Oh, Epic, that's a lot. The fact that you ARE plugging along is a testament to your strength.

Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I'm too used to dealing with people who say "I've got 16 gigawhatizts of RAM, that's what Best Buy told me to get, how can my hard drive not have enough room to install the program?"
Yeah, that's the better description in most cases. I'm terrible at explaining things because I try to be very accurate and end up just confusing people more than actually helping them understand.

Well, *I* went "Huh, that's cool" at your explanation.

Because books.
I really love the spiral metaphor -- never thought of it that way, and it's comforting. Also puts a better spin on "spiral" for me, which is usually downward, panic spiralling.
Epic, that's rough. Wishing you strength, and health for your mom.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Hi Amy! ::sticks out tongue::
Love to you, Epic.
Well, we all just got an extension for our business plans until Friday, but I'm still going to try and finish mine tonight. Too much other stuff to do.
Relatedly, what's a better gender-neutral term than craftsmanship?

Skill? Artistry?

Artistry? Artisanalty?

Artisan craft? Artisan would work, but I can't find the right form.

This. It's so hard. I'm sorry, Epic.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Thanks, guys. That means a lot. I would say more, but I'm also a hair-trigger weeper, especially when I'm stressed, and I'd rather not cry at my desk right now. But thanks.
