You're so influential!
Yes, that.
(You see? That's being amazing. So shush, ya'll).
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

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.

My PCP wants me to see my oncologist because of the freaky blood tests. Excuse me while I panic.

it's kind of an intimate thing to borrow. Expensive, too, right?

Freaky, how? t edit Ginger, sorry; I don't mean to pry, and you don't need to share. My instinct is to try to alleviate panic by looking at the facts, which is why I asked.
Can we help alleviate panic in any way for you?

Well, they're generally worn as outerwear, over a dress/blouse/shirt, pretty much like I've seen Buffistas do. It's red and black vinyl, off-the-rack (not custom-made to my measurements), which makes it much more affordable than a custom-made one: [link] (Some day I'll get a custom made one, but it's like a second tattoo: I can't decide what I want it to look like.)
But even so, I still want it back. I'd want a sweater back. I like my stuff to be with me.
I will *not* lend out the flamey one, because it was much more expensive even though it's also off-the-rack, because it's an overbust and it's all leather. Also I love it to pieces and don't want it out of my sight.

Ginger: here's hoping it's just your doctor being extra cautious.

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.
I start therapy today. First time in years. I'm terrified.
Here's to establishing a good therapeutic relationship. May it go well for you.
Teppy, that is frustrating. I hope she does not put you off any further.
Ginger, lots of oncologist-happily-reassuring-that-it's-nothing~ma.

What sumi said, Ginger. Fingers crossed it's just an anomalous reading of some kind.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
What Andi said. Lots of healing and health to my lovely Buffistas.

Yeah, Ginger, my mom has a yearly appointment with hers. And, Tep, I just meant to say that if I borrowed something like that, I'd get it back to the person, not that you wouldn't want it back after she is done.
