Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!  

[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.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

But it does mean the hummus is MINE, ALL MINE!!!!

Yup. He said we could try hummus again in a few months, and though it's probably the chickpeas that did it, we should avoid giving her olive oil or garlic for a day or two, too, and watch her carefully next time we do. Which means she can't have the leftover chicken thighs.

Visited another daycare this a.m. It's a good $200/month cheaper than the first place we looked at, and I liked it better. Less chi-chi and touchy-feely, but bigger classrooms for the same number of children, a bigger playground, and they feed the kids breakfast, lunch, and a snack (the other place fed snacks, but the kids are supposed to breakfast at home and bring a sack lunch). They teach Spanish starting from preschool and generally focus on school readiness. They even have space in the toddler room as of now, though who knows if that'll be the case once I get a job.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

In five minutes I leave to pick up, among other things, carrot cake.

This pleases me greatly.

(because being able to make them dance at my whim would be really cool)

I think if I asked my manager just right, he'd do a wee jig for me. Of course, I'd have to bring him Krispy Kreme donuts for the following week.

Might be worth it.

Silence means security silence means approval

My student worker is quitting. Doesn't surprise me; she's bored and one of her profs had an open lab space.

Any of you UW students in the market for $9/hour?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

(Do you think that would work on people here in the office?)

Only one way to find out!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Hmmm.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Why aren't people entertaining me?

Ahem. Trying to arrange Hallowe'en's F2F over here! Also, please to let me know which tat you are thinking of, so that I may check and see which of the artists that will be working that day will be best for you. This is not urgent, but hopefully entertaining.

Okay, Juliana is official excused from other forms of entertainment.

I will think about the tats when I get home. I could send you my top few choices if you want, in case some of them get a negative response.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Favorite trashy (country) song titles:

"For the Tears I've Cried Have Washed 'I Love You' from the Blackboard of my Heart"

and the unforgettable "Drop Kick Me Jesus Through those Goal Posts of Life"

I'm not making this up, you know.
