That shit was positively Whedonesque.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

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

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm currently wary of anything in the shape of a retreat because last time we had one--OK, it was on-site, but a long meeting with an outside facilitator to deal with team-building issues--it turned out to be a bait and switch to get someone fired.
But I've yet to go on a work-related retreat that I didn't at least dislike. I don't like enforced team-building and the whole rah-rah cheerleading attitude where I'm supposed to get all glowy-eyed and embrace the mission. I actually like my current organization's mission and am happy to support it, but I don't want to embrace it as such, because this is my JOB, not my LIFE. So attempts to make me a good little team drone just anger me.

Oh I also love the name Clara but GF quickly axed it. It's so cute!

I just... I still don't understand it. I really, really though they deserved a happy ending. I was crying like a little girl.

The status is NOT quo.
I'm home today. I broke down and got a doctor's appointment for this afternoon. It's probably a virus, but I should at least have her listen to my lungs and rule out infection.

Ooh, I like Clara.
ION, I think I'm having anxiety dreams about my mom dying. Normally I don't even remember my dreams. But two nights ago I dreamed I was house-sitting by myself in my childhood home, waiting for my mom to return. She never did, and the house started to flood--water running across the floor and pouring from the ceiling. And last night I dreamed that Annabel and I were in my childhood home, just the two of us, and I was about to go away, flying somewhere, and leave her by herself. I was packing, and I took one of her stuffed animals. She protested, and I told her she didn't need Pablo when I was leaving her Pinky, Waffle, and Costco (yes, she really has a stuffed horse she calls Waffle and a lion named Costco--don't ask me why). I'm kinda appalled at my subconscious on that one...

I like Clara too. My imaginary girls names are Beatrix and Emily. And also in my imagination, DH doesn't get a vote because he doesn't have to push them out of his vagina.

Somebody has to use Clara. It's adorable. I mourned the loss for a few days as I really love it. Damned compromises!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
yes, she really has a stuffed horse she calls Waffle and a lion named Costco--don't ask me why
That's awesome.
