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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I have 5 packages that have to go out Priority Mail today. And I have no boxes. Blah.

Pete is Way Too Excited about organizing his killing spree.

Nah, it's just so easy to overlook the little things like the gamertag - the only way for the players to actually hook up. That's not something I'd want to realize I'm missing on the day of the event.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Emmett is just gaining points all over the place. He's a good kid. And Matilda! Recognizing her sibling! How precocious. And precious.

I remain skeered of earthquakes. I'm not fond of tornadoes, hurricanes and floods, either, but there's something fundamentally *wrong* about the earth moving (other than, you know, "the earth moved" moments). Nothing remains to trust.

I bolted a cup of coffee before we ran errands, and while I was gone, StY drank my second cup. I was disappointed, but not enough to make more coffee. We finished off the last (okay, never say that, ever. Because you know when you do, it just means you forgot something) errand, and found a bonus. The person in charge of candy and chocolate buying picked up milk chocolate covered cherries for Mom and for himself. While we were out I spotted dark chocolate covered ones--not only that, but dark chocolate *mint* ones. I may expire from the combination of yumminess.

Also, I just boiled some eggs to have on hand for salads and things, and peeled and ate one still warm. It was perfect, the white completely firm and set, and the yolk still just barely orange and translucent. Yum! The others will be completely cooked by the time they're cool.

Because books.

I love boxing up packages. Especially Christmas stuff, where everything can be individually wrapped, and then snugly fit into the box. There's something oddly satisfying about it that sings to an otherwise latent anal-retentive part of my brain. I also go a little wild with the packing tape.

But then, I have no post office fear. I will mail anything for anybody! It's fun! Sending prezzies away to unsuspecting peeps!

The Emmett/Matilda love is so reminiscent of the Ben/Sara love that it gives me warm fuzzies.

I love the post office. I have great sympathy for the guys at the counter, so long as they're giving it their best shot.

Yay Joe!

In additional pretty good news, Hubby has an old student loan that has haunted us for decades. I don't mind dealing with it, because I can say, "He got that loan before I knew he existed, you can't touch me, jackhole." Anyway, the loan has been handed off to yet another company, who contacted us yesterday to discuss matters. After a run down of the realities of our finances, the person on the other end was actually human-like and helpful. When Hubby told her that he was applying for disability, she asid, "If that goes through, call us. We'd more than likely waive the student loan completely."

That would be nice to be rid of. Then Hubby could apply for a passport and contemplate leaving the country.

Yay, Aims! That's great news.

Connie, that's good news, too! It always surprises me when the collection people are helpful and human-like.
