Erin,
I am a Virgo, love to declutter when I have fucking time! Thanks for the link. Hopefully I will pay attention to it.
You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

[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.

re: sitting shiva
I read a really funny (like I was laughing out loud the whole time I read it), but really gross, definitely rated "R" book that had this as a feature. This is where I leave you
It is wildly inappropriate and the shiva was seven days.

Le N, I didn't know you were a fella Virgo! WOOT!
Course, I am on the cusp of Leo/Virgo (8/23) so I am a clean, detail-oriented freak with pretty hair and a vivacious charm.
According to Astrology.com, which is a PERFECTLY CROMULENT PSEUDOSCIENCE, RIGHT?
Le sigh. Back to le cleaning. Pre-NYE, but hey, it also means I start the new year off with a clean house, so...

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.
Lots of ~ma for you, Anne. This time of year steals so much of whatever coping mechanisms we have.

bonny, you are still in my thoughts.
Aims, I love that picture of you and your sister - and I'm glad your meeting with her went so well.

God, so true.
A year ago, the daughter of one of my neighbors died in a horrible fire with seven other young people. It's been a hard year for this group of friends, who were close to both mother and daughter. Here's a story about the fire and the community: [link] (My friend's name is Rebecca S. and her daughter's name is Melissa M.)

Thrive to spite them
I found out that I'm going to be a regular part time employee! I asked and I should get about 8-12 hrs per week, with the chance to pick up more.
I've already picked up 10 extra hours this week. It's not huge money or anything but it's good to be working and the store manager told me "we really like you!" which was nice to hear.
Then I went and splurged on a small space heater and some thick, cheap fleece throws to cover windows and what not.

And I'm lucky I left when I did - they closed 89 from exit 10 (a few before where I work) to past where I work.
It wasn't fun driving home, there was snow on the road and the only visible road were the tracks from where the cars drove in front of me. When I left work there was no snow on the road there and it wasn't snowing but as I got north it got worse.

I was careful, I went really slow, although at one point (before the roads were really snowy) I did pass 2 cars, it was getting hard to stay as safe distance. The car in front of me would go fast, then brake and slow way down, so I just passed them, which wasn't hard, I didn't get over 60 to pass them.
I felt the car slide a couple of times but I didn't go off the road and I remembered not to brake when the car slid. I still have my snow tires in the trunk. I'm not sure if it helps the car being heavier, but I think I'll leave them in there.
