I can't do them. Flip flops end up hurting my feet. In Suzi-World, they are only good for going to and from a pedicure.
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

[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.

I had a Bad Experience with flip-flops as a kid. It involved an unexpected 5 mile hike and four blisters the width of my thumb. I just can't bring myself to wear them anymore.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Flip-flops are usually the only sandals that don't give me blisters, but they need to have REALLY thick soles because I wear them out so fast.

Megan, my sympathies to you and your MIL.
Trudy, how about flowers and a really nice vase?
David, I got my hair cut too - it's shorter than usual!

Thanks for all the punctuation and ma. It's appreciated!
I also got my hair cut yesterday, to correct a bad cut I got on Tuesday. It's pretty short now! Ieeee....

Always Anti-fascist!
I watched Lane on GG dye her hair purple...now I wanna do that. Joblessness and being economically disenfranchised should mean not having to dress like a citizen if I don't feel like it. People already look anyways, although Mom hates it when I talk about that. Like if I don't, I'm sitting in a tasteful fashion accessory. Whatever. I'm already not going to blend, maybe I should live in neon, you know?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
tonight I get Perkins, juliana, a murder mystery play and booze - does that count? I'm sure there will be cabana boys basking around juliana and I can bask in her shadow.
errrr. I am going to have to be all tentatively on tonight, I'm afraid. (Juliana, I sent you an email earlier, but if it got to you too late, just let me know, and I will paypal you if I don't make it.)
Stoopid back, stoopid gravity, and stoopid me.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
erika, I think you should get a custom wheelchair made with round tubing and painted in neon colors. Then, you could dye your hair to match (or in contrast; your hair, your choice) and get tattoos in random places that anyone can see. I say, if ya got it, flaunt it! Just because "it" is a wheelchair, doesn't mean you can't make a personal statement. I think there's been too much of an effort to "mainstream" many types of handicaps, as if by doing that the handicaps will just go away. They won't. So, make it a fashion statement, at least.

I'm getting the pig!
How do I just enjoy the time that T and the nephews are still here and not get all weepy about them leaving every few minutes?
No real advice, just {{{you}}}. It has to be hard since you and T have been friends for FOREVER and then some. I'm sorry a large chunk of your "family" is moving away, hon.
All kinds of ~ma to all that are dealing with this, Megan.
Poor, poor Perkins. We need to get you a plastic bubble to live in...
