Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen  

[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've got a gun! I've got a mother-flippin' gun!" - Moss, The IT Crowd

That's gloriously bizarre, with the ugly divorce and the pull-apart bookshelf and the sleuthing by the sons. If you tried to pass it off as fiction, you'd get spanked by your beta readers for unacceptable improbability.

The video really shows how well made the bookshelf is.

Punishingly Intricate

I want to modify the second tat from the bottom - it's not working, and it's not correct. Any ideas of something to disguise it/make it something else?

I'm not an artist so I don't know if this would work anywhere except in my head but my first thought was to enclose the whole set in a sort of a house with the one you want to change being turned into a window. With, maybe, a tree outside the window. Does that make any sense?

Home from mani/pedi, Harvard Square jaunt, and therapy. Therapist said it was a good thing I had a wake-up call on my own, 'cause otherwise, she was gonna have to give me one today. So, good all around!

My toenails are a shimmery green. My fingernails are a pretty gold. Yes, I'm predictable during baseball season.

Bwah!

Not as bad as I was in high school, though. I'd get purple and gold rubber bands put on my braces each week. I was pathetic.

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

At least you were in High School.

Do you honestly doubt for a cold second that if Suzi were wearing braces the bands would be green and gold?

True. Very good point.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Using this Diet Sleuth program continues to be a real eye-opener. I read labels assiduously before, but I suck at math so I guess it was easier to "round down" in my mind. Seeing this program render a pie chart of the fat, protein and carbohydrate composition of my daily food choices is a shocker. Lots of data entry, though, as the Trader Joe's things I eat tend to be lower in fat and sugar than the generic entries the FDA has in its database.
