[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.

Thrive to spite them

Today I helped Chico the Yorkie get a new wardrobe and a harness instead of a collar. He was pulling on his collar and choking himself so that was good.

Also petted a boxer named Tula. Then played with the nephew after work.

Compassionately intolerant

Laura, I had my first one within the year and it really wasn't that bad.

Good root removal ~ma to you!

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

and my doctor told me she has had an unbelievably huge amount of patients asking for IUDs

This is the only thing that is getting me to my girly bits 'annual' this month. Once I book it. I just am so seriously over fighting for this shit just because I have a uterus. We aren't sharks. There is no human pathogenesis as far as I know. Why is this only a "woman" issue?

I know, I am bitching to the choir.

Our wings are not tired

If anyone has advice for me on the job/money front,

I don't have anything specific to your industry, but I have been working essentially freelance for close to 15 years now. Somehow I see running my little corporation as still freelancing, I just need to keep more people working. I may have some insight into surviving in the "gig economy" that it seems you've ended up caught yourself in. I'm always happy to chat.

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.

Whose bright idea was it to make the liberal arts/psychology/person-centered/relationship-building woman do payroll? Daniel may have been prescient; I was met at the door with the scent of brownies.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Jesus, therapy is hard. So I am watching last night's Arrow to recover (I wasn't home last night and I'm waiting for my coordinator to send me articles, so I have a little free time).

Teppy, I'm sorry therapy is so hard.

ltc is napping, and my inlaws should be here soon. I'm tempted to go out when they get here and find someplace with wifi to watch Arrow.

Do it! It was even better than I hoped. They really hit it out of the park with this one.

It has to be hard, I guess, or else I won't fix the stuff that needs to be fixed. I do get that, honestly. But man, hard therapy is HARD. t /tautology

Will I end up embarrassing myself by crying in public?

Quite possibly. I cried (more than once), but it's hard to say whether it was because I was already emotional from therapy, or because the episode was THAT GOOD. Though I kind of lean towards the episode being THAT GOOD. (Admittedly, the points where I cried are definitely my specific emotional buttons. And Stephen Amell sold the hell out of it.)
