Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath  

[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 feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Happy Valentine's day everyone!

Happy Anniversary, Deena and Greg!

I'm glad your mom is doing well, Cashmere.

I can't believe how lucky Mom is. It was her bronchitis that caused the chest pains that led to them testing her heart. Her surgeon told us today that the location and the size of the blockage in the main artery would have made any heart attack "an unsurvivable event". So she wouldn't have gotten an easier warning sign. Those words give me chills. But all is well and she should be MUCH MUCH better now.

The same thing happened to my mom. When she first semi-retired, she took the time to do things like go to the urologist to see if he could figure out why she was getting so many UTIs. They never did figure that one out, but they found a cancerous tumor that at that moment was still contained completely within one kidney, but had already gotten pretty large and spready.

Also, it's been a long ass day, but a good one, and I am home, and waiting for pizza.

If I only had a brain...

Meara, I found an online article about Vesta Tilley. Did you know about her? She was an early drag king --her stage act was being a guy. She patronized the best tailors in London.

Always Anti-fascist!

Wow, I can't imagine thinking "Thank Heavens for those bladder infections." But I bet she is. My phone isn't having a dial tone right now, but the other line works.I thought this was a calm day! Wonder how long it's been out.

Oooh. Have never heard of her--can you link??

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

Oy. That was one butt ugly supernasty rainy day commute. Left the office at 5pm - got home with Emmett at 8:15.

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

Gah. After a certain hour, I lose the ability to concentrate on all this potassium channel business. I can't form coherent sentences. I get a couple good hours of work done in the morning, and then it feels like I don't get anywhere. Gah. Gah gah gah. Why can't I do this?

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

Why can't I do this?

Because it's after a certain hour.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If I get tired or I go too long without food, I can't concentrate on programming. Sometimes going for a walk helps. It's bad to be on your ass for great lengths of time.

eta:

Because it's after a certain hour.

Gotta watch out for those certain hours.

Certain hours and certain women.

I feel a hard-boiled detective story coming on. It's a noirish kind of night.
