Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

[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

My seven years of retail experience have taught me how to diffuse difficult...

I think you want "defuse," not "diffuse."

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

quit being possible to wear to work when I started having to clamber around the computer lab daily.

Yup. Every time I try to wear a dramatic flowy skirt to work, I end up tripping over it when I have to climb behind the equipment racks and then I remember why I don't wear dramatic flowy skirts to work.

And a hearty YES to the world needing more hats.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

But I'm a very youthful 34! Everyone thinks so!

OK, the fact that you're feeling so old at that age (and not saying it in reference to hanging out at a college or high school) scares me. Eek!

I want pretty pretty old dresses, but I know I'd never wear them so I'm not willing to spend the money. Sigh.

The bathroom was where it was suggested I pump when I came back from maternity leave. I promptly asked my boss if she was going to bring her lunch into the adjoining stall and eat there with me

Go Aimee!

I like ita's idea of a website where you put in your measurements and it tells you what historical era to dress from. That'd be cool. Though really, what I look at is like, Rubens nudes, and go "OK, women with big hips, fleshy bellies, and small boobs. Yup, I could be one of those...". I'd rather look good in those awesome 30s suits though...

I, too, want the antique red dress! So cute!!

I think what I want, secretly, is the life -- or part of it -- that comes with a Victorian day dress. Like, afternoon calls. And being driven somewhere in a carriage. And having a big late afternoon tea. And, you know, a maid

Sounds good to me, where do I sign up?

My seven years of retail experience have taught me how to diffuse difficult.

Um...defuse. Defuse. Like defusing a bomb.

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

Heh. And everyone throws themselves on the bomb.

It's a good letter, Aimee, with the suggested changes it'll be even better. I hope you get it.

Damned browser. I think that's my cue to go to bed.

Wow. Want.

It's even in my size. My bank account is very thankful that it's already sold.

This is not even remotely in my size, but I want it anyway, because it's gorgeous.

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

Woohoo, and lots of VCC-ma for Jilli.

I love hats, on other people, but I can't wear them myself.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

even with the shorter hair? I would think you could now. a smaller higher hat...

Nope. They just don't work for me.
