I just ordered my dad ST:TNG season 6 for Father's Day because he called me geeking out about "Chain of Command."
THERE. ARE. FOUR! LIGHTS!
Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

[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.

Keep your resolve, Nora!

ita, we are trying to find a way to see it maybe this weekend. I'd be happy to have you join us if it works out.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Print out the email and write your rebuttal, Nora, point by point. Write out your argument, if you haven't done so. You don't have to do more than make a list of your points, really, but it will help to have them down and concrete.
I tend to stammer and clutch when I have a face to face meeting, or any sort of confrontation. So it always helps me to write down my points and write out a rough guide of what I want to say, and practice saying it. I also imagine varying responses, and my rebuttals to those. I practice deliberately keeping my voice lower to keep it from squeaking, taking deeper breaths, and speaking slower. It helps me to be prepared and not so jittery that I lose what I was going to say and just clam up in overwhelm.
I am not you, of course, and if this won't work for you, please disregard it. I only mention it in case it might help.

All is well that ends in pizza.
