Go Scrappy! We'll be happy to cheer you on. I've done a cleansing diet from time to time, usually with msbelle as my cleanse partner, and it's really a nice way to become more self-aware around eating.
I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

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.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

The SO & I were talking about doing a juice fast for a bit.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
And because it needs its own post, I just found out a former student just lost her grandmother and cousin to an apparent double murder on the Apache reservation today. The BIA is investigating so it sounds like they're waiting on the feds to arrive from Flagstaff. (One of the vagaries of pseudo-sovereignty: tribal police have authority up to a certain point, but the feds have jurisdiction over capital cases like rape and murder. Of course, those cases aren't usually on federal radar, so justice is often slipshod at best. Another classic example of institutional racism at work.)
Anyway, it's horrible and my former student is upset, of course, and I'm frustrated because there's little we can do.

That's terrible, Liese.

Our wings are not tired.
How awful, Liese. It is tough enough to lose loved ones by natural causes, but a violent loss adds another level of grief.

Liese,
ugh. It has to be a family member, right? I mean no stranger is going to run up on them like that right?

Who knows, at this point? But yeah, a grandmother and her granddaughter, it doesn't exactly sound like a drug deal gone bad. And it happened in their home, I think.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Oh, Liese, I am so sorry. That is awful.

Oh Liese, that's terrible.
