Continued interview~ma, Hil!
I'm glad the therapy is helpful, askye.
Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

[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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Today, my little boy is six years old. Huzzah! I have checked his room extensively for portals to Quortoth, but to no avail.
At school, he got a special flourescent yellow chair bag with "Happy Birthday" written on it. At home, he got chocolate cake and a Lego remote control train. He is a happy boy.
Meanwhile, at school two of his friends came up to him to wish him happy birthday, and seek vital information.
Morgan: "What do you want for your birthday, Ryan?"
Angus: "You can't ask him that! You're just supposed to get him something he likes!"
His party is on Sunday, at INFLATABLE WORLD. He shall have all the bounces. Such is his whim.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
I always had to laugh at my uncle who always stressed about packing for vacation with his pop-up camper (4 kids and a wife, a lot to overlooks, as long as it's not any of them). He said he had a major epiphany when he realized that everywhere in America you could buy toilet paper if you forgot it.
Happy Birthday to Ryan! Six! It is to be impossible.

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.
sj, I'm glad you and ltc are ok. And thank you for editing the original post so that Latecomers tothe story didn't have to read far with that heart-sunk feeling.
askye, it sounds like things have really taken an up-swing for you. I am so glad of that.
Ryan, congratulations on six years of making this sorry old world a more joyful place.

That is a thing that he does.

sj, thank you for editing your original post, as to avoid my pani (because it's about me). Glad you and ltc are okay.
I learned my lesson last time. I'm sorry to freak people out at all. I'm feeling a little embarrassed this morning, but the doctor said I did the right thing. And if it happens again, I shouldn't assume it's nothing, I should go back to the hospital and be checked out. I maybe shouldn't have posted here, but I feel so much better when I know buffistas are sending good thoughts my way.

And he does it so well! Happy Birthday to Ryan!

sj, bother us. We want to know when something is up. It is our privilege to send good thoughts to you (and anyone else who might need or want them). That goes for might-be-nothing times and for buckle-up-this-is-gonna-be-a-bumpy-ride times. Pregnant plus bleeding equals medical attention. That you went to the hospital was good. That you shared it with us is also good. That it turned out to be a minor problem rather than a major one, that is even better.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
sj, I'm so relieved that everything is OK. And I'll echo what WindSparrow said so well: we want to know how things are going for you. Whenever you want the ~ma, we want to send it to you.
Happy birthday, impossibly-six-years-old Ryan!

Thanks, WS & Kate.
ION, before I rushed home yesterday I was visiting my friend A and her twins with Mom and a bunch of my honorary aunts. The twins 3 months old now and HUGE; you would never know that one of them had issues eating when he was first born. Also, apparently the Aunts did not believe my mother when she told them how superstitious about gifts before the baby is born because they all showed up with gifts. I thought I could just be gracious and accept them, but I couldn't. I actually felt physically ill looking at them. So someone is holding onto them until ltc is born.
