And I'll just bet that replying, "Well, better a handicapped child than a normal one who grows up to be an ass hole I suppose" is somehow rude, huh?
Not if you add "hypothetically."
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

[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.

I have done onerous work related but yet will result in money for me tasks. Three expense sheets and one medical claim submittal. Should net some nice cash for holiday stuff. Of course, it is all reimbusing money I've already spent, but it feels like new money.

Hah. I think it would only be deserved. Family or not.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Man, Tim is a rock star. The poor guy had oral surgery this morning (gum grafts, eeek) and needs to take his pain meds. But no, he had to drive me to urgent care b/c my 3-day migraine suddenly got worse (vertigo when I previously had none, stabbing behind both eyes when it was previously just one eye). Apparently my blood pressure is really high, even for a Lang. I'm waiting for the doctor and undoubtedly a shot of Toradol in my bottom. And then my poor husband whose mouth hurts can go home and take pain meds.
Man, I am the worst wife ever. I should be making him mashed taters for his sore mouth, not keeping him from his narcotics and forcing him to drive me to urgent care. Bah.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh Steph, that sounds hard on both of you. Sending many vibes that you both get home soon. And agreed, Tim's a rock star. Good thing you married him.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I found out that she does not want to donate any organs or body parts (which pisses me off, but those are her wishes)
My Dad didn't either and I was surprised. But honored his wishes.
He's a rock star. Hopefully you both get pain relief soon.

I got a shot of Toradol on one side and phenergan on the other. Now I'm just waiting for them to finish the paperwork so I can go home and poor Tim can take his painkillers.

I want phenergan like mad. I swear I daydream about the cough syrup with that and codeine the last two weeks. Stupid bronchitis.
Go forth and be heavily medicated newlyweds.

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.
Teppy, I hope you are both feeling better by the time you see this.
