[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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Very addled uncle, Aimée.

If smoking stopped work or a love life, there would be a massive increase in unsexed, jobless people around the country.

ION, We have a winter storm developing here through tomorrow night.

One I might have to drive through to my first day of work tomorrow.

I might have to build a survival kit. Haven't needed one this winter, as we had no need to go out of town on bad winter days.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Okay, I realize the mundanity of this and that I'm making something of a bigger deal than it really is. But would it have killed her to at least acknowledge that that bothered me? Instead of throwing thinly veiled blame at me again? jesus. I might just become a hermit. Honestly.
@@ That hermit thing is exceptionally attractive sometimes.
"Yeah, she smokes. And she wonders why she doesn't have a job OR a man!"
Well obviously. Everyone knows it.

t rereads

Though the hermit-y thing probably explains why I have neither job nor man.

Urg. Been doing pretty well with the diet the last few days, but my minion suggested beers after work today and...yeah.

But he had a point - we've made it halfway through our boss being gone! Said boss being the first line of defense against the seriously psycho dynamics of this company - I've bitched a little on lj, but left out a shitload, really. So, yay us.

Also, kind of drunk now. Think I'll go grab another beer.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Hi everyone. My internet connection's been messed up for the past few days, so I just skipped a whole ton of posts. Hope I didn't miss anything important.

I started at the internship today. It was a lot of fun, and pretty cool.

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 don't think she'll ever think of us again. ::sniff::

Hil does math for glamor and the fast life now, I remember when she did it to figure out how much she had to drink.

Fortunately, she'll be able to afford a driver.

Its about the new safety recommendations for car seats, etc. Among other things they're telling us:

The government recommends that parents have any infant up to 20 pounds ride in a rear-facing child seat and any toddler weighing 20 to 40 pounds ride in a child seat with a harness. The government says a child heavier than 40 pounds but not yet 4 feet 9 inches tall should be in a booster seat.

All children are advised to ride in the back seat until age 13.

Why do they give a size recommendation for the one and an age for the other? It makes no sense. I was taller at 12 than any number of Buffistas who drive are now. My suspicion is that they don't want to give a size for that very reason.
