oh askye,
I'm so sorry. Please don't blame yourself.
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

[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.

{{askye}} I am so sorry, that's a really rough thing to have to face. You did the best you could for Maddie, she was very fortunate to have you as her human for the time she was with you.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
(((Askye))) I'm so sorry. I know how upsetting and difficult it is, but she knew she was loved, and you were a good human for her.

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?
{{{askye}}} I am so so sorry, honey. You were a wonderful human to her and you loved her.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
askye, I'm so sorry! You did everything you could, it's not your fault.
ND, I can only sympathize and wish you and your family well. I've been there, trying to help an aging parent, it's so very hard.

Our wings are not tired.
Askye, I'm terribly sorry. Everyone is right - you did exactly what the vet said. Please don't feel guilty. I'm so glad you have Dean there to snuggle you.

Thanks everyone. It was just such a shock and I'm feeling less...shocky and I do realize I did everything I could.

I just remembered something I've been meaning to mention one of the exhibits next year at the Shelburne Museum is going to be "Time Machines: Robots, Rockets, and Steampunk".
The season doesn't start until May but I'm excited about the exhibit and if I can take pictures I will. Steampunk yay!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I am very sorry, askye.
