She has such a touchy little system. Our vet is apparently a single babe in my age range...Mom says I should take her next time. Apart from the ugly problem, would that be a meet-cute or what?
No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

[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.

I've got way more books than shelf space right now, but I'm having trouble finding floor space to put another bookshelf.
Sister! I'm currently plotting an elaborate rearrangement of two rooms to squeeze in another bookcase.
There is no age limit for a career crisis, Juliana. I don't usually recommend self-help books, but What Color Is Your Parachute is helpful to a lot of people.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Okay. After devoting myself almost full-time since 10:30 to this, I owe the DMV another $21 and they promise that's it, no more mystery charges sprouting up out of nowhere. I'm still expecting to be roundly fucked come Monday when I go in to pay, but for now that's what they're saying. Then there's the car insurance and the credit card payment and we're done for the month. And after this weekend of relative-hosting, the credit cards go in the freezer.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
And jeez, how pathetic is it that I'm having the traditional mid-20's "I don't know what to DOOOO!" angst at 31?
I am right there with you, my sister in 31-yr-old "Well, fuck, what now?"
Of course then I'm all "I'll write a comic! I'll go to grad school! I'll design clothes! I'll knit couture dog sweaters! I'll have a girly pink sex shop! I'll fight crime! It'll be awesome!" Then I fall over with exhaustion at how busy ideal me is.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
"I'll write a comic! I'll go to grad school! I'll design clothes! I'll knit couture dog sweaters! I'll have a girly pink sex shop! I'll fight crime! It'll be awesome!"
I want you to do all of those things!
FWIW, I didn't publish my first book until mere weeks before I turned 40.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Then I fall over with exhaustion at how busy ideal me is.
YES. "I'll study Shakespeare! I'll own a karaoke bar! I'll become a massage therapist!" Oy.

Clearly, you and I should go into business together, juliana. For we have ideas that are both right and good.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I turn 40 in ten weeks. Crap.

Yes. Also, we are very pretty and can hold our liquor.
