Plenty of nothing~ma to you, Glamcookie.
As I've said before, getting older means finding new ways your body can turn on you.
Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

[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 remember that I used to wake up in the morning and NOT be sore. WTF, man? When did all my parts turn on me? All I did was SLEEP!

Lots of benign nodule~ma, GC.
I'm so bored at work, right now. This job is either feast or famine, but the feast is more like them shoving all the food down your throat and not just having too much to choose from. But for now, there's only so many spreadsheets I can update, so many binders I can purge, so many drawers I can reorganize. I'm actually getting bored with fanfic because I have so much time to play.

We may have some sort of open house when we get settled in. Although it may be a "here's a margarita, want to help us unpack books?" style of party, depending on how quickly we get things done.
That's always a fine way to christen a new home.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Much benign~ma, GC.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Nothing~ma, GC.
sj, I am so thrilled for you. And delighting in a modicum of schadenfreude about the shitty other sellers
So work stress came to a head and we had a talk to clear the air. The issues with this org are so big that it's hard to see what we can do at our level. And there are a few bad apples in key positions who make everyone's life unpleasant and way more stressful than necessary.
IDK. At least it's good to know that my crew aren't snapping at me because they think I'm incompetent, but because of much larger issues.
Speaking of bodies betraying us, has anyone remade "The Reflex" as "The Reflux?" if not, they should.

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.
Lots of ~ma, GC.

Thank you so much for the good wishes, everyone. This place is really the best.

Our wings are not tired.
Sj, so happy for you! I already liked your sellers when I saw the "Keep calm and carry on" poster on the wall.
Glamcookie, hope it's what Chikat said - just a benign annoyance! I thought of you Saturday since I was having lunch with my dog walker (who is also a friend), her wife, their new baby, and another couple whom they met in a "gay and getting pregnant!" class. They were all entertaining me with stories of crazy lesbians and I got to remind them that straights can be cray-cray too. I think you and yur wife would have fit right in with the group and had fun!

We complimented him on that last night. We bought "Keep calm and carry on" mugs on our UK honeymoon, so it was a fitting thing to see when we first walked in.
