I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Maria, so much love to you father.

Steph, honestly, be ready to leave if you need. I'll be friend in need if we swap numbers. Have an escape plan.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Thanks everyone for the thoughts on clarinet and sax. It's very helpful.

I'm glad your first day went well, askye! Fannish coworkers are a plus.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I missed it, askye. What kind of store are you working in? Glad to hear it is going well so far.

So now my roommate wants me to keep Frankie in my room because the fact that he's having accidents in the common space makes him "uncomfortable." But he won't take him outside to pee, which might reduce the number of accidents. This despite the fact that until his dog died last month she was having accidents in the house, and without being asked I started taking her outside so she could pee. It doesn't help that he hit me with this right as I got home from work and I haven't had lunch yet. He also shut Frankie in the room but left the cat with kidney failure out, and the only litter box is in my room. I hope she didn't pee anywhere.

I'm just done with the world.

Thrive to spite them

smonster I'm so sorry your roommate is being a dick.

I'm working at a Smart Pet store chain doing stocking/cashier. It's way more physical than I've been doing. Right now it's just set up for the store but I got a taste of what I'll be doing when we open.

I think I'm going to enjoy the physically challenging job that isn't so mentally challening. Although honestly working some place where I have to deal with spatial stuff is challenging.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

WTF? Um, no, that's not how co-housing works.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah, what happens if you just tell your roommate no?

Okay, so I'm not nuts and he's being unreasonable.

Our wings are not tired.

You are completely reasonable! It takes a village, yo! This said by new mom of cats abandoned by my next door neighbor who moved away and left them, including the blind one I named Penny.
