Angel: Eve. So, I guess we should, I don't know, talk? Eve: About what? Angel: About what happened back there with us. Eve: Angel, it's not like this is the first time I've had sex under a mystical influence. I went to U.C. Santa Cruz.

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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Thanks, JZ. I was trying to explain that I wasn't angry, just hurt, and that I was really excited to give him his present (which he didn't want to open because it would make him feel bad).

Then he told me it was my fault because I didn't leave the card this morning.

He's run off now for a couple of hours to try and salvage the thing, which is a nice gesture, and I hope it works, but I kinda feel like he missed the point.

See for the past 2 years he's had to work on V-Day. I have too, but I got off earlier, so I'd go get flowers-something manly like birds of paradise-dinner, chocolates, card and present. I think last year I even made his favorite pie. I mean, I was kinda busy too, but I thought it would be nice to have me do something for him on V-Day. Today I worked and he had the day off, but he paid a parking ticket and took the cat to the vet so I guess that left him no time.

Because books.

Aw, DJ, that's sucky. But maybe he can make it up to you in other ways.

Yeah. I think I'm going to have a glass of wine, a cigarette, watch FNL and hope for the best.

I can't help it -- I have to share a cute kid story.

So Sara's standing on her bed, telling jokes (she's seen The Amanda Show on Nick with her brother) that include such original gems as, "What does shark do on a fishie? ... Swim!" She ends her act, and Ben and I tell her, "Take a bow, take a bow!" as we mime the action.

Crickets, as she looks at us.

Finally, she sort of salutes and says proudly, "Tinkerbell!"

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Oh, billytea, that's incredibly sweet.

Isn't it? I'm pretty sure that a pen is a symbolic gift here, indicating intelligence. So that's nice too. I'm intrigued by the children's exercise book too, it's rather more complex than the other ones I've seen.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm pretty sure that a pen is a symbolic gift here, indicating intelligence.

Or maybe it's because "pen" are the first three letters of "penguin."

OK, probably not.

Ah, not in Chinese. In Chinese it's 企鹅 (I'm curious to see if that comes out), or qĭ’é in Pinyin. It means, roughly speaking, 'goose standing on tiptoe'. And the Chinese for Echidna is 'spiny mole'! It's very charming.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh, jeez. I don't even want to think what type I am.

You're so totally Carrie Fisher. Like Carrie Fisher if she were blond. (Remind me next time you're in SF to tell you my CF story. She is awesome.)

And I'm dying at "take a bow" becoming "tinkerbelle"!!

And now I wanna see the Quiznos commercial.

And I also love Matilda in the A's cap. But she needs a Giants cap, too, methinks.

Hee. Did y'all clap? I'm just wondering if that's where the Tinkerbell came from.

I love trying to figure out kids' brains. When I was little, I thought you could get money from McDonalds because I saw mom getting change.

Ah. You're much better at this than I am.
