I feel that way, like, constantly, Maria. And I'm not grieving a fresh loss.
This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

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.

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
I'm beginning to suspect it will always suck at least a little, Maria.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Mixed emotions make us human. You can be happy for them and have it be a little sad for you at the same time, Maria.
Yes, this. Many hugs for you.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Hugs, Maria. Mixed emotions are totally natural, and the mix will shift over time.

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
Thanks, all. I'm getting to a really good place, but there are still things that sting. I have a feeling this particular one will do so for a while.
I never expected to not be a mom, let alone a widow at 39.

The status is NOT quo.
It is such a painful process. I'm so sorry.

Our wings are not tired.
Maria, in my 59 years absolutely nothing has ever turned out the way I expected. I think I might be at a place where I comfortably just go with the flow. I know for sure that I no longer have expectations.
We have no control over anything except our own thoughts and actions and I am so very impressed and proud of the positive strides you have made in those.
