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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, yeah, he doesn't know the pain of a knitting bender. You wake up all covered in gun cozies and you don't even recognize the colorways.

On the other hand, you can definitely be mine, should I ever need one.

Okay, but I warn you -- it's going to be all knitting and Pilates.

He probably needs these.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Okay, but I warn you -- it's going to be all knitting and Pilates.

You could knit a foam roller or a reformer or something.

My brother is having really horrible withdrawal (as one might expect) -- bad cramps and the shakes -- so he's going to go to the hospital later. (His wife went to work this morning, but is taking the afternoon off [she just got back in town Saturday night from Guatemala, or Peru, or some coffee-growing country, and since she stayed home from work yesterday, she really needed to go in today], and she's taking tomorrow off.) He wants to wait until she gets home to go to the hospital.

I'm so worried about him.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

He needs to go in now. Can you convince him to go?

My mom already tried. He doesn't want to call 911, and he's in no shape to drive. I can try, but I think he'll stubborn it out.

Is there a friend of his you can call? He can be stubborn with someone there, at the very least.

what about a taxi?

I don't have any of his friends' numbers, but maybe I can get him to call someone. I think he doesn't want anyone seeing him go through this. Which I get; we are cut from the same stubborn, proud cloth. But it would be better if he had someone there.

He really wants his wife with him. Which I get; I would probably feel the same way. I still don't think delaying it is the right choice, but he's an adult and all I can do is suggest things. Despite being the Big Sis, I am apparently not the boss of him. Which is bullshit; I thought that was a lifetime gig.
