'Never Leave Me'
[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.
Her arm still has traces of baby in that picture. Hints of plumpness. It's very much a little kid arm now.
It's amazing to me to look at the pics and realize, wow, I really have lost a bunch of weight between then and now. In addition to getting my hair chopped off.
Thank you guys so much for the links to the articles on the dig! I was just able to use it in my discussion for class when someone said that the house slaves were the same as nannies and housekeepers today.
This has been a good school week.

Aimee, your classmates never cease to amaze.
Yeah, maybe the housekeepers and nannies on certain especially prurient eps of SVU, but otherwise? WTF?

And even there -- you're not legally allowed to rape and beat your housekeeper in modern American society. And if you do it anyway, she has legal rights to turn around and have you put in jail because you don't own her. Which is a pretty key distinction in my mind.
Aimee, your classmates never cease to amaze.
Uh huh.
I just got a free sample of the Weight Watchers Everything Pretzel Thins. I guess it's supposed to be all the stuff that's on an everything bagel, but I think they're forgetting that one component of both a pretzel and an everything bagel is salt. Unsalty pretzels = ick.
Also, I was just looking through the Weight Watchers book that tells the number of points in stuff from pretty much every chain restaurant, and a cheese quesadilla from Baja Fresh is 30 points. That's more than I'm supposed to eat in an entire day. Freaky. (And a vegetable burrito without sour cream, which I'd figured was a relatively healthy option, is something like 12 points.)

It's the tortilla, I bet -- I was browsing Chipotle's online nutritional info one day, and was amazed at the calorie difference between an otherwise identical burrito and burrito bol.
The burrito bol is my master. crazy love that food!
I was planning a road trip recently that was contingent on how many Chipoltles we would pass.
Aimee, your classmates never cease to amaze.
Yeah, they never cease to amaze me either. I know that in any classroom setting, you get a myriad of levels of knowledge and intelligence. And I love that about classrooms. Most everyone has something to contribute.
However, and this is going to come off as totally arrgoant and in general horrible, but I'm begining to see the downside of going to a school that admits anyone and everyone. Sometimes, I feel like the discussions are not furthering my knowledge and learning because it feels like I'm lecturing to people and no one responds to my stuff. I mean, I am learning. Learning is my responsibility, not my classmates to help me learn. I just don't feel like I get as much out of it as I could if there were more of, well, people like us. The discussion we;ve been having here about slavery is like, a billion times more in depth and thoughtful and not chock full of, "Yeah! I agree with that! Good thoughts!"
Also? The typos and misspelling and made up words drive me nuts.
Aimee, your school experience sounds a lot like mine, although I think some of your fellow classmates win the ignorant award this week. We need Buffista University!
