Good Bartleby! I'm glad he got some cake as a treat too.

[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.

Steph, I can't imagine what is making you feel that way about yourself...but it must feel terrible.
I just know that you are a shining light around here and I always smile when I think of you and the awesome life you have created for yourself.
I just hope whatever it is passes quickly and leaves no marks.

He'd have LOVED that, and apparently, in the afterlife, dogs can eat stuff like that with no tummy ache.
I'm fascinated by the Time Banditesque symbolism of the hardest thing in my life (my only actual 'problem') represented by a yummy cake and then a piece of it is left behind. Only this time, instead of being ominously hidden away, it was transformed by loving energy.
He really is/was the best boy.

Laura has now ear-wormed me with The Jungle.
Totally worth telling the tale then. It isn't actually something I would recognize, but it is what DH listens to.

I haven't even talked about it with Tim, because who wants to say, hey, yeah, check out how much I am sucking at every part of my life including being a good wife; aren't you thrilled you married me?
Dude. You know what this sounds like? EVIL LYING DEPRESSION BEAST! Don't believe it, it lies to you!!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I don't know. I'm objectively sucking right now and don't know how to pull out of it. And if I talk about it, with Tim or anyone, it has to start with a discussion about how much I'm sucking and the ways in which I'm sucking, and I don't want to have that conversation because it's shameful. So a lot of it is my stupid pride, I get that. And it's not helping me, I also get that.
It doesn't help that a friend told me, unsolicited (I'm paraphrasing here), "Yup, this is basically what your life is going to be from now on." She's not a psychic or a life coach so her "advice" (such as it is) is suspect. But it really didn't help.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
much ~ma for those who are having a hard time right now.
I love dreams. They are so straightforward sometimes.
