'Harm's Way'
[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.
anipal. i'm snickering, and snifling; she really was dad's best buddy. he is wrought. I have seen him cry a lot yesterday and today.
jilli, that is too bad about the lack of time accrual; retail can be tiring...so mucg standing. i how your dad gets a break and is heartier. much love.
is wearing him out, and he just seems ... frailer than I remember. I told him I was worried about him, and he said, "Oh, don't worry about me, I'll be fine."
Talking to him and being clear that you love him and are worried about him is the best you can do. And I think he'll listen. This last year has been really hard on him but he loves you.
Lots of hairpats, Jilli. To both of you, if your dad will accept virtual hairpats from a kindly stranger.
Oh, Erin. Sorry about your FOOSH! I personally am willing to spot you at least 5/8 of a badass point; just don't tell Hec.
OK, weird--a friend just posted on FB "Thinking about our friend sarah myers, who is getting married right now, smyers we love you!" and I did a serious doubletake.
She did NOT tell us this. Or it's a different person. Probably the later.
Still weird.
Ha, I am pretty sure she is not getting married tonight.
It's no FOOSH, but good lord does my ear hurt. I haven't had ear pain like this in years. I've taken decongestants, Advil, and now (in desperation) a leftover tylenol with codeine. I've already tried hydrogen peroxide and later warm olive oil and a hot compress. Nothing seems to help. This constant discomfort/pain thing sucks.
ETA: And now I can't remember if I actually typed my sympathies for Erin's no good very bad day or thought about them. If I didn't type them already, my apologies Erin. What a rotten day, and I'm so sorry about your poor arm. FOOSH may be the best acronym ever, however.
Hairpats for Jilli and gentle not-getting-anywhere-near-that-ear warm thoughts for Pix's ear.
Oh Jilli, I missed your post. Hairpats and hugs, sweetie.
hairpats to Jilli and hugs to Pix. Yay for Ginger having a good day, may there be many more.
Jeeeeeeeez, Erin, that's a brutal 24 hours for you and your family.
Slight introvert/extrovert anxiety happening tonight. I haven't been putting in any quality or quantity of social time with the neighborhood friends lately. I had just worked myself up to go to a impromptu BBQ gathering type thing (it took a while to get to that point) but Tom lost the nerve to go. And I just feel... like a loser, and that we'll lose our friends because we just don't put the effort in.
I don't think I'm saying this right, but I'm feeling blue and anxious. And Tom's anxious that I'm mad at him for pulling the plug on going out.
So, it's a weird vibe over here tonight. Damn you, insidious social anxiety! Though, I have been social a LOT the last couple weeks, and pretty much every day since a week ago Thursday. Maybe I'm just burned out.
