This fucking week. This fucking, fucking, goddamn, no good, fucking week.
Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir.

[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.

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.
Nora, I'm sorry you are having such a rough time, as well.

God bless the 21st century. Just got off a video call with Hubby via Facebook. It was wonderful to be able to tell him good night.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sorry, Nora.
Yes, Connie, it must be comforting to be able to see Hubby.

That's wonderful. I'm glad you're able to do that. How is your DH? Does he need anything like books or other media to keep him occupied during this time?
askye, good luck with the new therapist. Try to take it one step at a time and not worry what is going to happen in future steps, if you can.
{{{Nora}}} I'm sorry you're having a bad week.

Peace to you Nora. I hope the week leaves no marks, save a fading image in the rear view mirror.
Connie, how wonderful that technology can make this difficult time easier!
Kuick Kwestion for Kombucha Kueen Steph. (ugh. I'm so sorry about that. I could have resisted, but did not.)
Steph, please forgive me if I've already asked this question...did you say that you do not use ph strips to test your brew?
I'm on the 7th day of my first batch and a bit tentative about stopping the growth just yet. It smells super yeasty when I open the cupboard and I just can't tell if it is done enough.
I used the Anchor Hocking 1 gallon cracker jar, so the scoby is quite wide, but not very thick.
Also, I'm thinking I would prefer to let it set for a bit longer to get more fizz and fermentation.
Ack. Suddenly, the jar seems sort of 'telltale heart'y. It's up there, throbbing away and I can't stop thinking about it...as much as I kind of want to avoid it!
My friend made a chai batch that was supremely yummy. That may be my next move.

I forced myself to go to a wedding shower today for my cousin. It was mostly okay.

Always Anti-fascist!
Social workers suck.*except maybe Buffista ones. Spoke too soon in re detente with my dad. He's back in Dick Mode...it's all too dumb and crazy, but it's all about the way half-brother gets indulged compared to the rest of us.(they are kind of...well, crippling him, if you'll forgive the expression, in addition to insulting my brother who steadfastly refuses to believe that Old Man= selfish, lazy, asshole.)

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Wandering in from the charcoal grey so I can do a quick Birthday-Attention-Ho Drive-By! Thanks for the Bday wishes on FB, y'all! It's been a pretty nice day - slept in a bit, did brunch with Mom, did a few errands (incl Birthday Brow Wax, yay!) and went to a dinner party hosted by a friend whose birthday is also today (but who made sure to remind everyone that it's my bday too).
Thanks for being here, lovely & charming Buffistas. It means so much, even when I rarely have time to say so. Y'all were a greeat unbirthday present!
Now, start pelting me with JOY!
P.S. This is also your 2-day warning for the birthday of the also-fabulous Steph!
