That was even worse than the Barbie thing.
Wash: I didn't think you were one for rituals and such. Mal: I'm not, but it'll keep the others busy for a while. No reason to concern them with what's to be done.

[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

They tried to start a girl's scout troop in my school. It never came together. I think they managed two meetings before giving up.

I'm getting the pig!
How you doing today, Aimee?
At this point, I'd consider driving to the store to see if any GS are around to buy cookies from. Thank god it's too cold out for GS to survive outside. I really don't need the guilt.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My dad would sell the cookies at work. A bunch of other people at his office had kids in Girl Scouts, so they usually each bought one box from each of the other fathers selling cookies for their daughters.
Nobody in my department now has girls the right age to be in Girl Scouts. Actually, now that I think about it, there is one person with a 10-year-old girl, but I don't know whether she's in scouts or not.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I ordered some Girl Scout cookies. I need to track down that Girl Scout.
I need to track down a Girl Scout to sell me some cookies.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
How you doing today, Aimee?
I'm ok. I started my new Sat job and it was good. Turns out, they buy everyone lunch on Saturdays. That rocks.
I'm still upset about the credit stuff. B&E think we should keep looking, but I am hesitant. I just .... I don't like rejection as it is. This seems like asking for it. If I wanted rejection based on superficial shit, I would have remained an actress.

I should have bought the Girl Scout Cookie ice cream, but I was trying to be good. I got a couple of pounds closer to my goal of losing weight so I can walk with less pain, while I was sick this week.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Sure. I go off and make supper, and wash dishes, and feed the cats, and scrub the kitchen, and here I am way up in the 30's.
Sigh. Foot elevated.

What is even happening?
We only sold them to family. I am so tired of hawking stuff on behalf of the schools, clubs, etc.
The question is, did I do enough so I don't really need to go to the clinic? I don't have medical for another 90 days or so.
I mean, if I keep it clean, and keep dressing it, I should be okay. My only concern now is that i might not be up to date on my tetnus booster.
Daniel, do you have a doctor you can at least call and ask about this? Because you're a diabetic, and because it's glass, I'm worried. Are you sure you got all of it out the wound. I had a (young, non-diabetic) nephew, who got blood poisoning from a glass-in-foot wound. His mother was certain she'd gotten it all out.
I hope it heals quickly, and without trouble.

My Mother felt it was wrong for her to sell them at work.
Your mother and my dad. Since my parents never sold my Girl Scout cookies at work, I made it a policy to only buy Girl Scout cookies from an actual Girl Scout. I said that to one guy at work, and I got a quavering phone call from his daughter, who said, "My dad said that if I called you, you'd buy cookies." I, of course, did.
