Thinking of you, Maria.
sj, I like the new house possibility. All those big windows and wooden floors make it look light and sleek. I hope it comes through for you.
Do you know what else has blood in it? Blood.

[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.

The status is NOT quo.
Oh ChiKat, I'm so sorry for your loss.
sj, I love the new place!!! I really hope you get it.
There's more. Brain failure.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Maria knew today that there were many hidden faces from here behind the five of us physically present today.
Thank you all for going for us.
The agent has gotten back to us with a counter offer and we have counter offered again.
Sweet. And this time when it gets to home inspection, you'll have been through one and will know what to expect.

Punishingly Intricate
ChiKat, I'm so sorry for your loss.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Totally went back to sleep today. Missed all the parades. Ah well, I'll catch them next year. I hope I can still get to sleep tonight.
I am feeling like I've hit a plateau in a lot of ways. Waiting to see what that means, and how I can move past it. I'm coming to terms with the fact that I've been financially irresponsible for pretty much my whole life, and that digging myself out will be very hard. I've just barely gotten to living within my means, and that's been super difficult. Staring down a long road of being broke, and not liking it.
Meh. Anyone wanna come over and pet my hair?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I will pat your hair. ::pets smonster::
ChiKat - I am so sorry, love. Losing a pet is so very hard. Thinking of you lots.

Aww. I'm sorry smonster. I'm having similar issues with my eating habits--I've been on a strict diet for about a week and a half, and have cheated most days (though not too badly--only the day I had 1.5 cupcakes in celebration of the new job was super bad). And the thing is, much as it's hard for cravings, it's a little embarassing and horrifying to realize I'm quite full on what I'm eating, even though it's probably half what I would normally eat. But I don't WANNA! I wanna eat whatever I want! But I'm really get to a point where I can't--I weigh almost 40 pounds more than when I moved to Seattle. And that's not good for me at all (not just in how I look at myself!)
Also grumpy because I gave in to temptation and texted the girl from Saturday night...several hours ago with no response. Sigh. I thought we had a good time. Who knows.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
sj, I almost wish you could call that other agent and tell her.
