NO! No I did not!
Aha! Well, neither did I until last night. Le Bloke picked up at a flyer at a comic book shop. I'm not sure on the details, but yeah, comic book and SF thingy.
Ooh, wait, he just came on msn. I shall garner details.
Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

Spike's Bitches 31: We're Motivated Go-getters.
[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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
A side ponytail, some serious blush and eye shadow and you can look eighties no matter what else you wear.
Good idea, but I don't have any makeup here.
Rolling up the cuffs of my jeans to make them into pedal-pushers, plus white t-shirt and high ponytail, with Converse, seems to work for impromptu fifties, I think. (Why did I forget to bring a tie-dye shirt? They have theme days every year, and a tie-dye shirt is always useful for at least one of those.)

Yes, yes it is. Fancy it?

Oooh! I could definitely be tempted. Although I rather fear the money haemmoraging thing, but, but...and it looks like it's close to the train station and everything!

Cash, JZ, and flea - thanks for the maternity-wear advice and links. I've forwarded it all. Up to and including the surry/Suri discussion.
I'm glad your DH is home and doing well, connie. May the treatment do its job well.
Cash, so sorry the shot has lost effectiveness; I'm sending along all good thoughts and -ma for you.
R's boss is an asshead.
Agreed.
Serious health-ma to your grandpa, Steph.
Dental health-ma to Robin. Minimal pain, too.
Yay, Jen! Congratulations!
I will be Pirating at the movies on Saturday with my niece, assuming there are tickets to be had. And I will look appropriately piratey, too, including my skull and crossbone earring in the second hole of the two-hole ear and my requisite scarf, of course.
ETA: And, sj, energy-ma to you.

That should do it. Okay, I'll throw in a going for a pint. You've twisted my arm.

The status is NOT quo.
Fay, I completely understand the home but not at home thing. I felt it (to a minor degree) when I was back east earlier in the summer. Very disconcerting.
ION, yay Nurse Jen!!

Coffee (what? it's breakfast to me):
So much ~ma to Bitches who need it: ((((Cash, Connie and DH, Robin, sj, Teppy and grandpa)))) and anyone else I missed.
I am in CarMax getting my Forester appraised. Hopefully they'll offer me enough money to mean I don't have to sell it myself. I really hate having to deal with car selling to private parties.

...although I must confess to being a total and utter lightweight with alcohol now. (3 years in a Muslim country, for half of which time my flatmate/constant companion was allergic to alcohol.)
I gather the fair opens at midday. Could we maybe meet at the train station? Around, er, 1ish?
