For those asking Yom Kippur includes a water fast. Also there is a health exception, and some people do include any degree of sickness that fasting makes worse, but others only make exceptions if fasting has a chance of causing death or a permanent worsening of health.
Note to self: religion freaky.

[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.

I thought so, TB, but I am a heathen who took a very short course in comparative religion...thought maybe I was looking for a loophole.

Tb,
no water either? Glad I'm not a Jew. I'd be dead after one observance.

In other fuck cancer news, our senior kitty Byron's has returned. We found out today. He's basically on hospice with us until the time comes, which will likely be soon.

Happy Birthday, omnis!
TCG and I had dinner tonight with Karen (I can't remember her board name since she hasn't posted here in a while) and her BF at a fabulous English Pub. We had a great time. We also went to the Victoria & Albert Museum (sadly the dress exhibit is currently closed) and to Portobello Road, where I bought lots of goodies, including a pair of spats.

Oh no! Pix, I am so sorry. Selfishly, I'm glad we got to visit with Byron last week, because he's such a wonderful cat.

Dear 2011,
I realize that you are determined to hold on to your title of HORRIBLE YEAR, but really, now is the time for coasting on your earlier "achievements". Why don't you just relax, and not do anything else bad or upsetting, 'kay?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Oh, I am so sorry about Byron! I so adore him. I hope you get some good time with him.
