[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 sounds like the circle of suck.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Absolutely no reading materials (or phones, or electronic devices) allowed in the courtroom :( I did petition sucessfully for being allowed to bring knitting (explained that part of working for 911 is constantly multitasking, so i desperately need *something* to do with my hands to keep my brain engaged.) Poor gal next to me had to deal with my fidgetting, doodling, and pen-twirling all day today. I was good tho, no pen-clicking. I know better. And i have plastic circular needles which don't click loudly. So at least tomorrow I'll have something vaguely productive to do, even if it is just a scarf of repetition. Did doodle some nice pysanky designs today, too bad I won't have the long weekend to put them on eggshells in time for Easter!

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I'm just so darned tired from waking up so darned early today. It should have been my Saturday, a day off after three days of 12 hr shifts. Instead of sleeping in i actually got selected, which really shocked me. I started crying during the first opening statement I was so shocked and overwhelmed by all the Dr appts I needed to reschedule. Half way done, still have two more to reschedule tomorrow. I just couldn't cope. Still can't. All out of cope for today. Sleep seems like a damned fine idea and I'll be able to process and cope and think again tomorrow. And make a new Dr appt with the ob/gyn to check out the new cyst and see if that needs intervention also. there's a new thing to add to the list. Processing is good, i guess. Productive. Or something.

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.

Oh, erin... that's too, too much. Lots of warm thoughts (can't remember if you like hugs, so you can have 'em if you like, but I don't want to send you clingy space-invading thoughts if you don't like 'em).

I'm a huggy person, thanks :) My poor kitties are getting forced snuggling tonight. They hate it, but it's the price of twice daily feedings and litter box cleaning. I DEMAND SNUGGLES!

Thrive to spite them

erin that sucks.

It's snowing. It tends to drift in front of my door but the non drift areas seem to be several inches. And it rained earlier and the lid on my trash can came off (I really need a new trash can) so it filled with water, and that froze (I think) and it snowed on it. We don't have covered recycling bins so it snowed on the recycling.

I'm hoping it warms up enough tomorrow I don't have to shovel or scrape. Tomorrow should be my day off but I'm probably going in because the guy working has (I think) pneumonia and has been sick/missing work since Saturday.

Thrive to spite them

I did my taxes but I had to mail in the Renter's Rebate that Vermont does and I printed everything out and crammed it in an envelope and used insulating tape to tape it shut and I did not want to deal with the post office so I put 5 stamps on it. Which is probably over kill but I figure mailing something that could net me some money over kill is always better.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I'm sorry, erin. That's indeed too much.
