You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

[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.

Maria, how is the restaurant doing? I seem to remember you were worried about flooding last time I saw you post something.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Thanks for asking, sj. Luckily, the projected 26 feet didn't come to pass. At 19 1/2 feet, we still had a flooded basement, but it didn't come anywhere near the main level. After the water receded, the fire department was kind enough to drop by and hose the flooded areas out. It was the quickest clean-up ever. The only thing left to do was wait for it to dry.

Things were much worse for folks to the north.

I'm glad it wasn't as bad as it could have been. I am going to try to get some of that ever so elusive sleep. Night, Bitches!

Thanks for the suggestions, Sail. I think you're right about the bangs. I love the look of straight bangs with short hair, but I don't think I can probably get my hair to do that. Sigh.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I have showered in these showers. Ah, the joys of no running water. But I was lucky; at least I had electricity!

You know what? I love the fact that we're probably thinking of the exact same laundromat. And now I'm hungry for some of Sam's Sourdough sourdough pancakes. Yummmmmm.

People in Anchorage and Juneau mostly have water. It's those granola hicks in Fairbanks! And, um, the bush. But half might be a (slight) exaggeration.

Okay, possibly. But not by much. Given that one of the houses on my mother's property is lacking running water, and we're less that 5 minutes away from UAF....

GC is SMOKIN' HOTTT. Rrrowr.

lib, I like D.

My brain: full of sharp turns, steep hills, falling rock, oil slicks, secret caves washed out bridges, burnt bridges, no traffic signals, and, often, the Brady Bunch/8 is Enough/Partidge Family Travelin' Porn Revue.

BWAH!

The status is NOT quo.

t is ded from the hawt that is GC

Wow!

Maria, I'm so glad to hear the restaurant is okay.

Friends have been retrieved, delivered, and settled at my place. I have staggered over to ND's place, and he has staggered back from a double-shift of work. We are both sitting here staring into space and making random mumbling noises. Tired now.

t cuddles with anyone in thread still, just 'cause.

move out and draw fire

GC, wow!

You know how, in some English Country House stories, the family doctor is always over for dinner, drinks, taking an evening constitutional with the head of the family? I always sort of thought that was weird.

Well, now that I have my full physical and OB/GYN exams done at the embassy, I can say that it's highly uncomfortable to have someone you randomly see at parties or say hi to in the halls checking out your goolie. Not to mention discussing the depression or the boob implants.

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

See, I knew basing one's haircut on a comic book character was a Good Idea. Gorgeous, GC!

I painted eyes on my brother's ceiling with glow in the dark paint.

I've gotten into this terrible routine where I wake up at seven, think it's too early to be up so I stay in bed, but can't get back asleep, doze off around eight, then sleep until ten. I think I just need to strap my alarm clock to the side of my head.
