Connie, when my ex-worked on a fishing boat, the captain used to chew licorice on late night watches. He hated the stuff, so it kept him awake. Maybe a flavor of gum you dislike, to pop in at 4am?
My whole life, I've never loved anything else.

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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Jumping over just over 500 posts to say, Teacup Guy and I are home from Cape Cod. We had a wonderful time, and I will try to catch up here as soon as possible. In the meantime, hugs and ~ma to all who need them.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Yay for having a good time, sj!

Thanks! We were staying at the time share I have been going to since I was 5, except I hadn't been in a couple of years. It was so good to be there again and even better showing Teacup Guy all of the places I love.

Wow, it has been quiet in here this afternoon.
I came home from work early and snuggled up with my heating pad. It has helped my shoulder a bunch. Mom has been doting on me, cutting my meat at dinner, making sure I have pain meds, and all that. I feel like I'm 5 years old.
Welcome back sj.

Hey all! ND and I are at the Hollywood Bowl watching/listening to the world premiere of a live symphonic performance of Fantasia synchronized to video. Don't worry, it's intermission. Wow is it amazing. They're not doing it just like the movie; the conductor says Disney always intended Fantasia to evolve, so it's a mix of new and old. One of the new pieces was an incredible Salvadore Dali cartoon with gorgeous Mexican symphonic music. Anyway, I know I'm in LA because 1) Roy Disney Jr. is here and 2) at the end of the first act, they played "The Magician's Apprentice", and Mickey Mouse came out to shake the conductor's hand.
I love Los Angeles. Have I mentioned that lately? Okay, back to the show. Fireworks at the end! Whee!

Our wings are not tired
The downside is the conversation between the two california party girls sitting behind us. I don't think the total IQ between them is higher than the temperature in my fridge.

He speaks true. Now they're talking about being "cleansed" with some drink involving molasses. Oh. Dear.

That's pretty common. It also involves cayenne pepper.
Quote from the conversation, "Isn't it ironic? I'm from california and the last swimsuit I bought was in Seattle. Its so ironic."

So new computer!!!
With recovered data!!!
Which... is for some reason missing almost 2G of my music files. Um... huh? I know there's software out there, but having just spent $100 to get my data saved, I resent also having to pay $20 because somehow they didn't actually save all of it. What else might be missing? Grr.
Also, I can right now only use it online within about two feet of my brother's desktop computer. Which is not so handy.
