Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

'First Date'


Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!  

[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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Interview-ma for Jilli and a good day to juliana!

I just spent most of the morning helping to clean my mom's electric range. The guys had the worst of it, because of the unbelievable yutz they found behind and beneath it. I'm wishing blessings on their heads, every one, because they'd gotten the top of it and the counter next to it completely clean before I even got there to help. I went away with all the burners, drip pans and rings in a bucket of degreaser, and scrubbed a while on those. One of the burners needs replaced, but the others should work fine, now that they're clean. We still haven't reset the circuit breaker, though. And we may not, unless we can agree to supervise whatever cooking Mom attempts. There will be stealth attacks on the rest of the countertops and the cabinets in the next few weeks, during the early morning hours when she's sleeping, too. When it's done we'll all breathe a little easier.

We have Stephanie's weather. I should get outside and do something.

Oh, I meant to say that the scary kids and food photos gave me flashbacks. I think Sunbeam bread still uses one of those devil children on its wrappers.

And Yay! for Steph's Big!boss. The human body and spirit are, quite frequently, amazing.

Now tagless for your comfort.

interview-ma for Jilli!

It's about sixty degrees and sunny here, too. We went out for lunch even though my head cold is still lingering. Owen doesn't want to nap today for some odd reason.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I could tell you the horror story from my Friday date....

Is this the Other Irish Guy?

If I only had a brain...

A participant in a meeting was making a presentation. One attender had to telephone in and couldn't see the slides.

She explained that she hadn't sent him the slides because she didn't want him to read ahead in the presentation .

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Do! Do! C'mon, I'm stuck in the Norfolk airport! Do it for me, baby!!

Spoilers for presentations? I'd smack her if I were him.

Well, you see, there were bullets for the top five user complaints, and we were supposed to guess what they were before she let us read them. The top complaint showed up and was animated! yea!

I want to revoke the person in question's license to Powerpoint.

I'm getting the pig!

Not. clicking. on. bad. food. pics.

Well, it's not all bad. In fact, I now have a "Meat... You're right in liking it" mini poster taped up in my office. Good times!

I could tell you the horror story from my Friday date....

Oh no! Say it ain't so. That damn Universe was given explicit instructions. Doesn't anyone read their urgent memo's anymore. Good dates only for Juliana! Sheesh.

She explained that she hadn't sent him the slides because she didn't want him to read ahead in the presentation .

It's possible that we share a co-worker...
