Some folks insist on learning things the hard way, which tends to be harder on everyone around them too. Ugh. Fingers crossed that he can get himself to take advantage of it.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Our wings are not tired.
I really hope that he is on a better path now.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Hope that works out for him, Tep.

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.
May this be the beginning of having his shit together on a full-time basis.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I sure hope so. I'm still keeping myself adjacent to the fray, because I've taken care of too many addicts, and he is not my responsibility. (He's not really Tim's responsibility, either. But at this point, Tim's involvement is just occasional visits and phone calls. I have no problem with that.)

Good boundaries, Steph. You got this.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I support and applaud you in that strategy, Steph. Wise.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My hand surgery is tomorrow. I just had a bit of an "OMG! They're cutting my hand open!" freakout, but I posted in a local EDS group on Facebook and asked if anyone there had had hand surgery with this doctor (several people had), and I asked them to describe the whole procedure, like what happens when you get there and what they do before the surgery and what the room looks like and stuff, and being able to visualize it helped calm me down some. So, yay coping method!
Still kind of nervous, though.

Herding cats for fun
The hand surgery I had turned out to be not that big a deal as far as pain and recuperation time. Then I discovered I'd gotten lots of benefit and I've been very pleased that I screwed up my courage and went for it.
You'll be fine.
