It's just that - right now - it's not enough.
I know. Believe me, I know.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

[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.

ION, there is not enough caffeine in the WORLD today. I've resorted to blasting The Misfits through the headphones, but I think the only effect it's having is me muttering along with the lyrics, which is probably unsettling for people sitting near me.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Cass, I'm sorry for your loss. Thinking about kittenish is making me snuggle mine all the more. I wish there were a way to bottle Harvey's best purrs to send to you as comfort and strength. You have so much to deal with, with your dad being ill as well.
Fuck cancer.
Omnis, it's good to hear that your sister is at least making a step in the right direction, and I'm glad to hear your dad is having an easier time of treatment this go-round.
Crappity, Ginger. Stupid people are stupid.
Teppy, I'm glad your brother's liver is going to get better. May he come through this happy and healthy. Or at least as happy as any thinking person can be in this sad world.
Now that the discussion is well and truly done - Daniel and I have seen the Avengers twice in 2D and been quite pleased. I'm not sure I want to see butts in 3D, no matter how shapely.

Dear old college Facebook friend,
I'm sure that posting your real estate listing for your current huge 5 bedroom house (listed at almost $750K) and mentioning that you're moving to a new place "on the other side of the golf course" was supposed to be very impressive. Just for the record, I am not impressed. In fact, I am totally grossed out by both your need to let all of us know just how much your home is worth (and an idea of what your new home is worth) and your greedy, tacky, keeping-up-with-the-Jones' ways. Ew. Also? Aside from your childrens' rooms, your home decor is frighteningly bland and lacking in character. Do people even live there?

Ah, I feel much better letting that out somewhere. And I just had to ETA that I looked again and her house is listed at $765K, has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, and is 2730 sq ft. However could her family of 4 existed in such conditions! Sorry, this really just got under my skin.

I need you all to help me decorate. I am not Glamcookie's FB friend, but the above definitely describes my house.

your home decor is frighteningly bland and lacking in characterNow that I am approaching home-ownership (rather than renting) I am worried about this. I have no sense for color/decoration. My current apartment has cream/tan color walls instead of white. I know I like that better. White just hurts the eyes too much. Of course the tan color is very close to the color of my couch and recliner.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I went with lots of bright colors for the house after so many years of apartment living, where I couldn't paint. I worry sometimes that it is too much, but it does make me happy.
I also have a facebook friend annoying me. One of my close friends from high school is moving to this area, and I have sent him messages twice (several months apart) letting him know I am in the are and would love to see him. He hasn't responded at all. We haven't remained close since high school, but we were never on anything but good terms with each other so I have no idea why he would choose to ignore me.

sj, it's possible he hasn't noticed the messages? Not sure how often he's on facebook, but it's been really sporadic lately about whether it chooses to tell me someone has messaged me. And then it'll randomly decide a message I got and ignored a month ago should suddenly be highlighted as new and showing up.
