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.)
Book: Where's the doctor? Not back yet?
Zoe: (beat) We don't make him hurry for the little stuff. He'll be along.
Book: He could hurry... a little.

[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.

Compassionately intolerant
But I'd really encourage you to examine the urge to "do something for" ex-friend. That really took me aback.
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…
valium is my go-to. I don't know why it isn't used more.
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.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
My doctor gave me klonopin (or whatever unpronounceable generic) as a sleep aid. Same concept, I think. Relaxing your brain a bit rather than directly making you sleepy.

Lorazapam is the only thing to get me to sleep some nights.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I take half a Xanax if I need it, occasionally a whole one. It takes me a few months to go through a bottle of 30 pills. I was taking melatonin every night but the chiro I saw last week suggested giving that a rest for a bit to make sure my pineal gland was still functioning.
bonny, I'm glad you had the presence of mind to talk that situation out here. What a terrible person.
I'm working at least half a day tomorrow. I know I'll be glad when I get my paycheck (last week was only 20 hrs) but right now I'm not looking forward to it. I think I'll go to bed now.
