That's disturbing. You're emotionally scarred and will end up badly.

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.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Oh, and Cincy.

Woot!!!

I'm not missing it this time. It would take the ebola virus for me to miss this.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

we called the plumber and they got here lightning fast with a sump pump and the installation skillz to boot.

We share overall responsibility with our condo neighbors. Our cellar appears to be the lowest point, so we have most of the water. We're gonna buy the pump (just us), but we'll send the plumbers their way after the install. I think that once our cellar is cleared, their water will flow in anyway.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

It sounds like things are getting worked out, Nora - I hope so, anyway.

I am gronking a mighty gronk. Yesterday I got bit by some anonymous insect (or possibly spider ) on my cheek down by the jaw. It swelled up quite a bit, and my whole face felt huge. I slathered on some aloe gel mixed with green tea leaves for a bit of a poultice over night, and this morning applied honey to it. It feels much, much better than it last night. Still, big honking red sore on face, ick.

What is even happening?

Oh, good. You'll be glad to have the pump. You probably won't need it all that often, but the times you do, you'll find it priceless.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My first thought: "It was flying?"

Then I pictured a gas cloud firing missiles at the volcano.

Yeah, that was my first or second reaction (I forget). In any event, I had to read the headline twice and then think about it for a bit.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

So why must DH give me a reason to be annoyed somewhere in the 24 hours before he leaves for a trip.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm not missing it this time. It would take the ebola virus for me to miss this.

I'll hold you to that. I mean, not to an ebola virus, because that would just be wrong.

sump pump has been installed and is pumping. Since the water is not flowing toward it after the initial part of the draining process, Tom and my neighbor are helpfully shoving water toward it.

Still getting our airport pickup at noon. Flight to San Francisco at 2:35pm seems to still be on time.

When we return, we will have the plumbers install it permanantly in the ground. Today, they're all about the set up to drain the immediate issue and move on to the next customer. Plumb and move on, plumb and move on.

Just overheard at work - "That wizard gives bad advice. Don't pay attention."
