Seems like everyone's got a tale to tell.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.

[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.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Grandfather's update:

Renal failure, in a post-cancerous, CVAs, and heart-attack(s)y body. He's awake, recognize people yet not-really-there. The family decided to go with the DNR policy. Nobody's too sure if he's in pain. He's clearly in discomfort, but not sure about actual pain. Dad sounds OK, yet disturbed.

Now, my grandfather's also being known as having Lazarusian skills: after all, he's dying professionally since 89'(shit you not). To know that I'll feel better when I'll see him, even with the chance that this time, he will die, actually makes me feel bad. I realized that about 50% of the times I saw him the past 10 years, it was in hospitals. And some of the times I said goodbye.

I really need to do some things. Got statistics to solve, and actually other really fun stuff to read, but I can't really concentrate when I worry to things I shouldn't worry about, yet for some reason, can't help not to.

This is great.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm sorry, Shir. Much peace~ma to you and your family.

it's "inhumane" to leave her on Memorial Day

Was your mom or someone close to her in the armed forces?

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Gah, {{{shir}}} right back atcha. One would hope that he is pumped full of painkillers at this point, yes? My work with hospice care in the US made it seem that medical professionals are all for massive painkiller use in terminal patients, i can only hope that is true everywhere.

“Not dead yet!”

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Hi, Laga!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh, Shir. Peace to you and your family.

Seriously? I mean ... SERIOUSLY? Social skills?

I wonder whether this type of behavior is ignorance of social skills, or deliberate ignoring of them, taking advantage of other peoples good manners to be tormentingly rude for his own amusement?

I tend to assume the latter in such prolonged situations. Some people are clueless, and some people are just assclowns.

“Not dead yet!”

And once again, Teppy, FTW.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Steph! What can you tell me about Shadow Hair? Is it true that Cincinnati is being protected by superheroes?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Is it true that Cincinnati is being protected by superheroes?

Sure, there's also Johnny Fever, Venus Flytrap, and Big Guy to name a few...

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

erin, that's a horrible situation. I wish you dispatch situations like on The Unusuals instead.

Feels cooler today. Woot!
