I entered my 4th decade over 12 years ago
22 years ago, to be accurate.
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Steph, I've been thinking about your brother a lot and just sending good thoughts and vibes his way and yours.
I know he's got a really strong support system with you and his wife.
One of Mom's best friends is a recovering alcoholic and it's been 4 or 5 years since she started recovery and she goes to AA meetings every day. For awhile she was going 2x a day. She's said that was huge helping her stay sober and accountable. I know AA isn't for everyone but I hope your brother can find a support system that will work for him like that.

Is he a reader, Teppy? I have an excess of books on dead trees.
I have a theme song. It's Springsteen's "One Step Up."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
How are you feeling these days, Ginger? And where are you treatment-wise? Feel free to NOT answer these questions if you just don't feel like talking about it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Some of my friends are trying to convince me to go camping with them in North Carolina for a long weekend this summer. I've never been camping before. I'm uncertain about this.

I have Scrappy's questions too, but I haven't wanted to bother you Ginger. Scrappy gave me the opening to express my thoughts, but I echo: don't bother to answer if you don't want to.
'ma, hugs, hairpats as appropriate.
