Doggie!
Well, look who just popped open a fresh can of venom.

[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.

Gris, I am so sorry for your loss! I hope you are able to make all of the arrangements and still have the time and energy to take some time to grieve and remember your grandparents. Take care of yourself.
~ma sent to SailAweigh's co-worker. Scary stuff.

It's July 16th-18th,
Whoo-hoo! 1) Be prepared, it will be hot and steamy. VERY MUCH SO. Dress light, and... don't wear anything that will be ruined by sweating. 2) Tom and I often vacation in July, so just update us on what weekend you're here for as soon as you know!
Yay!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Hil, that's terrific! Yay for doggies.
Maria, am excited to see you. What Nora said about clothing.
Right now I just want to say FUCKIT and get some kind of boring, easy corporate job that pays 40k and offers healthcare. Those exist, right?

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
Ah sorry, the fungus is in Oregon:
In most areas of North America, Armillaria solidipes can be separated from other species by its physical features. Its brown colors, fairly prominent scales featured on its cap, and the well-developed ring on its stem sets it apart from any Armillaria. (Herink, 1973)
It is known to be one of the largest living organisms, where scientists have estimated a single specimen found in Malheur National Forest in Oregon to have been growing for some 2,400 years, covering 3.4 square miles (8.4 km²) and colloquially named the "Humongous Fungus."
Ah, found the one I was thinking of:
Another "humongous fungus" is a specimen of Armillaria gallica found at a site near Crystal Falls, Michigan, which covered 0.15 square kilometres (37 acres).
Hil, glad to hear the landlady is being cool about a dog.
{{Gris}} All my sympathy to your family. That's a really tough thing to have to deal with.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Hil, that's good news. I hope you find a suitable companion quickly.
Sail, much ~ma for your coworker.
Weather and clothing tips noted. Nora, I'll let you know as soon as I can.

Oh, just so you know, that wasn't a pressure type of thing, we haven't even talked about vacation stuff yet, I just know that often that time of the summer gets a little busy for us and thought I'd implant the thought of keeping us up to date/in the loop. This is something I've learned to do since living here, because people tend to not remember anything without gentle reminders.
Though we may be saving our pennies and vacation days for going to Ireland in the fall to see Tom's nephew graduate from Trinity.
