Oh, Cass, I'm so sorry. It is hard. You can totally text me if you need to, at any point.
Lydia: Its removal from Burma is a felony and when triggered it has the power to melt human eyeballs.
Giles: In that case I've severely underpriced it.

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.

I'm in the midsts of rewatching SNG. I'm up to start of season 4. Poor Wes. He's promoted to Ensign, but the red uniform looks big on him. I wonder if that was on pupose, to try and make him look more child like. In the mean time, Locutus has been created.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
We have a sick little boy. We got a call from childcare that he was complaining of feeling unwell and wasn't playing the way he normally does. When we picked him up he told me that his ear was sick. (Not hurting, apparently, but it felt sick.)
Right after we got home, before we'd even had time to take our shoes off, he threw up all over himself, the floor and his parents (I was holding him at the time). So I'm willing to believe him with the whole "feeling sick" thing.
Anyway, the fun part is that (yes, there's a fun part) last time he was sick, we had tremendous difficulty getting him to agree to take his medicine, as it tasted funny. This time around, he volunteered (indeed, insisted) to have some medicine. We'd been talking through the concept since last time, and when I was sick last week, he'd bring medicine to me so I'd feel better. (That part was just awesome.) He still thought it tasted funny, but got through it by alternating sips of the medicine and sips from his water cup. Learning!
Our chirpier boy is now safely ensconced in bed. (Fortunately, he didn't throw up over his regular bedtime froggie, but his auxiliary backup froggie.)

Our wings are not tired.
Awww, poor boo. Quick recovery wishes for him.

Poor Ryan. I hope he is feeling better soon.

Ann, that's a ferret.
All sympathies, Cass.
Get-well-soon wishes for Ryan.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Sending you hugs and strength, Cass.
And sorry to hear that Ryan is sick, bt. Sounds like maybe an ear infection or a bad respiratory infection? I wonder if he has vertigo.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
My brother got released from the hospital today, and tomorrow morning he starts an outpatient rehab program. Each successive day I talk to him, he sounds better and better. His liver enzymes are rapidly dropping back to normal, so he shouldn't have any permanent physical damage.
Hec, I asked him the other day if he wanted entertaining, distracting stuff, and he was Captain Grumpypants and said no, he just wanted to watch Storage Wars on cable. So I let him be grumpy. I told him if he wants entertaining stuff in the future, the offer is open.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Storage Wars might be just what he needs.
