I can't decide if that's a challenge of competing non-neatness, or a subtle threat about not messing up your space, but regardless -- I can totally be neat as a guest! I can! It just doesn't, you know, come naturally.
It's just an object. It doesn't mean what you think.

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.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Oh, definitely the first. We can be slobs together!

What is even happening?
My mother has suggested that after I move I should hire someone to come in and clean once a week, and has offered to pay for it.If you don't take her up on it, I will lose all respect for you.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

What Cindy Said.
Gronk. Today has been a very long day. However, all my student evals are done. (Well, the first drafts. I'm going to have to spend a lot of time Thursday afternoon revising.)

Did my gronk kill the thread? Sorry.
Last night was a gorgeous night. On my way back from supervising study hall, I stopped to watch some fireflies in one of the fields. Then I managed to get inside about 10 seconds before a horrendous thunderstorm hit.

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

Ah! So it was Hil, in the study, with the gronk.
Wally report! Well, I'm still living the dream. So there's that out of the way. Wallybee and I have finalised details for our Alice Springs vacation after I get back from your lovely theme park country. And we wandered around the wilderness reserve at Latrobe Uni, seeing numerous kangaroos and one goat, which I patted (while Wallybee alternately took pics and shrieked whenever it approached her). Oh, and whie we're walknig across a lawn, causing the purple swamphens to go into full ignore mode (seriously, they were ignoring us before, but when we approached I swear they turned it up a notch), swallows flew around our feet after the insects we were stirring up in our wake. For some reason I found that very funny.
Oh! And we watched the first ep of the new Doctor Who season on Saturday night. First time she's watched the whole way through. I may have a convert. (And she's just discovered Fawlty Towers!) And the new Attenborough special started on Sunday night! (Planet Earth.) Huzzah!
Huh.

The status is NOT quo.
Guess what, billytea? Looks like you'll be staying in a brand new domicile in Pasadena. Just got the confirmation email from current landlord saying she's going to call new landlord to say how great I am...HOLY SHIT I THINK WE'RE GOING TO MOVE!

Hey, bt, when are you going to be in NY during this trip? I remember seeing the dates and thinking that I might be around then, but might not, and now I know when I'll be in NY and when I won't, but I've forgotten when you'll be there.

Hey, Californistas -- how far is Thousand Oaks from LA, and how far is Palo Alto from SF? (I'm looking into places to work next summer. This program that I've been working for for the past two summers has sites in a bunch of places, and I'm thinking maybe next year, when I apply, I'll request somewhere West coastish.)
