Your poor, brother!
Hard enough dealing with the loss of your parent without people finding an ounce of compassion or forgiveness.
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

[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'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Ugh. Something similar happened with my grandmother's funeral, though fortunately I think it wasn't as bad. I mean, I can understand why it might sting a bit, but on the other hand, it's far from the most important issue surrounding a funeral. I'm sorry about the drama, Laura.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Man, Steph, I'm so sorry. Wishing good things for your friend.
askye, you owned that mansplainer LIKE A BOSS. I thoroughly enjoyed reading that convo, at least your part and Matt's.
Y'all had to go and bring up Fluevog's, and here I am in the Quarter where we have a Fluevog store that I had as of yet successfully avoided.
I still didn't sleep well last night, despite taking an Ambien. It's been months since I saw my PT, I think I'm going to have to give in and make an appointment. I am at a symposium on the economic benefits of Historic Preservation and struggling to stay awake.

Oh, Laura, I'm so sorry.

Our wings are not tired.
Mom had 8 grandchildren and 7 (not 5) great grandchildren. I wish I could say I didn't know how we could have managed to forget the 2 youngest, but I do. We weren't in our right minds! Seriously, this is just because everything is all about her and I am not in a forgiving mood. My brother unfortunately has a different perspective and fears he won't see her or her kids again. Bitch. And I don't mean that in a good way.

Thrive to spite them
I'm so sorry Laura. That they couldn't see the amount of grief and stress caused an over sight.
Went to the dentist .. I got a little too zealous in my oral hygiene and irritated my gums. So I've been told to be gentler and do salt water rinses.
Also this was a hygienist I hadn't seen before...I think. And she was awesome as soon as I fibushed saying "I have Asperger's and sensory issues" she got it.
Passed my drug test and go full out paperwork tomorrow

I'm sorry, Laura.

re: mansplaining. Just now in the break room, a bunch of guy were trying to mansplain how the water fountain works to each other. Though it's probably just know-it-all-ism at that point, and gender is irrelevant.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Ugh, I'm sorry Laura. That kind of drama is the last thing you need right now!
Steph, how scary - I'm glad it was brief, but it must have felt much longer.
esse, that clip, um. Yeah.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Laura, I'm so sorry! You shouldn't have to deal with that.
Beth, I'm sorry about the work stress.
Steph, that is so scary. I'm sorry. Yay, for raise!
I'm wearing pleather leggings today. I feel sort of badass.
