I must have registered five minutes before you, amyth, because my number is 344 and yours is 351.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

[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.

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.

I think I'll be at ten years shortly. Or it may have just passed.

I started lurking on Salon around the time of Earshot getting banned because of Columbine. But I don't think I posted until late 2000/early 2001. I think Knut delurked around the same time as me?? ETA: I delurked in the third thread on Jan 20/2000. I was almost a year off.

I know I started posting during the Quote Deathmatch. But I'm on my phone, so it's a pain to archive dive. I feel like that was summer of 2002.

Compassionately intolerant
I'd so appreciate some good thoughts.
I'd love to participate in helping out but I've just spent the last 5 hours in the urgent care having 15 puncture wounds made by several bites from my friend's new rescue dog.
Not even a client dog.
One bite hit an artery in my left hand and, because I've been taking the prescription dose of Advil for the constant pain in my shoulder, 4 of the punctures are STILL bleeding...6 hours later.
It cost me $225 dollars. The friend whose dog it was gave me $20 for the cab home because she had dinner plans and could not wait with me. She applauded me for 'being such a good sport.'
Then, when I finally dragged myself home, my best friend did not have time to talk to me.
Cagney's neck was covered with my blood when I took him back out of his crate, but I could not wash it off because I don't want to get my bandaged hands wet...and it hurts.
I also had to get a tetanus shot, in the non-injured arm, so now both arms are useless to me.
I have to take a painkiller that is potentially addictive and is likely to make me feel even worse than the Advil has.
This day has been total crap and I don't even know how to feel.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
OMG BONNY!! "good sport" my ass. She gets to reimburse you $225.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Oh, Bonny. I don't even know what to say to all of that. How horrible. All sorts of ~ma headed your way.

WTF?!?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
bonny, what in the everloving FUCK. That is unacceptable. That is not a friend. She should have ditched her plans, taken you to the ER, and paid for EVERYTHING. I am furious on your behalf. I wish I lived closer! I wish I could come over and take care of you and clean up Cagney.

That's horrible, Bonny. And Aims is right, she should cover you medical expenses. I hope you heal up quickly.
