'Objects In Space'
[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.
My therapy involves lingering problems with my dad, about how he left when I was 3, and wad never able to express anything but disapproval about me. I never did anything right, and always screwed everything up.
In so many ways, I am still frozen in time as an abandoned 3 year old.
I'm still angry at him for being angry at me for not being born a professor of education with a PhD.
is that what he is?
Yes. Or, he was when i was born, and for my school and teenage years, before he left to become the head researcher for a private tech firm.
hmmph, well from my limited knowledge, those particular titles/achievements do not make one a necessarily thoughtful and caring person, so you can do much better. I SAY SO, IT IS SO!
Thanks, msbelle. You're still the best!
And yes, I *love* the breaks from real emergencies for bizzarre requests
Heh. As I posted on FB earlier, I have the local police on my twitter feed, and they post about all the incidents. Someone (unclear if the SAME someone or different someones!) called at 2PM, 3PM, 5PM and 4AM about a "suspicious person" hanging out in the 1-2 block radius of my house. I don't know if there's one SUPER sketchy person being called about by multiple people, if it's a dispute, if it's one paranoid person calling about lots of folks, or if there's LOTS of sketchy people wandering around, suddenly!
(ETA: Also, hugs, hairpats, warm fuzzy blankets, and yay surgery done!)
It's not at all uncommon for the same person to call about the same 'suspicous' situation every hour on the hour and try to make it sound like they haven't already called 4 times on the same non issue that the first responding officer found not at all suspicious. I'm also constantly shocked at how many people call 911 for a 'suspicious person' and the only thing suspicious about that person is the color of their skin. Because of course anyone with dark skin MUST be a drug dealer or Up To No Good. *sigh* Makes me really sad, and I do give an awful lot of lectures along the lines of "being homosexual does not equal being a pedophile" and "having dark skin does not make someone a drug dealer".
The shifting demographics in my neighborhood have made Hispanic folks less suspicious to the righteous white folks, but God help the black person walking down the sidewalk by himself.
I'm home! They let us go right in time for rush hour traffic. TCG is making me Trader Joe's mac & cheese and a cuppa for dinner.
