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

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Thanks you guys! I feel a little silly in the face of the some of the Very Real Stuff some of you are dealing with and the world at large is going through, but it really is amazingly comforting to be able to be AT HOME in your home.

The comfort of being home can not be understated.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Just came home from my friend's production of The New Electric Ballroom, and Wednesday night I am going to Seattle to hear Itzhak Perlman. How is this my life?

Oh! I'd say it is the life you deserve.

Well, it seems the planners for the Tokyo Olympics are planning for every eventuality.

Thrive to spite them

Well fuck. My insurance is going to go up by $100/month because of my accident. I can't even see about SC insurance and how it will effect it because I still don't have the paperwork I need to get my car registered. I made another request this time they are sending it directly to the bank branch.

Instead of being $53/month my insurance will be $150/mth and my initial payment will be almost $300. And the billing date is changing. I don't know why.

So now in the first 2 weeks of the month I have to pay for my meds at almost full price,y biggest credit card bill and now the car insurance. pretty much my entire first pay check of the month will go to that

I will be looking at cheap car insurance

Well, it seems the planners for the Tokyo Olympics are planning for every eventuality.

Given that they distributed 110,000 condoms for the Winter Olympics I'd say that that was sound planning.

I guess they know how much sex happens. I assume you have a lot of people from all over the world and in close quarters and things happen.

....and I discovered my prescription went up so it's going to be about $60 more a month.

I've been looking at other job listings but they don't pay that much more or pay less than I make and no way to tell if the insurance would cost me more or less.

Yay, Epic!

That sucks, askye. I'm sorry.

Hi, friends! I am going a little bonkers waiting to hear if I got the job at that Huge Company in Seattle. (No, we won't be moving regardless.) I have such mixed feelings about it all, so we'll see what happens. This is the second time in the last 5-6 years I've been contacted by a recruiter via Linked.In and gone all the way through the process, including flying to Seattle for a full day of interviews (latest happened last Fri and supposedly I'll know something by the end of this week).

My youngest continues to be an Experience. Challenging, beautiful, angering, loving - it's a lot, y'all. I did (finally) start therapy several months back. I see his therapist, which somehow seems very fitting (she's a play therapist by trade). I love her, even though I cry every damn time I see her, even when there's nothing particularly upsetting happening. Shit. And she's out of the country until the end of the month and I'm already missing my sessions. Sigh.

Sorry for the novel. Just needed somewhere to put it and remembered my Buffista friends.
