Let me know if you need to vent sometime this weekend, bonny. I hope you sleep well.
'Life of the Party'
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.
bonny, sending healing ~ma your way. I also wish I were in arm's reach, so I could help smonster give Cagney a bath and make sure you were well taken-care of.
I was so upset on your behalf, bonny, I just relayed the incident to CJ and he too is furious at your "friend".
Oh bonny, that's horrible! I can't believe she didn't offer to pay your urgent care bill then and there.
I'm speechless. That person (who is decidedly not your friend) is reprehensible.
Many brackets and ~ma to all the Buffistas who need them. Seems like too many need them! I'm lurking but reading.
bonny, I can't fathom how anyone could behave that way! You saved her dog, got bit multiple times, and she's not the slightest bit concerned? That's despicable. I agree that you should present her with that ER bill, and inform her that if she doesn't pay it, civil court awaits. Also, that you aren't friends anymore because she sucks.
Bonny, I may be a Californian by choice, but something like this brings out the NYer in me. I'm sorry, but this is BS. This is contact a lawyer time. Seriously. If they don't call in the morning, and start putting things right, then you need to call a lawyer. You have medical bills, if your arms are that mangled, I suspect work will be difficult, that will be loss of income. If you can't cook, then you have expenses for take-away food. And then pain & suffering. I dunno what you can go after, I'm no lawyer, but, "you are a real sport" and abandoning you? That's Bullshit.
FWIW, omnis, you're a really good trade for not-dead-guy.
Definitely a step up!
Aw shucks. y'all making me blush.
Good GRIEF, bonny! I am nodding at what everyone else has said.
I found this place on Table Talk over on Salon. You people have been a lifeline for me over the years.
November 2006 is when I first posted. And there is a typo in it. ::sigh:: Six and a half years.
Bonny, what everyone else has already said. She's a pitiful example of a friend, if she couldn't see what you had done for her dog, and what sort of shape you're in. I'm so sorry. You deserve so much better than this. Poor Cagney. Is there anyone you can call in the morning to help you give him a bath? Or bathe him for you? If I was within 100 miles... well, I'm not. But I wish I was. And I'm sending you all the positive energy and good, fast healing thoughts I can.
I'm a dinosaur. I go all the way back to the motherthread on TableTalk. June 2, 99. (It's in my preferences. My memory's not that good)
Aims, I've been the beneficiary of Buffista love and spirit, and it is amazing.
