Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

Spike's Bitches 25 to Life  

[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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I think they have, sj.

Dana, Heather, t, and their famalies are all accounted for.

Do we have anyone else?

Have all the buffistas who were in the path of Katrina checked in?

And relatives too, mostly.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I'm earwormed...so I wrote up this tribute to New Orleans.

New Orleans
Apologies to Donovan

The city of New Orleans was a great city
Which lay before a great storm and flood
Along the sea we call the Gulf of Mexico.
So great an area of culture, that all
Those beautiful people sang their hearts out
To the South and the North Americas with ease,
And danced with painted clothes.

The great Cajun age is but a remnant of The Nawlins culture.
The Creole kings colonised the world
Many gods who play in the mythological dramas
In legends from all lands were from fair New Orleans.

Knowing her fate, New Orleans sent out refugees to all corners of the Earth.
The poets, the physicians, the farmers, the scientists,
The magicians and the musical gods of our legends.

Let us rejoice and let us sing and dance and celebrate the city.

Hail New Orleans!

Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be...

I think so. Let me go double check.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I've forgotten who all needs the job-ma so I'm sending it out generalized.

And daycare-ma for Susan, too.

If I'm going to stick to my new schedule, I'm going to have to go to bed soon.

Poptarts:

Yes, meara, we got two fabulous looking cookie recipes from you. Thank you!

Tonight I had my weekly date with George. George is the 10-week-old son of the leader of our crochet/knitting group. He is SUCH a little precious. I swear I go more to see George than the other women. I mean, they're all nice and all, but he is just a sweetie pie.

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

I just threadsucked all of today's messages and will go back and read in a moment, but ... I'm a sore, sore kitten today.

First day back at work and even though I was very careful, I am feeling it. There is the lying on ice packs currently, complete with take-out Mexican taco shop food.

I had a temp at work plaster the side of my back with those icy-hot sticky things midday after I was just wincing. There is possibly a sexual harassment violation in there somewhere, but I did ask clearly first and she knew in advance there would be a bit of bra viewage. It's just in a place that I can't reach, much less with sticky bits.

Also, and this was great, my boss who had been basically a bitca on Friday said I looked a little sore today when she got in at 1 today and told me that if I needed to work half days for the rest of the week, she was good with it. I'm going to try and work full days but it's nice to know I *can* leave early if I need to.

Back to read up on the Bitches' day...
