Lydia: Its removal from Burma is a felony and when triggered it has the power to melt human eyeballs.
Giles: In that case I've severely underpriced it.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[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.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

To which I say: "You've seen this episode of CSI, like, 4021 times. Get off the couch already."

Sigh.
Hard to argue with truth.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
But I'm just fucking exhausted, and the day's barely half over.
So...I guess I'm not going out writing tonight after work after all?
Take her outside is my advice. Put her in the front pack and walk. She'll conk out.

Oh, poor JZ and Matilda. Peace to you both!
These earplugs have been in my ears every night for the last 20 years. They are fantastic for cutting out the very high level tones but leaving you able to hear everything else. I cut one in two so each package is actually 12 pairs...and I reuse them, so they end up not being expensive at all. And the peace? Priceless.
When my friend's baby wailed in my house for, I kid you not, 5 straight hours one night...these babies saved us both.
eta: I get my supply from Target...and am continually looking for a source where I can buy them bulk. Seriously, if Mack's ever goes out of business, I'll never sleep again.

If I only had a brain...
Bless you, JZ. I remember days like that all too vividly. Here's hoping she drops off soon.
Anyway, you can be a loving mother and still want to SEND THAT KID INTO ORBIT sometimes. It doesn't make you abusive (as long as you don't buy a rocket ship); it makes you human. There are few sounds as maddening as a baby crying; we're wired to respond.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
What Betsy said, JZ. Let me know if you need me to swoop in this weekend.
