Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

[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.

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.

I doubt if cats are much more fun than kids in that situation. I'm glad you're ok and are now upstairs.

I'm thinking, with kids and enough batteries for the flash lights, you can take turns telling freaky stories and/or singing silly songs. I did read aloud from my book for a while, but they weren't nearly as interested in finding out who da moiderer was, as you might expect.

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?

Hello my Bitches! I've been traveling to the boonies and have missed you all. I'm home now and have sweet, sweet internet.

I had to skip a lot, but I did see that Emily got a job. Yay!!! And, {{JZ & Hec}} I'm sorry that bedrest has been extended. I'd be bugfuck nutty by now.

Hugs to you all whether you've asked for them or not. Unless you don't like being hugged. Then, um, just feel the waves of hugginess coming at you without actually being hugged.

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

Welcome back, ChiKat!

move out and draw fire

Please, for the love of all that's holy, STOP CHEWING ON THE REMOTE. It's the third one we've had due to waterlogging from you.

All our remotes (now down to 2, thanks to the power of the universal) are kept in the little plastic baggies they come in, taped shut. Or wrapped in plastic wrap.

This has been the practice since long before we wanted children, and may or may not have anything to do with me being a spazz and knocking over drinks or candles...but I bet it would help.

Great idea, Raq. Our dog has already added many unwanted toothmarks to our TiVo remote.

Hey, Hec, I am getting my hair cut and colored tomorrow. I usally color it myself with cheap drugstore stuff, but the week of daily ocean/pool/hot sun exposure in Mexico really destroyed my nice rich red. Someone else washing and coloring my hair--oh, the luxury!

How I envy those hands that play with your hair!

Robin, you and DH look so happy and content in your honeymoon pictures. I just wanted to say again how happy I am for you guys.

Mostly lurking...

We're getting some nasty storms passing through. Toto decided that I wasn't giving him enough attention (he's terrified of storms) in bed, so he made it known that we needed to get up and cuddle on the couch.

I hope the storm passes quickly. I have to be up early.
