Spike's Bitches 32: I think I'm sobering up.  

[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.

brillig

are there any Buffistas within reach of Boise, Idaho?

Not in practical reach, unfortunately. I'm in Provo, Utah.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Oh my son adores it too.

Do you ever discuss with him some of the more adult themes of the show, like the fact that Jet is a psychopath and Ba Sing Se is a classic Orwellian dystopia?

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I mentioned Kristin's dinner to DH and he assumed I was spending the night there next weekend. I don't wanna party crash, but I thought it was funny that he now assumes I'm just gonna not be able to drive home.

Jet is a psychopath

He got that one on his own.

Ba Sing Se is a classic Orwellian dystopia

He gets part of it, he's only 10 so we have to go slow. He really loves it though. He's got some pretty insightful ideas, all things considered.

Yeah. The end of that episode was so damn creepy.

That's cool. My ten-year-old cousin is also a big fan. Like, he pointed out continuity that I didn't notice.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

JZ fixed the espresso machine! She called the help number and they said, "Oh, the first time it sometimes takes 10 tries before the pump will prime. Just keep hitting that button." I only hit it about 8 times, I guess.

Anyway, it makes very good espresso which is perfect on such a drizzly gray day in SF.

I took Matilda with me on an outing downtown, braving the rain with a Baby Bjorn and an umbrella. I met ex-minion and went to my old temp agency (where I started 20 years ago - I know the owner very well). Owner was very happy to see the babe and got me some quickie work on election night sorting ballots. Woot! Money is good and it's time and a half.

Exactly. (Plus he got the RNA symbol running through Heroes before his dad did. HA!)

Now tagless for your comfort.

Excellent!

DH made tacos for dinner and I'm catching up on Heroes. I'm toying with the idea of going out for pumpkin pie (and whipped cream, natch).

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Ooh! Other Avatar fans! I just got hooked on the show. P-C, your tagline made me laugh until I was in pain when I first heard it on the show.

Anne, I was eating dinner, and I had to pause in order to laugh for a solid minute and to keep myself from choking. I still laugh every time I read it or think about it.

You should check out my pimping post about it, as well as some of the comments.

This conversation will be pretty interesting, whereas this one is a bucket of hilarity. There may be spoilers for the second season, though, if you haven't seen it yet.
