I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

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.

Good heavens, I needed some good news. The rush of happiness and relief on your behalf was intense.

Awww. You guys!

F2F Sydney, anyone?

On the one hand, oh hello there. On the other hand, Australia has HOLY SHIT giant jillifonts.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

F2F Melbourne! (I'm pretty sure from recent discussion that both Ohio and the PNW have my corner of the world beat for large house-dwelling jillifonts.)

Wait, I thought that Huntsman jillifonts merrily went wherever they damn well pleased?

In other good news (at least for me): tomorrow I leave for Colorado for five days to visit one of my chosen family, Kambriel.

They do! But they're not really so common around here. I've only seen one in the house a couple of times in the last nine years. (I tended to see more and bigger ones growing up in Canberra, though I don't know if that's regional or just a general decline in arthropod life.)

I promise to be the Official Jillyfont Smusher of the Sydney F2F. No Jillifont too small or large!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Ugh. I tripped over some junk on the floor, and now everything hurts.

Guess I should clean, except, well, everything hurts. I can clean at least a few things, though.

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.

I hope your pain eases soon, Hil.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Why are my neighbors setting off fireworks at 1:30 in the morning? Is this a holiday I don't know about?

I know Kat is with me on this but I think some others have been through it as well—I'm having to give myself lovenox shots twice daily. And they're about as easy as I can imagine self-injected shots to be, but I still super hate it. And have teeny tiny round bruises in the places I've injected, so soon my belly will look super weird?

Also, super tmi but they made me take a lot of meds to prevent constipation, because opioids, and to be fair, I hadn't pooped in days. But maybe overboard with two medications and a bunch of prunes because this afternoon I was suddenly like "whooo gotta go!" And glad my knee scooter is speedy!

...yay, recovery? Tomorrow, dealing with bureaucracy. Hoping to time it so I'm in the right space of pain meds where I'm not in pain, but I'm also not nodding off and out of focus...there's generally an hour Or maybe two, in each dose.

Our wings are not tired.

Having to deal with bureaucracy when you are in pain is the worst. Even worse than opioid induced constipation. Talk to them when lucid and save the loopy discussions for Buffistas!
