You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

[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.

I like "White Fang" because it has a happy ending, and I love the whole part of White Fang in California. Especially the part where his master gives him permission to take off after the dogs that have been tormenting him.

I'm shallow.

Hubby had his spine looked at today. Looks like more surgery, as one of the disks is definitely blown and is causing the grief in his legs. Sigh. If we can get it done quickly, he could be back in shape by spring. Just in time for heart attack season, but we think we've got a lock on that due to the drug interactions. But I'm trying not even to think things like "The worst is behind us" and all that, because I can think of shitloads of worse things.

In both Tom Sawyer and White Fang, you're talking about the tension between license and civilization that was a common theme as Americans saw the end of the frontier.

All is well that ends in pizza.

It's annoying to have to get professors to say things that I already fucking know, just to make it sound more like news. Stupid journalism.

Welcome to one of the reasons I had trouble with Journalism when I was young and arrogant.

But now I'm older and arrogant, and wish I had had the self-esteem to at least fricken keep applying for work in journalism until I got a position *somewhere.*

I could be a burnt-out cynic scoffing at my degree right now.

Oh wait.

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.

Well, the good news is, there's no essay. The bad news is..... if Jen's right, I'm going to hate filling it out worse than I would hate writing an essay.

What are the chances they've got an online app? I'm going to go look.

Here you go, Sean, you lazy bastard.

Obviously you don't have any friends in a 12-step program, 'cuz then you'd know what an enabler is.
