[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.

Yay, for Stephen, AmyLiz! ::does a little happy dance:: The buffista~ma is the best!

ION, they finally hired another test technician for my department. Whoot! I'm sure my other tech must be wiping his brow in relief, the poor bugger was putting in 10 hours days while I was gone and still not keeping up. No fault of his, it's the end of the month and they're dumping on us hugely in order to make budget.

The Patron? Very possibly.

Well, clearly I'm going to have to buy a bottle of each to find out which one I liked so much.

::does a little happy dance::

I'm doing my happy dance very cautiously, since my clogged ears are completely frelling my balance.

He'd heard (as I told some of you in SF) that it was thisclose to official last week, but getting the actual offer and the start date is still a Very Good Thing.

Congratulations to Stephen!!

I, too, would like to know how to pronounce Fernet. I'm not sure about tasting it. Oh, hell, of course I would.

d, that cartoon was too perfect, and I've forwarded it to friends who will appreciate it to no end. Because they've suffered, eyes glazed, through conversations just like it.

Today was my last day of external radiation, yipee!! I'm celebrating with a reuben, fries, and a chocolate malted in a few minutes. Which I'll probably pay for later, but I don't care.

Loving all the pictures from F2F. Sorry for the ick, though.

There should be more good news, for everyone.

I was thinking that I could do mine on teaching abstinence vs. birth control in public schools.

From way back, but continuing the alchohol talk, I originally read this as absinthe vs. birth control in public schools. I SO need this long weekend.

Wheee! Sounds like you've got the initial celebration all planned there.

And that would also be an interesting essay.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

YAY Stephen, and Amyliz!

I need to go get a replacement bottle for the tequila/coffee liqueuer. It's a good thing I didn't know how good it was earlier. Same goes for the lemon liqueuer.
