Skipped about five brazillian messages to say that I am home, time in Michigan was wonderful, I am somewhat tanned, and am now acatchin' up on life before starting my new job tomorrow.
Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

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.

Welcome back, Aimee! You were missed. I am glad you had a good trip.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
JZ woke me up this morning with a plaintive cry of "We're out of milk! Coffee! Cereal! The world's all gone pear-shaped!"
So I volunteered to get milk. Got dressed without showering or brushing my teeth to make the quick walk to the corner store.
It was closed. Trudged uphill to the small grocery with the good produce. Got milk, Calistoga, some ripe peaches, almond croissaint, chocolate croissant and the NY Times.
Today's Sunday Times was ripe with Buffista entertaining material. A whole big flibbertijibbet article about one young woman's online networking. (The woman was obviously self-aware enough to purposefully paint herself as a 21st century Emma.) The Dodgeball network sounded really interesting but also mildly scary.
Also Anime voice-over article with Full Metal Alchemist pictures. Edmund White's bat-themed vase. And a fashion spread that prompted this comment from me: "Hey, that Givenchy collection has many Jilli-esque touches. Uh, except for the rooster."
(Actually it turned out the rooster was on a Gaultier.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Aimee and Nora both starting new jobs tomorrow? How exciting!
Be sure and eat a good breakfast, girls.

Now tagless for your comfort.
JZ woke me up this morning with a plaintive cry of "We're out of milk! Coffee! Cereal! The world's all gone pear-shaped!"
Soon, this will include diapers. At our house, if had included diet coke, I would have called out the National Guard.
It took me SEVEN phone calls to find one person to go see PotC with me. Do I smell?

What is even happening?
No. You just live somewhere stupid, because it's too far away.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Welcome home, Aimee.
Good luck on your first days of new jobs, Nora and Aims.

What Cindy said. I am ready to see it again; if you were closer, I would totally go with you.
