Scrappy, I am so glad you could be there with your mom. You and she are both in my thoughts.
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

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.

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

Zen, 20K for "seed" money? On top of trips to Europe?
I hope your sister is well-off, because my WTFF face is EPIC.
Wow. Just...wow. That's a fucking down-payment on a HOUSE!
If my parets had been able to give me $3K (not $30k!) in seed money for my biz, I would have insisted on a contract, really nice business cards, and I would have paid a website developer to do my site, and been ecstatic to buy a good laptop and go to some conferences.
SMH.
bonny, I am SO GLAD the doggy sitch worked out well!

Scrappy,
I'm glad you could be there with your mom during her diagnosis as well. I was rooting for an infection that was easily treatable.

Xpost with Natter:
At Sephora, Urban Decay eyeshadows (single pots) are changing their packaging, and about 24 shades are marked down from $18 to $6.
This may be of interest to some Buffistas...

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Scrappy, that is terrible news. I'm glad you can be there for her.

How awful, Scrappy. I'm sorry.
