Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

[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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

PS. I drove my car to work today.

In first and second gear.

15 MPH-20 MPH

But I only work a mile away from home, so it wasn't all that bad.

Stupid transmission.

It's a beautiful day, the children are mostly behaving, my living room is half clean and I have books. That all seems like a really good reason to go hang out on the porch and read, doesn't it?

Sounds good to me.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Oh, Daniel, that sucks.

You guys are making me feel so loved. Thank you.

While I wait for the effing jump, I'd like to make a list of things I need/want:

  • New windows (soundproof to block traffic noise)
  • Bookshelf for orange room
  • Console table for behind couch
  • Rugs for bedroom
  • Stove/microwave
  • New closet doors (slatted kind, white for orange room, dark wood for all other rooms)
  • Remove light box from kitchen and replace with pot lights (also get some under-cabinet lighting)
  • Remodel both bathrooms (orange room bathroom first)

My, it's fun to dream...

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Reading on the porch sounds like an excellent plan, Deena.

Transmission~ma for you, Daniel. What a PITA!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I have work to do and don't want to do it. It's a beautiful day, the children are mostly behaving, my living room is half clean and I have books. That all seems like a really good reason to go hang out on the porch and read, doesn't it?

Absotively!

et agree with this

Transmission~ma for you, Daniel. What a PITA!

If it would make you feel any better I could tell the story of the time that the transmission in my automatic went out and the only working gear I had was reverse (and I was at a red light in a left turn lane at the time). Or I could skip it and just wish that the money-from-the-sky-fairy would smile on you and wave her magic wand...

Oooh, pretty. Can not the parentals help with deposit?

I've been talking lately about buying a house. GF is getting tense so I need to stop it. We will buy a house in the next 2-3 years.

If I only had a brain...

Oh, snert. I called to check if the HR department wants an exit interview.

Nope. They will E-mail a link to an exit survey.
