Oh eep! I was about to come in and bitch about the fact that our next door neighbors have been having a loud party for three solid days now, but this kind of puts that in perspective. So sorry about stress with your family, Omnis, and so sorry to hear about your car, Laura. Glad they are okay, but still.

[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.

The status is NOT quo.

So this bartender has his own version of a Pimm's cup, with strawberries, mint, and cucumbers. It's pretty awesome.

omnis, I'm sorry your sister is being so difficult. Tons of ~ma for your dad.
{{{{{Laura}}}}} I am glad everyone is ok, but it must be frustrating for you not to be able to drive over there and check on them.

Our wings are not tired.
Sounds yummy, Tom.
I asked my SIL to come over and do my nails and keep me company.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
My food is not as tasty as I had hoped, but listening to Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me has put me in quite a good mood.

I'm glad. I was feeling bad for you all alone with your sad toenails.

Cool! Maybe go next to an archived episode of TAL that's fun. I recommend "Notes on Camp."

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Family is stressful. And illness rarely brings out the best in them. I am sorry, omnis. And vent away. It's a good place for that.
I am so sorry about your car, Laura. Glad everyone is okay but poor little car....

Oh, Laura, ick! But glad they're all OK.
Smonster, another site to maybe try is "Simply Be"? I randomly got a catalog for it the other day--it's sizes 10-28, and they had a whole section of swimsuits/bikini tops that would not fit me.
I am EXHAUSTED--did the 5K this morning (new personal best!) and then drove up to the Tulip Festival with roomie and a friend. Good to see the friend, but now my legs are DONE.
