Mal ,'Out Of Gas'
[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.
Sending out all the best mental healing ~ma for Teppy's brother and the rest of your family.
Also some for Sean's Self-Image Angels' voices to get stronger.
And for P-C's mom - I just. I can't. I don't know whether she broke herself, or if someone else broke her - but I know how happy you would feel if she stopped being less broken. You are an awesome guy - a hard worker, smart, good person - a healthy mother should be basking in delight and pride. It's sad to me that yours is missing out.
That's wonderful, if boggling news, Tep. One of my brothers had to hit rock bottom before he went to rehab, but the other was like yours. He became aware he had a problem almost before everyone realized he did, and went right into rehab. He's been happily sober for many years now.
Stoopid demons. Fuck off, demons, and leave Sean alone.
Steph, that is huge. Good for him. Wow.
Coveniently for me, the tools I need to work are at another job I don't have the key to, so I am getting to sit with my laptop and catch up on the shit I was supposed to do this weekend. Helps that I only have Internet on my phone at the job site.
Steph, that's a pretty amazing thing your brother did. May he get all the help he needs, and make the best use of it.
Oh, hey, crying in the office garage. I hear all the cool kids do that these days.
Man, that's huge, Steph. And good. Good in the sense of tough times, but doing the right thing. I wish all the strength upon your family, and bless him for having such an epiphany.
Wow, Steph, that's a big step. Dang. Good luck to him, and his wife.
{{Sean}} You do totally rock. I wanna kick the demons in the shins.
Steph, that is huge. And good.
ita! I'm glad you're back. Not so glad about the crying. I wish I could make all your pain poof away.
That is huge, Steph. Sending much support and strength to your brother and his wife, and to you. You can tell him all your invisible internet friends got his back.
That's really big, Steph. As you may know I spent some time with an alcoholic who refuses to acknowledge she has a problem, even after hitting rock bottom and tearing through it like tissue paper to keep right on going. (Yeah, I may be identifying with this a little too much)
I hope your brother's choice balances something out somewhere. And also is good for him.
Wow, Teppy. That is a biggee. All the best thoughts sent to your brother. He and your SIL are lucky to have your heartful support.
