You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

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.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Steph, young lady, you do what you darned well want to. Except feel guilty about your decision. That is totally prohibited.

This. I'm glad you're taking care of yourself, Teppy. Cardiac-Dads are stressful.

Went in to Hubby's cardiologist yesterday to pick up some drugs for him. The receptionist said, by way of making sure she wasn't handing drugs to random strangers with the right name, "Oh, are you his daughter?" "No, I'm his wife." She gave me a funny look. Maybe now the receptionists think Lawrence Neil is my aging sugar daddy. I get that a lot, though, people thinking I'm in there to see my father. "But he's too young to have heart problems!" To which I have always resisted replying, "Oh, you mean the past five years have only been a particularly nasty hallucination? Cool!"

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

WTF?

I just got another call, from the job I interviewed for at UW, telling me the exact same thing--they liked me, I was a very strong candidate, but that someone else had slightly more pertinent experience.

Letters, people, letters. Sometimes less personal is good.

Seriously, is this the latest stupid HR trend? I've never before been rejected by phone, now it's twice in one afternoon?!

Did I kill it with my horror at the all-too-personal revelations of my not-quite-adequacy?

Always Anti-fascist!

Hec is not alone,Tep. He just took a shorter time to say it than me. But it would probably be good to think about something else.

Well, I'm glad (overall) that I cancelled on my friend, because I just need to be quiet tonight and not deal with 200 strangers. I'm watching Family Guy DVDs and craving Milk Duds, which I do not have.

What is even happening?

Damn. If you're not in your jammies already, I vote for going to get the Milk Duds.

Oh, we're voting on your life now, by the way. We took a vote on it.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

We took a vote on it.
Did I miss an announcement in Press?

I'm in a reasonable facsimile of jammies (boxer shorts and a white t-shirt w/no bra), and I really need to lay off the sugar. Plus they pull your fillings out of your teeth.

If I still want them tomorrow, I'll get them. Gotta get the fixings for a big pot of chili for a get-together on Sunday (my attendance hinging, of course, on how my Dad is).

Shiiiiit, man. I can't even get Natter named after me; I *know* y'all ain't voting on my life and times as told by me.
