Spike's Bitches 21 Gunn Salute  

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

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

One of my favorite memories of early childhood is sliding, bumpity-bump-bump, down the stairs on purpsose.

Me too!

Anyone ever been audited by the IRS?

Oh, Maria! I've never been audited, but my dad has--several times. From the way he talks about it, it's more nuisance than nightmare.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Maria! I just audited a girl named Maria! And nothing in her files, matches her refund wiles, at allllllll!

If I only had a brain...

Hooray for the bumping down the stairs.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Eeeek, Maria! Jeez!

I said much the same thing when I pulled the envelope out of the mailbox. Except there were a few more epithets and tears. The IRS certainly knows how to wish someone happy holidays. Pbfft.

From the way he talks about it, it's more nuisance than nightmare.

That's what my CPA tells me, too. The problem is I am the world's worst keeper of records, so pulling together information for all of 2002 is going to be a nightmare.

Good luck with the move, and I shall miss having you within driving distance!

Edited to bwah! and mwah! at Hec. Giggles are good.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Pulling to standing is so cute. I can still remember Franny pulling herself up on everything imaginable, including knees.

Early walker, I bet.

Or not. You said the same thing when Frances pulled herself up at 8 months, and yet she started walking about a week after her first birthday.

Thank you! I'll have to make sure to get together with the DCistas before I leave. Also, I'll be returning for visits from time to time.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

go annabel!

ack, Maria!

so I had a list of things I was going to do last night while waiting for Matt to get home. However, he came into SJ airport and we had to go to Oakland to get the other car, so I didn't do anything on my list. This does not explain why nothing got done this am.

I'm full of lies and misinformation apparently. Or rather refer too often to my parental sample size of one.

I think we all do that. It's like all the people who tell me that girls are so mellow. Clearly these aren't people who have watched my little girl in action.

Goody. We need our USRDA of Anne.

Simple. Newton's First Law of Motion. It provides a reasonable explanation for many things.
