Saturday? You could feel indispensable.

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’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Nora, sometimes the tough love is what friends need. Good for you for doing the brave thing and telling it like it is, not what she wants to hear.
Well, it's more selfish than anything else. But at this point it's either be upfront and realistic (and remember she did the same to me back in the day) or not be her friend anymore because OMG, she is annoying.

Nora, good for you. Seriously, sometimes I just want to shake my clients who have a need to stay tethered to losers and share their gleeful misery. Upfront and realistic is sometimes the greatest gift you can give anyone. Be strong!
erika! Congrats on the publishing, even if it was a long time coming. Published! Again! Good on ya.

After my plea for facepainting ideas on Saturday, I ended up winging it with decent results.
Here are the results, including a gratuitous smooch shot with Fella I included to show off my short hair to David. Plus a coupla shots of Bartleby and Fella. cuz I'm crazy about them both.

Congrats on getting published again, erikaj!
In less exciting, but still happy-making-for-me news, I'm finally getting a new sofa. Or rather, a sofa period, since it isn't replacing an old one. It'll be delivered this Friday. I can finally invite multiple localistas over and have a place for them to sit that isn't the floor.

Eggs-and-bacon: Beej, when I clicked on the link, I was told there were no photos in that collection.

Thanks Calli, I'm off to fix it.
ETA: Try this link for the photos.
ETAA: Huh, the link goes to the unedited version of the collection, without captions or effects. Some of the pics are weirdly pixelated. I'll have to fix that too.

man, pregnancy makes you gassy; not enough of the books warn you sufficiently about that
Oh, cripes. Sorry, I should have warned you about that.

Because books.
Yay, erika! Is this the House essay being published?
