I've got two words that are going to make all the pain go away. Miniature Golf.

Mayor ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'


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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

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

At least Splenda is basically sugar. Aspartame is gnasty stuff. Then again, I hit my too-sweet button pretty quickly (as in most milk chocolates are too sweet for me), so can't necessarily be trusted.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

The first girl I ever fell in love with just told me she's engaged, and my first reaction was "Oh! How cool. Congrats." Instead of the sound of my heart shattering into a thousand pieces like they always say it is. Go me. Being over people rocks.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Hi-fives to P-C.

Thanks, Lilty. I mean, I guess it helps that it was totally unrequited and we were never anything more than friends. But still. It sure was a Big Deal for a while.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

The reason I wanted an ice cream maker - because I Know I can reduce the sugar after a little experimentation , without resorting to artifical sweetners. I am glad splenda exsists -- but the minute I found out I had diabetes, I started scurtinizing the sweetners in things - and found it was easy to ratch up the flavor ( ginger, cinnamon, clove, cardamon, citrus rind) so that the sugar wasn't missed. If I have fresh berries - I don't need syrup for pancakes. and If I do use syrup - pure maple - more flavor.

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

Splenda still tastes like slick ass to me. Basically sugar, but not sugar enough. I'd rather something oversugared than at all Splendaed. It's an instant headache.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm like a lab rat with the artificial sweetener. Diet coke--lots. Splenda, mounds of it in my tea and on my Cheerios.

You can have my sweet tooth when my dentist pulls it from my cold, dead mouth. Or probably sooner.

Well, since I don't really have the choice - over sugared will 1) put me to sleep and 2) cause nerve damgae - I had to retrain the taste buds. While I don't love any artifical sweetners, splenda will do in things like diet soda, since soda is such an artifical flavor anyway. other things - I make myself if possible - so I know what sugar is in them.
