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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I assume these are hairline fractures seeing as how you could do yardwork! You are made of strong stuff, woman.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I suspect that cupcake crumbs are the least of a B&B's worries when it comes to weddings.

Yeah, sometimes I don't understand his reasoning, but I just go with it. I'm fine with cake, as long as we can get a decent gluten-free one that looks pretty.

hip deep in pie

Apparently I have numerous rib fractures and fractures in both hips, which is why my oncologist keeps offering the good drugs. He basically said, "Just don't do anything that really hurts," which is not much help, because I'm always doing things that hurt.

Good god! I'm glad he's giving you the good drugs.

Our wings are not tired.

Ginger, it is good to hear that your tests are encouraging. Yay for good drugs that help enable you to do some of the things you need to do as well as some that you enjoy.

Massive quantities of stress in the Holt household. House/Bank/Evil stuff that might have some kind of movement in some direction this week. It isn't in my nature to worry or stress out, but I am feeling it big time. I'm trying to channel it. I swam for an hour yesterday. Just hate this feeling of helplessness. Yuck.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I guess the hip fractures are hairline. The ribs were broken, but there's not much you can do about broken ribs. Two were pretty painful.

You are made of strong stuff, woman.

I think I'm just stubborn.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Stubborn works, too. So happy for all the good-as-it-can-be news!

Ugh. This saga is so evil, and has gone on for so long, that you are entitled to All The Stress, with heaping side dish of Raaaaaaage. I hope it gets sorted out soon.

Stubborn is good. Keep being stubborn!

Thrive to spite them

When I was in London with Grandma E (we were there on a package tour) we had 2 1/2 days in London and everyone was trying to cram everything in. We decided to be picky. We went to the London Musuem and, it turned out, spend about 6 hours there. But they had a special exhibition for the Rosetta Stone about the whole history of it and it was really cool.

We also went to the Sherlock Holmes Museum. And took taxis instead of dealing with the underground or buses.

I did my first day of real yard work yesterday. I was exhausted, but it felt good.

YAY!

Apparently I have numerous rib fractures and fractures in both hips, which is why my oncologist keeps offering the good drugs. He basically said, "Just don't do anything that really hurts," which is not much help, because I'm always doing things that hurt.

Yikes! But, yay good drugs. and good test results.

Ugh, I'm so sorry. I hope it ends soon for you.

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

I'm glad the PET scan and blood work are good, Ginger. You are a total hero for doing yardwork despite a few hairline fractures. Either that or the good stuff is REALLY good.

House/Bank/Evil stuff that might have some kind of movement in some direction this week

Fingers crossed that it's in the right direction and you can transfer that stress off of your plate and onto the bank's.
