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.

She's big on the tubers.

You've been *waiting* to say that, haven't you?

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

The question is...yams or fingerlings?

It's not the size of your tuber; it's how you serve it.

(Not mashed, one would hope.)

What? No. No. No.

Yes.

That's a bit personal, don't you think?

Eh. Tubers are mostly starch, no?

So, um, yeah. Veggies at lunch, and strawberries at dinner! Lots of fiber in that popcorn! Had some milk with the brownie, that's calcium! I'm practically healthy, y'all!

Or, I'm doing laundry *right now* so that I can have something to wear to the gym tomorrow.

You're the one who said she liked carrots. We're just trying to determine if she's a nibbler through a bag of baby carrots, or somebody who prefers a hearty, organic root vegetable that could really flavor a stock.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I realized today that my whole careful schedule for this week is going to totally fall apart. There is no way I can finish my homework on time, and very possibly no way I'll finish grading on time, either.

However, I have done an exercise video, and dinner was brocolli rabe and couscous. So at least something is under control.

I'm practically healthy, y'all!

My reasoning for the past few days has been the "I ate a salad for lunch, so now I can have cookies" type. Probably not the healthiest thing in the world.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Not touching Sean's carrots. Take that any way you please.

Strawberries are great - lots of Vitamin C and excellent for keepin' ya regular.

And you can cover them in chocolate!

Yeah, but you can cover Sean in chocolate, and that still doesn't make him nutritious. Sure he's a nummy treat, but...

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

Ha! You guys make me laugh. Let me give a little more context.

My mom had sent me some food. And then she was all, you know, if you're not going to cook, you should get someone to cook for you. I thought she meant a friend of some sort. Someone to live with you, and cook for you. It actually took me a few seconds before I realized what she was getting at.

"You know what I'm talking about, right? I'm talking about a wife."
"What did I say [about not bringing up this marriage shit]?"

Then she said she was only teasing, and I still had time.

Okay, I thought maybe putting it in context might make her come off better, but no. That is really what she said.
