Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else  

[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.

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

The entire answer is "I'm all set, but thanks for asking"

Right, but all that does is make her continue to attempt to convince me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Right, but all that does is make her continue to attempt to convince me.

You need to have some system to let her know she's crossing a line - like maybe you could give her one of those soccer yellow cards....

"No. And if you respected my decision making ability you'd leave it at that, mother" probably wouldn't go over too well, eh?

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

Right, but all that does is make her continue to attempt to convince me.

This is where the lying comes in handy. "I'm locked into this excellent plan for through 2008. Great deal!"

Our wings are not tired.

A quick change of subject could work. "I'm all set on my phone, but thanks for asking. Oh, by the way, I'm thinking of getting married."

eta: and yeah, ya gotta give up the $48

You could adopt a Peter Lorre voice and say, "But the Wombat - he will know. He is spying on me. I must maintain the same cellphone plan so he will not know my plans for the avacado."

Driving to Lauderdale to send DH off the Phoenix at ungodlyoclock tomorrow. He packed his winter jacket. Quick business. But if business goes well we'll go back!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Right, but all that does is make her continue to attempt to convince me.

"Alright Mom, it's been great talking to you, I have to go. Talk to you later. Bye."

You don't need to talk her into you making your own decisions, you just need to make your own decisions.

I'm thinking of getting married

So very helpful. But it would certainly distract from the phone.
