Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

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.

If they're too small can't you get an extender for the clasp (assuming it's a back clasp)?

It's not the bands (yet) it's the cups. But I'll keep that in mind.

Susan gossiping by proxy is making me giggle.

All this bra talk is making me want to go to Lane Bryant and spend a few hours trying on bras. Well, okay, not want to spend the few hours, but I've learned the hard way that I *have* to try on a bra before I buy it. Not to mention I'm betting Lane Bryant doesn't have the amazingly helpful alterations lady who will put teeny-tiny darts in the bras you're purchasing to make sure they fit you perfectly. I think the alterations lady only lives at Nordstrom.

(Yes, I'm trying to distract myself from the work that has to be finished by tomorrow. Don't wanna edit things right now!)

Though I still think the universe needs to back the hell off of all of us.

Yes. Whys does the universe not understand? We keep telling it.

And now I want a Nordstrom.

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

vw, a multitude of felicitations on finishing your third incomplete! Soon we'll hear about your nefarious plans to take over the world, to which we shall say, "Ah! We knew her when...."

I could use you too, if Emily is willing to let you go. Me != morning person.

And now I want a Nordstrom.

I luuurve Nordstrom's. Neiman Marcus too. My wallet, OTOH, NSM.

Always Anti-fascist!

Ah, "Needless Markup."(I say it that way because the first time I ever went it was with my drag queen attendant and he called it that.) So now it is Needless Markup forever for me.

Depends. Do you live someplace warm? Are there nice people? Will you keep her in better than the style to which she is accustomed? Are there babies? I gotta look out for the v-ster.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I normally go to Nordstrom for bras, but I'm going to wait until I get to my goal weight, as a way of telling myself that I really am sticking to the diet this time.* Until I get to where I want to be, jeans are coming from Costco and Value Village, and bras come from places where they're under $50 a pop.

*Despite the fact my lunch today was a chicken bacon club, fries, and non-diet soda from Kidd Valley. Um. So I have cravings sometimes.

Hmm. DH did a little investigating, and it sounds like one of the vacancies is actually a brand new position, but that there has indeed been much shuffling, probably at least partially motivated by FB avoidance.

And now I want a chicken club. I am way too suggestible.

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

~ma for your dad, Brenda.

-t has a new tag. She has displayed it numerous times today, so there is no need for her to freak out.

JZ has a new tag. This may be the third tag in as many days.

beathen has a new tag. It almost slipped by me, because it's about the same length as her previous one, and it still has the Serenity countdown.

Erika has a new tag. Another Otis Redding lyric.

Can I write my thesis on people's tags? That would be way more fun. Although MinK and MiRPs are fun. Just say it: MiRP!

Oh, crap, I haven't expanded the tetramerization paragraph yet. Bollocks. I will never sleep again.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Brenda, if you're not happy with the answers you get about your Dad, I have a friend who manages a practice that just does knee and hip replacements, and she might have some ideas.

I am going through a software tutorial. You would think that they would say somewhere, like on the box or the website, that the movies will only run at a specific resolution. No, you have to call. This is after I did the stuff they did recommend, like reloading Quicktime. Aaargh.

I'm so sorry about your car, Maria. Were you hit hard enough to be sore today?

And vw rules. Three down and one to go! She could come here and make my breakfast and tell me to work. It's usually warm here. It's very pretty in the spring. There are no babies, though.

I have no coffeemaker suggestions because my main coffeemaker is a Black & Decker undercounter model that has lived a freakishly long time. (Knocks wood.) It has a timer, which was a wonderful feature when I actually had to leave the house to work.
