Totally get feeling bad for Pony, and it's a shame you can't express that to her. But I'd really encourage you to examine the urge to "do something for" ex-friend. That really took me aback. It's not on you to fix her or her problems.
I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

[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.
... Bartleby _loved_ Pony and so do I. My eyes are stinging with tears wanting to do something for her...
Here is what you do for Pony: You let us know about her, so we send her tons of healing~ma.
Here is what else you do for Pony: You do whatever you need to, to take care of yourself. Pony loves you, she wants you to be happy and healthy. She may not understand why your happiness and health mean you can't be in her life now, but I don't think she has to understand.

POny's person knows damn well what Pony's situation is doing to you. She's taking advantage of both you and the pooch.

She knew that would get to you, which is what manipulators love. Which is hard to grasp if you aren't one.(My stepmother ran over her own foot one time.)

No,no, brenda,I did not mean to do anything for the human, though I'm assuming _she_ would expect me to do something for her out of my love for Pony.
Everyone is right. It's a massive manipulation. I really oughtn't have given it a moment's thought. It's just that silly dog owns some real estate in my heart.
Andi, you are so wise. I _have_ done what I can for Pony by wishing healing for her into the world. Anything else would just be destructive.
I think I need a nap. I woke up at 4am and could not get back to sleep, so I'm running a deficit in the clear thinking department.

I am in the office today, wearing new slacks and my new Danskos. I feel like I look more professional than usual. And yet, I'm having a horrible time with the motivation thing. I'm a pile of don't wanna.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Erin, valium is my go-to. I don't know why it isn't used more.
Bonny, you can't really do anything for Pony except loving thoughts. Even if you could see her.

Ann, that's a ferret.
When I first got treatment for depression, my doctor's initial response was to prescribe valium twice a day. On the second day, I almost fell asleep at work. So if my experience is any guide, it could be a good sleep aid. Maybe too good.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I love my Valium, but it is highly addictive (and I think that the withdrawal from addiction is potentially lethal).

I've never had a problem with it. Maybe I just don't take it enough to get addicted.
