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.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

You have my sympathies, sj. Does she usually go to bed without much fuss? If so, then most likely this is just a phase and she'll return to her usual equilibrium eventually. In the meantime, though, I'm sorry you're both having a rough time.

She's usually fairly chill. She doesn't always go right to sleep but she'll sing and talk to herself until she does. Unless she has a diaper and then she'll call for daddy. Tonight she is screaming like someone is trying to kill her. TCG just got home and is trying to put her down now. He usually does bedtime. So, maybe it will help.

She seems to be sleeping. Apparently the problem was lack of daddy.

Glad she is sleeping now!

Our wings are not tired.

Awww, my boys alternated Mommy only and Daddy only modes. It was odd for both of us.

Daddy always does bedtime. It's his time with her after a long day at work, but usually she's okay when he's not here. She is doing her usual bedtime tossing and turning now, but she's not screaming.

Whinetown: I have to drive my neighbor to San Francisco Kaiser at godawful o'clock tomorrow. Then I get to wait 4 to 5 hours. Pre surgery tests; the procedure will be Tuesday.

I am a terrible person because I am sitting here feeling really sorry for myself. I totally don't want to do this again. It's too hot and too far away and too boring to wait around. Waaaaa, I hate hospitals sooooo much.

Ugh, KB that does sound miserable. Do you have a good book to bring to pass the time?

Oh yes, always with the book, that's me. I'm cranky after a week of record heat is all. Sweltering is not my favorite thing.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

My stomach is upset and the nearest carb was a blueberry bagel.

Now I'm upset.
