Sending you much love, Maria
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

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.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Putting the doggy first is no small feat, Maria. Good onya.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Maria's out-laws
I love this term. So appropriate for these people.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
I more than occasionally have fantasies of a dozen of us showing up at Maria's out-laws and politely taking back the puppy.
OK, maybe not the puppy. How about the hockey stick?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Nah, Maria's made the healthiest possible decision for herself. It's hard for us, because we want everything to be right for our friend, but she's doing the right thing for herself. She's made a calculated decision, and it's a good one, if difficult. It hurts to lose the stuff, but in the end, it's just the stuff. So Maria's intent to live her life now as cleanly as possible is a really good one.

Liese speaks the truth here, as she so often does. Letting go is good.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Liese is smart. But we knew that.

Lies is smart. And, you know, emotionally mature ...

The status is NOT quo.
Oh Maria. I'm so sorry. Liese is indeed wise, and for what it's worth, you have another door open here in Pasadena for an escape (so long as you don't mind the dog and four cats that come with it).
And sj, I hope you get good news soon. You know I can empathize.

Thanks, Pix. I hope I am not poking at anyone's wounds when I post. If I am, please stay something, and I'll stop.
