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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Sending much love and hugs and ~ma to bonny and Bartleby.

smonster, I'm searching for supportive things to say and coming up all bras.

Erin, how frustrating and scary - hope the direct deposit situation gets cleared up with a minimum of fuss and bother.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Had the meeting. Program manager is leaving for family reasons, effective at the end of the month. I think it's all going to be okay, though three other employees have recently given notice. I think it's all just burn out, needing more money, and a coincidence, and not a sinking ship situation. But who knows. My supervisor is talking to the program mgr right now, I'll check in with him later.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

{{{bonny and Bartleby}}}} All kinds of love and ~ma sent to you.

Oh, damn. I don't even know how I got there, but this article on Oprah's website (of all places) is kind of kicking my ass right now.

Somewhere deep inside of me I knew that if 100 percent Pam was really starting to piss Randy off, then maybe 60 percent Pam would piss him off less. I didn't articulate that to myself, and the fact that I didn't scares me. I shut myself down incrementally without being forced or even asked.

Fuuuuck. I do this, again and again, without realizing it consciously. I make myself smaller, I bend and contort to fit into other peoples' live. Must keep working on not doing that.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I bend and contort to fit into other peoples' live.

I have always, *always* done that. I let people tell me what I should be, what I should do, what I should *want* -- and then I do that.

I'm way better at not doing it now, but I do still do it. I catch myself doing it far too often.

So, I feel you.
