I'm sorry, Jilli.
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I'm so very sorry, Jilli. It's the hardest and saddest decision you have to make for your pets. Much love to you and Pete.

Happy belated birthday, Strix!
I think he was encouraging me to watch guilty pleasure tv.
I think he's a keeper.
Stay safe~ma to those with a hurricane on their way. This is scary.
And thank you to those who posted their words to me since the last time I posted here. I think we're starting to move on, as a community. Personally, it's mostly feeling like I'm planning a party for her. Things she'll appreciate, you know? Though after ~10 days of dealing mostly with that, I think I need a bit of a break. A bit of the old routine, and getting back to writing papers, not "I remember that about her..." posts and managing the different memorial projects.
