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

Wow, im not even getting the cards I ordered until like Tuesday, I definitely won't be sending them until closer to New Years! But they are New Years cards, so...

The box thing is ridiculous. One store had run out of boxes on the 14th and wasn't ordering more. Another store had a bullshit sign saying that they were going "green" and weren't offering boxes this year. How about passing some of those savings along, hm?

I designed my own cards this year. Just have to print them out. And then find time to get stamps. These will probably arrive closer to New Year's, but it's all part of the season, right?

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

Old Christmas is Jan. 7th, or 8th, or something. H's folks weren't orthodox but we fudged and used "Old Christmas" as an excuse on occasion. Most folks are glad to hear or get a present off-schedule, I think.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Pretty sure it's explicitly in the exchange rules that New Years still counts. WE ARE NOT LATE. (And if I'm misremembering, well, that's still my story and I'm sticking to it.)

Jan 7, Bev. My Dad's family was very Russian Orthodox and my mother found Russian Xmas (as we called it) being after Epiphany/Twelfth Night very confusing! Did make it easy to decide when to see which grandparents over the holidays.

We leave our tree up until "Little Christmas" as my family called it, which is January 6th.

Thrive to spite them

I had to go home today because I got super over heated. Dizzy, flushed dry skin, I stopped sweating, had nausea, etc. my body temp didn't get up there but it's been an hour and my skin is still hot but I feel cold. I also started crying which was embarrassing. Today was not my day. And there was another fucking visit today the store manager's boss or boss's boss. Why for the love of god why??

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

ugh askye that sucks. I hope you're feeling better today.

I was incredibly lucky to get scheduled one day in the middle of three off days and a friend picked up for me so I got a much needed mini vacation.
