I'm sorry, Pix. I hope you heal quickly!
I'm glad you have unemployment, DCJ.
You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

[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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Quick healing for Buffista feet and butts.
DCJ, may your employer not be the asshole you fear they will.
I'm awake, in bed, surrounded by sleeping cats. I wish my laptop were here. Then I wouldn't have to get up. Except for food and caffeine. Ah well.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Tim's niece emailed me to ask if I could do a little editing on her final paper for her honors project (it's a physics paper, so I told her I could wrangle the grammar and punctuation, but content-wise, I wouldn't know if her paper was about a death ray or cold fusion) (I hope it's a death ray).
Anyway, she started the email with "Hello, Aunt Steph!"
There may have been some tears.

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.

Isn't it a lovely feeling?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
So sweet.
Do parents or otherwise have suggestions for books on grieving pets / pet loss. Maybe aged seven ish. Hivemind, help?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
That's so nice, Steph. She's lucky to have you as an aunt.
Well our insurance company has made the decision for us about when to start IVF because they won't approve any more IUIs. ION, there will be drinking tonight, and possibly brie.

Wine and Brie are awesome ways to deal with news, sj.
I'm moving my book question to Lit.
