Passing grades, Ginger!
Best of luck, LeN!
I said it in Natter, but I'll say it again, because you guys rock as a couple. Happy Anniversary, Erin and DH!
Take jobs as they come -- and we'll never be under the heel of nobody ever again. No matter how long the arm of the Alliance might get, we'll just get ourselves a little further.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Erin, you continue to be one of my heroes. And happy anniversary!!
omnis, I don't know whether to thank you or curse you* for linking those "Single Dad Laughing" posts. I went on to read his posts about bullying, and it's brought up a whole bunch of shit I had forgotten about or at least tried.
And my parents are about to arrive in three days, and I just sent them an email asking them to consider carefully before they vote on Amendment One, and I'm back dealing with the fact that it's been thirteen years since I came out out to my parents, and I still think twice-three-twenty times before I mention anyone gay.
And I'm pondering how all that affects who I am and how I am now, and my game of "affection chicken" (TM Cheeks) with StW, and my feelings of loneliness and insecurity.
Fun times. I'm practicing being here with all of it, letting it flow over and not swamp me. God, I want a cigarette so bad right now.
In better news, I did a lot of stretching and stuff last night and one of my vertebrae has popped back into place that has been out of whack for a long time, so that feels good. The lessening of pain is a good thing.
* thank you

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
smonster, I spent a whole night last week sucking up Single Dad Laughing, and thinking a lot about bullying and single-parenting and such.
It was a thoughtful evening for me.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Fingers still crossed, Ginger. Always.
Ma for LeN, too.
Congratulations to Erin and DH!
Less pain is a very good thing, smonster. And, you know, in general for everybody.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
omnis, I don't know whether to thank you or curse you* for linking those "Single Dad Laughing" posts.Huh? Was that me? I just saw the one about gay kids and the mom writing in on facebook this morning, but I don't think I posted it... but... the iPad has been on my lap when I wake up, so I wouldn't doubt anything at this point.

Huh... where did I see it, then?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I would have sworn omnis posted that too! But now I can't find it. smonster, were you and I living in the same alternate universe?

Zenkitty, apparently we are in the same mistaken alternate universe. Thanks, Kate!!

Well, at least it was actually *there*. I was fearing I'd made it up for both of us.
