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.

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.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
So I just talked to an attorney about handling Rob's estate. It hurt more than I expected it to. I'd really like this to stop.

I don't think it does stop, Maria. I think it just hurts a little less.

I'm just floored at all the ways that things/actions/moments that used to have no meaning are suddenly fraught with emotion and weight. It's like being blindsided multiple times a day.
The weight of everything is what's surprised me the most.

And I can't listen to music. Too many landmines. It's too quiet now. The TV is always on when I'm at home, and news radio in the car, but I miss listening to music.

(((Maria))) I'm so sorry that you're in so much pain.

Sending much ~ma to GC for good results, and many hugs to Maria.

Not to continue to be all memememe....
You all knew we had problems--ones that were big enough to seriously consider going our separate ways. We both made so many mistakes and held so many grudges and fought the dirtiest way possible, but I've now realized that none of that mattered in the end. I wasted so much time being angry, and I'll regret that for the rest of my life.
