Proud, sj. Proud.
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

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

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Proud indeed!

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.
It turns out I was right to reframe the message of the dream as "it's not time to give up". Harvey's kidney values were very similar to what they were 2 years ago, so no major progression on the kidney failure. Suggestion for pain control was to divide his dose of gabapentin in two, to see if that evens out his pain levels, and let the vet know what the results are next week. If this does not improve his pain control, we will talk about next steps then.

Herding cats for fun
You can have a little more time with Harvey then. May those days be full of comfort for you and your wise old cat.

We were ... required, I think ... to get engraved calling cards (with just our full names) when I graduated from high school. I think I still have (somewhere) just about all of them.
And I think you can get sheets of blank cards from various places - you could get matching cards and stationery! I'll see if I can find a source ....
edited to add: aha! I found these and I know there are other sources.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
After graduation, my high school gave each of the girls a little box of calling cards. Sadly, by that point, I wasn't using my first name anymore, so they were of no use to me.
Toddson, those are pretty! I think I'm going with sj's suggestion of Victorian Trading Company, though. They have exactly what I want. I've also found a few other things I want... of course.
My ankle is really hurting a lot today. I took half a Percocet last night to try to sleep and it didn't work, I was awake most of the night. This morning I took a whole one, with trepidation, and yes, now I'm a zombie. And my ankle *still* hurts. Not as bad, though.
On the upside, it's a lovely rainy day, and I have coffee and brownies.
edit to correct the name of the person I was talking to *facepalm*

I hadn't thought of the Victorian Trading Company!

All my class got those engraved cards, they were meant to be inserted into the generic graduation announcements instead of having to have all the announcements personalized.

Our whole senior high school class was required to order "calling" cards, printed (or engraved, oooh) with our first, middle, last name, to go in graduation invitations. We had our choice of card stock, ivory or white, paneled or not, and font, to match our chosen style of invitations. And we could order a minimum of both, or extra cards, presumably for all those afternoon calls we'd be making. Leaving them or mailing them with resumes was suggested, but in that case having address and phone number on them would have been good. We exchanged them "to remember each other" by.
ETA: or sorta What Connie Said.

Huh. I never knew that was what they were for. Maybe our whole class got them, then. If "I" sent out graduation announcements, my mom did it!
There's a lot of stuff I just don't remember. I'm always amazed by people who remember details about their school days. Even when it was happening, I didn't care! Such a bad attitude.
