Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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."

Also, it looks like a thin layer of over the counter 1% hydrocortizone cream helps too, but don't use it a bunch.

Good luck with it, and hoping for relief for you.

thanks... I am just desperately hoping I'll get myself so tired I can crawl into bed without freaking about the discomfort.

I don't know why it's hard for me to even consider going out after we've gone to bed. It just seems wrong somehow!

All those eating moldy rice in a tube shall love you and despair, Sean. Also? Go you, man! Scampi is yum.

It was deelish.

I coarsely chopped about 9 cloves of garlic, sliced up three scallions, and chopped up maybe three tablespoons worth of fresh flat leaf parsley. I also finely chopped up a large tomato and juiced three lemons.

After starting the linguini cooking, I melted some butter in a pan and began sauteing (sp?) the garlic, scallions and parsley. Once the garlic was brown, I threw in the lemon juice and tomato, and turned up the heat just a bit.

When the liquid was boiling, I threw in the shrimp (about a half pound of uncooked, cleaned, tail-off shrimp, rinsed and dried).

I let the shrimp cook for about three minutes or so, basically until they were pink on both sides (S said I may have cooked them, like, thirty seconds too long), then threw in some chopped fresh basil and fresh ground black pepper.

I served the shrimp and sauce over the linguini, and served it with steamed asparagus drizzled with lemon juice and sprinkled with fresh ground black pepper.

Here's a little more, and stuff you may have around

- ice pack for 5 to 10 minutes

- Asprin or other pain reliever

At least might give you enough comfort to get to sleep. I feel for ya. Mr. Jane once bought a detergent that did. not. agree.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Lee, you are shameless in the tat thing. I like that about you.

Nuh uh! I have shame! It's right over there, in my other purse.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

It's right over there, in my other purse.

With the pot?
