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.

He's a young man of 18 now who is playing in the Ontario junior hockey league. He should be a cocky little ass but he's one of the best young men I know.

And I guess he's your Valentine today. Putting it together it looks like Rob's legacy is trying to save Valentine's Day from being a total disaster for you. Maybe you should listen to that. Let a little grace into this moment.

It is *seriously* friggin' cold here, but my phone says it's only 50. It feels waaay colder than that. I will never be able to live in a more northerly clime again.

Maria, I wish we could magically get you through the gaping wound part to the place where the pain is melancholy instead. But I guess that runs the risk of missing the part where incredibly gracious young men step up.

You're too soft for Michigan now, man. You can't go back.
Just think if we'd just kept Joe and Aims in L.A. for a couple more years they never would have made the worst mistake of their lives that move.

I'm with Sean, it's damn chilly here. And cold/snow/ice was one of the reasons I left Dallas and came back to CA. I'm thankful we only have one of the three. But dang it, I want it comfortably warm!
Is it wrong that I'm thinking of the awesome porch, and sitting on it watching the sun set on a regular basis? Trying not to count chickens...

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh Maria, I have been holding you in my thoughts all day. Rob must have been a wonderful coach, to have touched those kids in such a complete way.

Our wings are not tired.
Oh I am totally tearing up at that text, Maria. So sweet! You're surrounded literally and figuratively by people who love you and Rob.
This is my last night at NeurogesX. Tomorrow I am being taken out to lunch, and then I have my exit interview. Almost 5 years, and here I am cleaning out my files at 10PM.
