[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.

I hope there were Reese's eggs involved. t edit For Brenda, not sj, because I suspect Reeses's eggs aren't approved for the GD diet.

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

No which means others should eat them. TCG and I usually give each other cheesy Easter baskets with candy. We couldn't do that this year. So he got bourbon and beer and I got a pricey book.

Oh and today is free cone day from Ben & Jerrys so someone should go have one of those as well.

How is it that you people still have Easter candy? Easter was like 8 days ago! I've already eaten all my post-Easter sale candy even.

Free cone day?!? Why are there no scoop shops near me? (And by "near me," I mean "within 1 mile, because lo, I am lazy.")

Tim gave me a LOT of candy, and I have some serious Body Image Demons right now, so I'm able to exercise some moderation.

And yet I'm taking TJ's chocolate-covered sea salt butterscotch caramels to the damn board meeting tonight. To share. Wait -- that should be "to share".

The closest scoop shop is an hour away with traffic and I would be there right now if I could go. I'm glad I went there for a sundae before the diagnosis.

Heck, I still have Halloween candy. Mmm, after season sales on candy corn.

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.

Anxiety sucks. Feeling like you are being pulled under, also sucks. Feeling like you won't get thenkind of emotional support you need sucks even worse. Just in case it might be of use, here [link] is a communication chart. We use them with people who have a hard time saying what they need, etc. It helps us share our knowledge of how to support them. The seminar at which I was introduced to this communication tool, the trainer said she has seen women take a copy, saying they were going to fill it out for themselves and leave it on their refrigerators at home for their boyfriends/husbands. The basic format is "In this situation... when you see me doing this... it means... so to help me, please...." Steph's will NEVER say, "I got a nasty email from my boss, and now I am sitting immobile and unblinking; it means I am freaking the fuck out, so please comfort me by hugging me."
