flattop,

Who do you think has been kicking your ass all along?

I can't help it if I did it in such a way that you like it.

Write, dammit, write. Go back and review the PM I sent you in response to your song circle description, and then go back and review the Simple Heroes thread (refresh it and post something truthful there, dear friend *G*), and then tell me your ass ain't been kicked.

Oh, you mean it wasn't kicked ENOUGH. If that wasn't enough ass-kicking to get you going, then I would respectfully and lovingly inquire: "Well then, flattop, what is in the way of you moving toward your goal such that you need extreme ass-kickings?"

Don't you know that loving someone well is more of an ass-kicking than you could possibly have imagined, and that the effects may "kick in" (hahaha) more slowly but more powerfully than the usual painful approach?

Also ass-kicking is best, exchanged. Do some of it yourself if you want it back. You have to be creative about it if you want results, though. (Remember when we discovered that what I needed was to be NOT pushed? When you stopped pushing that time, it was an outstanding ass-whupping.) Go figure on that for awhile!

Your loving friend and partner in ass-kicking,

~Susan
