You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love till it kills you both.

Spike ,'Sleeper'


Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.  

[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.

I'm sorry sleep is such an issue, WS. My insomnia has pretty much been cured (after 50 years), but the cure is on the other end. I wake up ridiculously early, and don't get a moment's rest all day. After going from about 5:30am non-stop I try and read or watch tv at night and out cold. Last night I really wanted to finish 2 pages of the chapter and after a half dozen times dropping the Nook I gave up. No matter how early I wake though there is no going back to sleep.

You'd have thought that fly was the reincarnation of Jack the Ripper.

Zoe is this way too! What is even more hysterical is when she catches the fly. She reacts pretty much like I would if I got a fly in my mouth. Yuck, yuck, fly on my tongue! Get it off!

No Gaiman tickets for me. Sad now.

Bummer. I'm sorry. I'd love to see him too.

I can't convince TCG we should get tickets to one of the UK readings, something about not being able to afford it. . Sadly he really isn't doing many stops in the New England area.

Ann, that's a ferret.

FB people already know this, but

Arthur is in kidney failure. He isn't even 3 years old yet. We're waiting for the test results to see what we do next, but we're starting the fluids and the lower protein diet. At least, we're trying to -- Arthur was very uncooperative last night.

And I'm trying not to cry. Especially since I'm part of a big presentation in less than 2 hours.

Oh, Fred Pete. My dear, I am so sorry.

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.

Harvey's best purr-vibes for you and Arthur, Fred. And for the rest of your household.

Remember a couple weeks ago when I asked about microfiber sheets, then concluded I might like them for winter sheets but wanted to stick with cotton for summer? Well, it turns out that the sheets I got were a bait-and-switch. In fine print above the bold 1500 THREAD COUNT EGYPTIAN COTTON says high strength microfiber yarns as soft as. I like 'em just fine. What's more, the cats like them. Harvey is now actually sleeping on the pillow I bought for him, instead of nudging me off my pillow. And Sammie will lie down on the sheets rather than the comforter if she gets to the bed before I make it.

I just really dislike the deception.
