Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.  

[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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

erika, I'm sorry about your grandmother. May everything work out for the best. Strength and comfort for everyone concerned.

Laura, ease of hurt both physical and emotional, and healing thoughts to you/

Party on, Little Teacup! Party like it's your birthday!

Zen, may the prep you're doing help your doc better understand what's going on with you, and help you both find some solutions.

askye, best wishes for coping with the doctor's office.

And David, is it too late to wish you luck with your presentation? Because it sounds awesome and they'd be stupid to let the opportunity pass by.

The weather broke today, highs dropped 20 degrees F. I may live.

ltc loves the camera, mostly because she wants to eat my iPhone.

She's all partied out.

TCG was right and I was wrong. There was to much food. We have so many leftovers. At least I don't have to worry about lunch and dinner for the week.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I think it's always better to have too much food than not enough. But I'm also a big fan of leftovers.

True, and we sent people home with things and we have so.much.food. Seriously, who wants to visit? We have a ton of baked ziti, pizza, spinach pies, etc.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Not too late! We're still trying to nail down a date but it does look like it will happen.

Wow, if I could teleport, I would. Seriously, a friend of my brother didn't feed people at his wedding and we still joke about years later.(Not as much as his family, probably.) Cool beans, Hec!

Thrive to spite them

Sj can you freeze anything?

Have an appointment today for Penny. Mom thinks I'm over reacting but I haven't seen any indication of her peeing yesterday or this morning in her litterbox . She doesn't seem as lethargic but if I don't take her in I'm going to fixate on this. I think Mom is being reassuring or maybe she's thinking I can't really afford the vet bill but I wish she'd just say it's a good idea to take her in at least for a check up and peace of mind. Instead of you know they'll want her to have shots.

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

askye, yes. We froze all of the lemon chicken, lots of rolls, and some of the pizza and spinach pies. We even froze some birthday cake. We mostly have things left that won't freeze well. Some baked ziti, pasta marinara, crackers, hummus, baba ganoush, lentil salad, etc. Oh, and I didn't freeze Papa's eggplant parm because nom nom nom.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Okay, I'm posting this here to be accountable: I am going to look for and actually contact potential therapists today. (I don't remember if I said that the one I found was not taking new patients, but she isn't, and then I fell down on the job looking further.)
