Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

[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.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

It sounds like now is not a good time for major surgery; here's to the IUD working out very well!

thanks, all. I think I'll be ok in the short term, anyway. It'll be nice to stop bleeding for a bit, anyway...

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

I am a fan of the IUD, esp the not bleeding part.

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

I got the IUD 4 years ago because of fibroids and pain. It helped a lot. I'm hoping to be well into menopause before it gets uninstalled next fall.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

My IUD has made my life so much better. The crazy bleeding is gone. The horrific cramps are gone. Even the PMS is gone. I wish it had been suggested earlier in my life.

I hope yours helps you.

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.

Here's to your soon-to-be-improved health, Consuela!

Our wings are not tired.

Here's to the IUD doing its job. May you have quick and effective relief.

My mom and both of my sisters had hysterectomies. I was spared those issues and had an uneventful and early menopause.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I stopped getting a period altogether after I got my IUD, which is fantastic.

I am amused to see that Bitches has become an IUD fanfest all of a sudden.

So hey, I've an appropriate topic for Bitches, namely make-up. It has taken me a few years to come around to forming clear opinions about some of these things -- because I am slow I guess? -- but I've been frustrated with all the facial moisturizers I've tried because they were either too greasy (so I just use them at night) or too light to make a difference. And then whether the 1-2 punch of losing Liz and then ita, or just aging into perimenopause, my face has begun showing it's age in terms or crows feet and such and I find that a good moisturizer is an absolute necessity. I think it was Jilli who mentioned Weleda Skin Food? Anyway I'm finally seconding that rec as it is pretty amazing and actually absorbs and works.

Second firmly formed opinion is on foundation options, and I guess that one has only taken me 6 months or so, so a bit more timely in my decision-making process. For me at least Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer comes out ahead of Smashbox BB cream although I like them both. But the tinted moisturizer gives me more moisturizing and more subtle coverage. The BB cream looks like I'm wearing foundation.
