Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Thank goodness, Maria!!! I love good news.

It turns out my uti is better but not gone and I need more antibiotics. I resisted saying "told you so!"

Compassionately intolerant

Wonderful news Maria! May this good turn be just the start to a path that is as doable and easiest as anything of this sort can be. Blessings on you both.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I hope so. We've still got a long road ahead of us, and it's not going to be easy, but Stage IIIA is so much better than Stage IV.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Maria! SO MUCH YAY FOR NOT AS BAD!!

Are there any banking Buffistas? Something really strange is going on courtesy of our bank. I don't know what I need yet, except possibly Xanax.

Sox, if they haven't given you any more info than what you said in Natter, it's going to be really tough to determine what's going on. It could be any number of things, many of which are not all that serious.
