Now hold on, I'm gonna press the right pedal harder. I expect us to accelerate.

[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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Little twitterpated Tigger!

Good luck, vw!!!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Gotcha, vw.

I would warn you on the inspection thing - how do you know they didn't inspect? I find it very hard to believe they didn't set foot in the apartment between tenants - whether they inspected or not, if you all didn't record or object to any damages, that's unlikely to fall out in your favor. Not that you know yet whether they are planning to claim damages in the first place.

Also, the interest on a security deposit is likely to be very, very tiny, so even at triple you're probably talking lunch money.

Not to be warning you off or anythings, it's just that you have so many significant issues I would try to avoid getting bogged down in this one before you even see how they'll behave as far as returning the security goes.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Good luck, vw!!

yay, juliana! Happy happies!

Baby Dedications: I grew up with a tradition of baby dedications. It's a church ritual where the parents, family and church family all dedicate to be there for the child and raise the child in a Christian home. It's a churchy community thing. Very much it takes a village church to raise a healthy, happy, Christian child.

Never are there post-dedication celebrations, except the family/extended family going out for lunch together after church. Particularly since grandparents/aunts/uncles/counsins/etc. often come in from out of town for the church ceremony. But, it's not a present occassion.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Since Joe and I aren't religious in any sense of the word, we had a blessing down on the beach in Santa Monica. We each had a balloon and we all made our wish for her and then released the balloons. And then we all went to dinner at Gladstone's.

Herding cats for fun

Go Tiggers!

and I will sue them into 2010. BRING IT.

I just took a look at the how to chop an onion instructions. It includes slicing with the knife blade horizontal. Not happening with any knife in my hands. I will have to continue in my incompetent onion chopping ways.

Right there with you. Perpedicular choppers unite!

(Waves at Beverly) Nice to see your pixels again. Hope today is going well for you.

In Me-Related News: I am going to go pick up a Big New Bookshelf today and put it in my living room across from the Wall of Books. Half price furniture from St. Vincent's is my lucky day! It's heavy and tall and walnutty and every other shelf is adjustable. I will shelve all my history-related books in it and it will be wonderful.
