And Erin too. I have had days if not weeks when unloading the dishwasher was the only thing I could cling to.
You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

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.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Ginger! so many brackets for you too sorry your post hot while I was writing mine. Wow this board is moving fast today..

Oh Ginger--again, wish we all were closer and could help out. :(
Erin, that's bizarre! Did she know your number from some other time or what? But still, awesome feeling. I've had that sort of thing happen once or twice (well, once it was an ex, apologizing for being an ass, a few years later) and it feels pretty darn good. Even if the original thing still happened, at least I get to feel righteous?

Also, Erin and all of you who are suffering with things, never think, "My pain is not as bad as that person's pain, so I won't say anything." Pain is pain. I've never found my pain to be lessened by acknowledging that others' pain is worse. I think "I cried because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet" is crap. You still need shoes.
Erin's post just resonated with me particularly, because I've done and felt similar things over the last year or so and didn't have her guts to face them head on.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
My number is posted on my LinkedIn, and she talked about what an amazing, accomplished person I (seem) to have become, so universe is thwapping me upside the head with a cluestick today, which is all to the good.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
But cluesticking in a GOOD way! may this be the first day of an upswing for you.

I am going to do my best to make it so (#1)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Damn it. I want to go slay metaphorical dragons for Ginger and Erin.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Sending lots of love and support your way, Ginger. And lots of ~ma for good MRI results!

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
Ginger, I wish I could do something more than offer you words and virtual hugs. Much peace, love and strength to you.
