msbelle, I can't. Not right now. I don't even have the stones to motivate myself right now. I was so public about my journey, and I've fucked it up. I want to hide in the house and never leave.
You got fired, and you still hang around here like a big loser. Why can't he?

[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.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh Maria, you are so very lovely, inside and out. I'm sorry the BIDs are getting you, but remember that they lie.

I've just confirmed that someone who was once one of the foundations of my world, who was pleased to call me sister, left the state this past summer. It's been over five years since we've spoken, and I've mostly come to terms with that, but now there is no one in this state, in this time zone, who really knows me, who knows what I was like 30 years ago, who looked to me for comfort and gave it to me when I needed it. I'm horrified at how alone I feel. I mean, there are people I could call who would come give me a hug, it's not like this is another death. But I really, truly thought that I'd get a call or email that said "Let's get coffee and fix this."

That sucks, Connie. I'm sorry it worked out that way.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Connie, I am so sorry things worked out that way. That's rough, and I can see why you'd be hoping for that kind of call.
Maria, I have been there and done that with that kind of journey and a major step back. If you want to talk/text/email, please let me know.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Yes, Elementary is the 11th episode. I'm now in the 14th as well, but if you see me at all it'll be as a dot in the distance.
FTR, I spent the better part of yesterday freezing my keister off across the street from Jonny Lee and didn't need to be even slightly bailed out of jail. I still maintain that his character-driven lack of hat or gloves means that my running over and cuddling him to my bosom would have been entirely appropriate.

I mean, it's a safety issue.

Right?
I was mostly worried about his widdle ears. They just looked so red. I had cashmere gloves on! I could help!
Sure, Bell and Craigson are bundled. Watson is exquisite as always and entombed in equally exquisite cashmere...
At one point he SPOILER ALERT puts on rubber gloves and I'm all "oh good..."

Maria, darling, you need some salt air and some rowdy music and some good wine and some late nights talking with good people. The curative properties cannot be overstated.

Okay, you just relieved my fear that Bell dies in the next episode. Whew!
