I think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

[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.

Thrive to spite them

Burrell, I know that. I even tried to tell him that but it just got him frustrated because I was "trying to take responsiblity for something that wasn't about me" or I was making it all about me. I wasn't I was trying to say, our home life wasn't great, a lot of it had to do with my illness, my brother's feelings and emotions got shunted to the side and it sucks but it also informs how we react to things today.

But he told me that wasn't how he is. He doesn't let the past influence him.

We've agreed that it would be good if I regularly Skyped with my nephew and we're going to work on times and just start small. I'm hoping that will help.

I'm also going to find some information about the 2 chronic illnesses I deal with and email them to him so he can read them if he wants. If he doesn't then he doesn't.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

As long as you know that, askye, that's what's important. He might have a hard time seeing past his defenses.

askye, it took my brother a long time to finally concede that both my nephew and my son suffer from ADD/ADHD. I mean, close to 30 years of observing them before it finally sank in. There may still be hope for your brother.

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.

Hands smonster a pillow to make her corner comfy.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Much much ~ma for Kara, smonster.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

So much ~ma for Kara, smonster.

TMI update from my appointment today: I haven't fully miscarried yet, but there is no heartbeat at this point. I'm hoping to miscarry over the next two weeks so I can avoid a d&c, mainly because I don't want anesthesia again.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

That's a really rough situation, sj. I'm so sorry.
