Spike's Bitches 23: We've mastered the power of positive giving up.  

[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.

Thrive to spite them

I went to church today and almost didn't survive the Letah Cuteness Bomb that was the elementery age choir signing "The Butterfly Song".

For those of you who don't know this song the lyrics (in part) are:

If I were a butterfly, I’d thank you Lord for giving me wings
If I were a robin in a tree, I’d thank you Lord that I could sing
If I were a fish in the sea, I’d wiggle my tail and I’d giggle with glee
But I just thank you father for making me, me

For you gave me a heart and you gave me a smile
You gave me Jesus and you made me your child
And I just thank you Father for making me, me

Other animals listed are: octopus, fuzzy wuzzy bear, wiggly worm, elephant, kangaroo, and crocodile. There are hand motions and various things as well.

It was extremely cute and sweet and there was one little boy who was totally hamming it up.

Well, it's a wee bit small and long for me, and I don't have eight hundred dollars for it. But it is nice!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Emmett just assembled his Going To Children's Fairyland outfit
So. Sweet.

Great dress. I don't know why either, but it is lovely.

Puppycat is curled next to me and bathing. She's rather cute. And wiggly.

eta: A friend wants to go to the Carlsbad Street Fair today. Am I rotten for waiting for her to call me first so I can finish my laundry, watch a movie and chat online?

Mostly lurking...

My great plan of avoiding school work by doing dishes has been thwarted. Emily thinks she needs a shower. Silly girl! I mean, really? What's more important? Clean dishes or clean humans?

I'm voting for clean laundry actually.

Alternately, you could determine whether Emily or the dishes are dirtier and choose from that.

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

But more than just sitting quietly, she said they need to learn to "cope with boredom" by sitting and doing nothing.

I never learned to cope with boredom. That's why I carry something to read with me at all times.

Nora, I'm sorry you're friend took out her unhappiness on you. I've had the same feelings as she had, but it never occurred to me to yell at the happy person.

I once had to write a number of articles quoting an annoying person named Rhett. Spellcheck kept suggesting "rat." I never added Rhett to my dictionary because I enjoyed having him called rat.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Carlsbad Street Fair

I'm jealous! Today I will go to the mall and get my Mother's Day gift (a Tonka Bean candle, which is awesome). I may BBQ tonight. Later will be The L Word. All in all, a pretty good day.

Happy Birthday, Eddie! May it be a Bitchin' one, too! Whatever your definition of Bitches is.

It...meanders around, smelling the coffee in one spot, naming a rose in another. But, most of all, it is a very nurturing place to be. It's where you go when you have a boo-boo that needs fixing, when you've climbed Mt. Everest and want to shout from the summit, you come here. We give hugs and hairpats, throw glitter and glee about with abandon. And, we give pedicures. Not that it can't happen in Natter, but here, we do it in Bitch Style.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Mother nature is being a bitch today.

We should not have freezing rain/sleet/snow in Minnesota on May 1st.

Good thing I looked outside before going out to put clothes on the line.

Especially wearing only jogging shorts and flip flops.

Me and you, Daniel. Snow just isn't supposed to happen in May. It happened/is happening. Ugh.
