Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Aargh. Nigel head of the theatre wants to know if I am better and wants to meet. I basically want to just throw him off a roof. I really just wanted to try a month with no theatre to see how it felt. Can I tell him to fuck off, politely, until December?

Our wings are not tired.

I am noting all of that!

Also, gotta vent: they failed to perform a successful lumbar puncture on me this evening after NINE ATTEMPTS. I think they were going to keep trying, but I had to put a stop to the utter bullshit insanity.

So tomorrow I get it done under x-ray.

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.

NINE?!? Oh, hell to the no.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh nooooo. Yikes.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Dammit, amyth, that's awful. Who are these people? Isn't there some grizzled OB/GYN veteran who's been doing spinals on people in labor since forever they can drag in?

Because books.

Seriously. Nine tries is way beyond okay. After two they should have called someone else in!

Sophia, tell him no! With glee!

So a reply like

Nigel, thank you for your concern. I can be available to meet after December 1st.

Would. Not be nutty? I honestly think I won't go back.

No, that would totally be fine.
