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.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm so sorry, Jilli and Pete.

Jilli, I'm so sorry.

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.

Remember the hole in the bedroom floor (and porch). Well. The construction folks have arrived. They arrived 20 minutes ahead of the time I was told. I was still nakie when they rang the bell. Lucky I was sitting when they peered through the bedroom window, so. Whew? Anyhow. 51 days from hole discovery, repair crew begins. Woot? 100 hours have been allocated. 2 guys. Monday is a holiday. They can only work 8 in a day (CA overtime rules). So? I'm guessing they will be done next Wednesday? :: sigh ::
