Illyria: Wesley's dead. I'm feeling grief for him. I can't seem to control it. I wish to do more violence. Spike: Well, wishes just happen to be horses today.

[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
My wallet can hold a Burt's Bees balm at the very bottom and I can put a lip pencil (Wet & Wild #666, the pencil of the beast) in too. The tube has to be the very bottom though. And it's admittedly tight.
I am sorry you are in still in distress, Ginger. That is just sucktastic.

Oooh, could I match MAC's Del Rio with that, I wonder. Because that is my OTLipColor. Apart from the pencil of the beast.

if I become aware of child abuse
The language I have seen, both in Minnesota and in Arizona, is "reason to suspect" abuse. They should spend a significant portion of the class going over various signs of abuse.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
My wallet being as it is, it would have to be flat, and not real big. I can't use Burt's Bees for some reason; I think it's the lanolin. Makes my lips peel.
Ginger, I'm sorry your guts remain in turmoil. I hope it gets better soon.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm allergic to lanolin. I was using "Udderly Smooth", in the so-attractive holstein-patterned tub. It's great stuff for those who can use it--light, whipped, and it really does moisturize beautifully.
But after using it for a couple of years, it suddenly gave me a rash and the rash went bad quickly, so no more of that.
Burt's Bees has started putting out lanolin-free products, so there are some I can use. I got nothing that would fit in your wallet though, Zen. A pencil sounds like the best idea.

Ginger, ease-ma to your poor guts.
Sometimes between the food and the cosmetic ingredients I feel like I spend half my life reading teeny print on the sides of packaging.

Dear new house manager type person who just applied for the supervisor job:
Yeah, I can actually in fact tell the difference between someone trying to draw me into bad-mouthing a co-worker and someone who is asking an experienced employee about the best strategies for handling certain behaviors. Guess who is going to have a conversation with the Regional Director about those subtle differences?
Good luck with that job app. No love, Me
