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.

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've been under blankets for an hour, my legs (where pea coat stopped and slacks touched skin) are STILL COLD.

Thrive to spite them

she was always giving me presents ahead of time, and I would get mad because I wanted surprises on Christmas morning.

This is my mother. Last year was the first time in a very long time she didn't do that. She does the same thing for birthdays as well.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

You need a cat or a bag of feed corn to microwave. I suppose a hot shower would work too. You could pretend that hot chocolate would help?

Or, if you just wanted sympathy, that I can provide. Sympathy and empathy.

eta: For clarification, this is cold leg advice.

Missed this earlier. My mom still tries to do this, or at least tries to tell me what they are, but I've been insistent enough to keep safe so far. It's funny, because she was fine when I was a kid, but has been doing this for the last few years.

I shouldn't have said "was", because my mother is still doing it. Every time she sees me "Oh, you look cold why don't you wear this sweater I got you for Christmas" or "You need clothes for work, how about this?" or something similar.

Gah! Mothers.

Um, not referring to any mothers on this board, obviously.

If someone has leads on an article, I'll take. It can be general, but it needs to be related to international e-business and I need to be able to pick at legal implications.

Our wings are not tired.

No microwaving the cat!

My mom the opposite. She forgets where she puts stuff so we get our presents at random times when she finds them. She is quite adorable.
