's just someone nice and not boring. See how low my bar is? I'm not even talking about someone I like back.
However, that's entirely for my own selfish amusement, so no sleep lost over that.

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

This is where I am, actually. As someone who is change-averse, even changing from single to not-single would be somewhat traumatic. And confusing.
