Oh, Sail. I am so sorry. There should be a law that pets can't die and they need to stay healthy and happy forever.

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.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
Forever would be nice. Tucker was just one of the sweetest cats ever. He didn't like laps, but he was perfectly happy to sit next to you on whichever piece of furniture you inhabited. He didn't like to drink from the water bowl, so he would wait on the bathmat next to the tub until I was finished showering and then he'd hop right in and start licking all the water off the bottom of the tub. He did toilets too, anything with running water. Now Elliot has started waiting while I shower and while he doesn't hop into the tub, he hops up on the edge until I'm done toweling off. It's like he thinks he has to fill in for Tucker. Sometimes it's sweet, sometimes it just makes me want to cry.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Sail, I am very sorry. It's really hard to lose something beloved.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Oh, Sail. It has been an absolutely wretched season for Buffista pets, I don't even know. I"m so sorry about Tucker, and glad you still have Eliot.
Spent time today helping StW move power tools out of his ex's shed. She wasn't there. Then we got pizza and watched Colbert. He just left to go do more work. I thought about doing the temptress thing, but I've got shit to do as well. Busy busy, both of us.

I'm sorry Sail, I know how hard it is to lose a beloved pet.

With a split screen cover of StW in his habitual blue hoodie, but no t-shirt, in an exaggeratedly studious pose in front of a laptop; and me, passed out asleep as the clock shows 9 pm, seductive in skully long johns and surround by snoring pets.

Thrive to spite them
I meant to comment on this the other day because it was a positive customer experience.
A couple college girls came in and were buying t shirts or something. And we have these displays of rings for "impulse" (although I've never sold one) and one of the girls looked at them and asks her friend "Do you like these?"
Her friend says "no not really" and the first girl says "You're right they are gay."
I gritted my teeth and I really wanted to say something but I didn't.
Then her friend said "That's not really a good word to describe stuff." And the first girl was quiet for a minute and then said "Okay, these are.....silly" And her friend replied "yeah that's a good word."
I was so glad I overheard the exchange and I still wanted to say something positive but I didn't.
Of course there were also 2 college girls last night spending $60 each on random stuff and all the while saying they hadn't eaten fresh fruit or eaten healthy in awhile because it's too expensive.
