Oh, Aimee, I'm sorry.

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.

I vote the mess is not that bad, sj. And leave out a bowl of milk (I think that's what you do for house-cleaning brownies).
Bowl of milk, check. TCG fell asleep, and I am playing on the computer, so I hope they show up soon.

{{{Aimee}}} Good luck getting everything done. I hope the drugged up princess sleeps during the entire flight.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Ahhhhh. I finally got my bangs trimmed. I was barely able to see through them for the last week or so! Then I went shopping and was able to see the back of my hairdo and it's so cute. I've had it for months now but I never see the back at home. My hairdresser rocks.

I love Gloomcookie's stylist for making her look so fab all the time.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Aww. Poor sick Em. Poor head-splodey Aimee.
And, I got enough money to go volunteer in Israel! And this also gives me some motivation to get in better shape -- if the pioneers could work the land and dig ditches and build buildings and all of that without air conditioning or, really, anything, (I've even heard stories of some who walked to Israel from Europe), then I can get into good enough shape to plant trees and paint bomb shelters and set up park benches and stuff without getting too tired.

That's great, Hil! And good idea for motivation.
I think I have successfully dyed my hair. I need to wash it and see how much colour stays, but once I do that I will take pictures.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I'm glad Burrell skimmed, because I can add that my Hubby uses "bitte" as "excuse me, what was that you just said, could you repeat that?"
The full German phrase that comes from is "wie, bitte?", which translates literally to "how, please?" and pretty much means what Connie said.
In my house, "bitte" has become reflex for that usage.
Heh. Cincinnatians have a verbal quirk of saying "Please?" when they mean "Can you repeat yourself?" (Or, as I like to snark, instead of "Huh?") Because Cincinnati is so heavily German in origin, a few things hung around, and "Please?" is one of them.
I got soundly mocked by my friends in college for saying "please?" instead of "huh?" -- almost as much as I got mocked for saying "pop" instead of "soda."
