[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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

what can I send to my mother-in-law, who's just started chemo? It'd be nice to send something more practical than flowers.

I asked Ginger this and my friend loved the gift bag I brought her. Books, magazines, lotion (not too smelly), tea, ginger candies. That's what I remember.

Depending on her personality, a funky, cheerful hat.

edit: or a gorgeous scarf or turban or something.

Thanks, guys.

Scarves are good. The best ones are large square ones made of sort of nubby rayon. Satin and silk scarves slip right off a bald head.

This [link] is a good place for hats for chemo. I wore one of the sleep caps a lot, because my head was cold.

I think I may have a minor case of food poisoning. My stomach has been upset all day and one of the eggs in the egg bake I had yesterday was really under baked.

Never mind. It's probably not food poisoning because it turns out my BCPs have lactose. WTF pharmaceutical companies?

Seriously? What name/brand? I'll want to keep my eyes open as well. (As I send grateful/empathetic vibes to you for being the one to discover this issue).

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

What, really? I didn't know that.
