Hivemind question for the pregnant and recently pregnant: I am looking for a Christmas gift for my cousin who is a few months along, and I want to get her something that is just for her, not for the baby. Is there something particular that you would have loved when you were pregnant?
Don't you just love this party? Everything's so fancy, and there's some kind of hot cheese over there.

Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.
[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.

Because books.
I could do it.
No, *really.*
Even with Sesame Street on? I kept wanting to write: B is for Bondage, and F is for Fetish... And the number of the day is three! One, two, three submissives, ah ah ah...
Yours probably would have been better than mine, too.

(Nicole says she thought it was MaidenGurl over in Bitches so I'm transferring this from Natter):
Hey, was someone here looking for a record player or turntable the other day? I was in Urban Outfitters of all places and they had several different types.
ION, what is wrong with people? We've got this huge ass conference coming up, but my actual role is pretty reasonable. So, good right? Because these things are usually grueling. Now this morning I come in to find this in my inbox from one of the VPs:
Brenda, [coworker] mentioned your offer to help in any way at all at the Conf.
Followed by a list of things that is sure to grow as the time approaches. Ass. I know I said to you that I didn't understand the Client Services people who refused to do things when asked, because it really is a good networking/impress the bosses kind of thing for them. For Them. And of course I wouldn't refuse to help out. But that's a long way from what apparently got passed along the chain. And VP in question is dangerous with shit like this - you give her an inch and she'll have mountains of stuff for you to do that's totally not your job. I'm not really pissed, but I am going to have some words with the person in question. My plan was to stay nice and under the radar as much as possible. Why you want to throw me under the bus like that?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Brenda - it was me. I found a suitcase record player that I have ordered.
Team dinner last night was actually fun. Lot of good food at PF Changs and the conversation was fairly flowy. There are just 5 of us. We used to have 6 on our team, and the absence of that one specific person made a HUGE difference in the enjoy-ability of the meal.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I could do it.
No, *really.*
Even with Sesame Street on?
Absolutely! "This episode was brought to you by the letters S and M...."

Best things I've gotten while pregnant: my snoogle, a pregnancy massage, and a pregnancy yoga class. Also, comfy slippers and a nice maternity cadigan.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Tep, there's a hair place in town called S&M Beauty Parlor ... I keep thinking their slogan should be "We don't just tease hair"

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I just woke up from a dream featuring, of all people, Chuck Norris. Sadly all he was doing was appearing in an ad for pantyhose. He was not wearing them, he was mearly quietly admiring some women who were.

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