Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

Closed Threads

[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 and Kate, there is a page with really good info: [link]

I called the attorney's office to find out where to send money for the boy's family's legal costs. The phone just rang and rang.

The Change.org petition there is actually a good one - every time the petition is signed, it sends a series of emails.

I emailed the DoJ and it bounced back saying the mailbox is full.

There is a March in Florida on March 26 and I am seriously considering flying down there. I've seen all kinds of atrocities in my life but this was a kid doing absolutely NOTHING wrong, walking home from 7-11 with a pack of Skittles for his lil brother and a can of iced tea. I am in anguish.

Thank you. What an awful situation.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I went to skating class, shopped for doggie stuff at PETCO, and spent the day keeping the pups out of the way of J, who has two freelance projects to try and finish before he leaves tomorrow for a week on the road. Poor guy--he just got back from NYC yesterday. Between motorcycle writing trips and car launch events, he's going to be traveling about one week a month for the next few months.

I just started up my iPad! Super exciting. I have a list of apps I want to download, too--there's a list on the new job's website of things people who do my job like. A few I have already, and a few I don't want...and some I'll wait to see if I need, because they are pricey. But several I didn't know about and will totally use!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Erin, give me a heads up when you know if you want the switch, so I know if I send it to you, or pass it on down the line.

Thrive to spite them

Will came up! We had breakfast, then went to the Home & Garden Expo. It was neat, I signed up for a ton of drawings. Also they had local vendors so we tried a bunch of different local/regional alcohol: wine, ice wine, cider, ice cider, honey based vodka and gin, elderberry cordial. Also saw info about a brewery opening up here in town in June.

Then we had lunch, watched some Community and other fun stuff.

Next week Will is going to be gone with more training. He's going to Florida for a few days, then from Florida flying to California. He has the stupidest flight back - they are leaving 9 or 10 pm on Sunday April 1 and getting in Monday morning.

So we're going to try and get some time in this week before he goes.

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

I took a shower, helped my in-laws take some more mementos out of the house, and went with my sister to pick up Rob's vehicle from the dealership 30 miles away. I'm gonna call that productive.

Maria, that sounds more than productive. How are you doing?

Good days and bad days. The pain isn't as sharp, but I keep finding more screwed up crap that is making the mechanics of his estate difficult.

I don't care how little you have, please write a will. It really is a blessing for those left behind.
