I'm sorry, Daniel.
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.
Girly question...
I bought new bras today and they fit but I am PMS like whoa and since that comes with swollen breasts ... is this going to affect their fit once normalcy sets back in? It's a new size bra, so I am hoping I didn't make a mistake. Also? Boobs owwwwwwwww!
get rid of that godawful cream-of-tomato-soup colored mock turtleneck that every SO you've had for the last decade (and, who knows, maybe longer) has loathed. Words cannot express how profoundly tomato soup is not your color.
Can't. Stop. Laughing. Oh dear. The combination of JZ being mistaken as a homeless person (which is ridonkulous as she always looks sassy and stylish) combined with this comeback just killed me ded.
{{{{Daniel}}}} I'm very sorry for you and your mom.
Raq, I love the weekend spa idea.
Gud, I am SO happy to hear about your marriage. Great news.
Daniel, I'm so sorry.
Glad for the Gud (good) news!
I totally heart Sofia. Small pink can, sweet ass sparkling wine - what's not to love?
Skippity skipping like mad to bring you these thoughts on viewing a stranger's summer vacation slide show:
I was flipping through the channels on tv this evening after everything quieted down at work, when I landed on a show that surprised me. It took me ten minutes of utter fascination to realize that I was watching some guy on a local access station with a slide show from his summer vacation. Mind you, it was this guy: [link] Eric Simonson, professional mountaineering guide. And the summer in question was 1999 [link] when he led an expedition up Everest. The truly intriguing bit is that Simonson's goal was not the summit, but to look for traces of George Mallory and Andrew Irvine who were last seen nearing the summit in 1924, and may have beaten Hillary to the top by 29 years.
ETA: Yay, darling Buffista toddlers. Yay, Gud's gooder-marriage news. Yay, Plei's job news. Job~ma to them that still need it.
Daniel, I'm so sorry.
Daniel, sorry to hear about the news. Very strange the time delay and all.
JZ, OMG! I'm sitting in an empty theater, dark at that, and I burst out laughing on the homeless guy thing. Sorry. But it was funny.
3) Apparently, the full year subscription for the regular Xbox is actually quite hard to get ahold of these days. Microsoft is making it harder to join Live with an old box because they just love annoying their current customer base who hasn't yet invested several hundred bucks in the latest hardware. They are asshats. I'd start looking around for one of the subscriptions now. No, I don't think the 360 subscriptions are useable.
Hmm, any ideas where to look? as I've never ventured this land before, suggestions would be welcome.
O ya, Pete, DIED with your taunt for MiracleMan! A double whammy! Hope we can get a nice live-fest happening. Should be fun.
Time to drive home. Hopefully tomorrow tech will be slow enough that I can catch up on all the posts. WHOLLY COW! A ton of them these past few days! (I skimmed to catch up in Bitches, my fav!)
Gud, I'm so pleased to hear that things are going better. I was you in your neck of the woods last week, but way too crazy busy to get together with you and Erin. Maybe next time...
The Hec and JZ show is pretty damn funny. And poor JZ, but what a nice, sweet homeless man!
Mom and I are quilting like crazy over here. Must. Get. This. Quilt. DONE!
Timelies!
Obviously the homeless man has impeccable taste. He saw a beautiful woman with a cart and the beauty so befuddled him that he didn't think that perhaps the beautiful woman wasn't going his way. (I laughed too.)
Daniel, I'm sorry for your loss. Vibes for your mom.
Gud, lovely news. I'm glad things are going well.
Beautiful children! I also need pictures of Plei.
There was more, but I mislaid the notes in my head and they're all jumbled up with work stuff. I will likely attach a picture of beautiful sleeves to the next marketing proposal I send out.
((((Daniel and familiy))))
Raq, I don't know about a 50th, but I've always had luck with jewelry as gifts for women, even in the days when my budget meant a very inexpensive stick pin. But it's really a question of the personality of the women in question -- if she doesn't wear jewelry, that doesn't help.
