Calli has a new tag, and I am off to read my comics!
Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

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.

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

Learn to knit yourself, DH.
Hee! I once mentioned to Tom that I was thinking about trying knitting - a lot of my friends were into it - and he looked horrified. His mom is a crazy knitter (she said, looking at the giant box of handknit sweaters we will never wear) and he would be not so likely to encourage me in pursuits that we'd share. Like an anti-Oedipal thing. I think he's somewhat freaked I've started playing Scrabble, in that vein...
And also - HMOG, FLESH EATING BACTERIA!!! Freak out! Ptui! We will speak of this no more!
Went to work for 5 hours, felt like crap, came home, feel like crap again.

Poor Nora. Feel better. Do not contract Strep A.

I like cross-stitching, but tend to lose patience with it pretty quickly -- you put in two hours and it's, like, one inch of cloth. I've tried knitting a few times, but never felt drawn enough to it to learn properly. It doesn't seem like the sort of thing my fingers want to do.
I have the opposite husband from Susan, though. When I suggest I should get a crafty hobby, he gives me a "What, that again?" look and gently reminds me of the many crafty things I have expressed interest in and started but not finished.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

I have this problem sometimes too. Fortunately I have other projects I've completed hanging on the wall to motivate me to finish - that the end result is worth the time.

Because books.
Coloring is great therapy, as is playing with Play-Doh.
Play-Doh rocks. We used to Play-Doh nights with the boys and sit around making stuff for hours.
Have you tried Japanese Puzzles (or Tsunamis)?
No! Thanks for the link. I used to love these Altaire books as a kid, too -- they were just geometric designs you could color in. I don't know if you can find them anymore.
Gives AmyLiz the hairy eyeball.
What? Innocent whistling...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I got props.
Rightly so. That's funny. My high school teacher/mentor, Dave Arnett is a midwestern white guy. When his first class of students (mostly black) started to act up, he'd turn on 'em and say, "Child, please!" and his kids would crack up.

I loved smooshing it onto the Sunday comics, peeling it back and seeing the pictures backwards.

We used to do that with Silly Putty.

That sounds like Silly Putty. You can do that with Play-Doh?
