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 just pulled a muscle in my back. Hiccuping.
In silver lining news, the pain was enough of a startle that I seemed to have stopped hiccuping.
This is why you should not lounge in complicated positions. Or, you know, let me run my own body.

Stuff was definitely going on. But I don't think she or Emmett were in serious danger. (As opposed to unserious danger? I think wariness was warranted. Being smart and safe. Not necessarily driven from her home.)
I don't mean to discount her fears. But bolting is how she deals with fear and it's costing him. It's short term. She'll get into a new place. It'll resolve. I'm just frustrated that he's suffering because it's the only way she can deal with this circumstance.

Do we need to revoke your I'm An Adult license?
Maybe.
Does revoking my license mean I can eat Nutella from a spoon?

Eating Nutella from a spoon is within Adult guidelines. Revoking your license means you can eat it with your fingers. If, however, you are eating it off of someone else's fingers, that goes back to the Adult realm.

No, it means ita's not-boyfriend stands over you and makes you eat sensible food.
Wait! Are you dating Brock Sampson?

2 a.m. and I'm wide awake, which is okay, since I don't have work tomorrow. The Boy just left and I'm seriously considering making an ice cream run.
GRAETERS!!
Graeters is long since closed for the night, unfortunately. It's UDF or nothing. Fortunately, UDF is 5 minutes from my apartment. Which is making me wonder -- why am I still sitting here typing when I could be getting ice cream?

Whoo, look at Teppy go on the late night ice cream assault team.
Meantime, I'm exploring the wonders of digital cable. I've got literally hundreds of channels. This is basically my entertainment budget. They keep adding channels and I wonder: "There's a military channel?"
I know that at various times certain cable channels survived by endlessly rehashing WWII. But still. There's a channel with shows called "Weaponology: Sniper Rifles."
Also there's a Soap channel which apparently has Friday recaps of All My Children, Days of Our Lives, General Hospital and a couple others.
See, I spend a fair amount of time tracking down super obscure movies that aren't shown on regular cable and I'm boggled that it's somebody's full-time job to do DOOL recaps and histories of sniper rifles.
WTF? Where are my Joy Division and Cramps videos?
This is entirely coeval with my bogglement at the size of NASCAR fandom. I understand that people follow car racing. I can't help but boggle at how many follow it. Roller derby makes more sense to me.
eta: This post posted in full knowledge that there are Soap and NASCAR fans hereabouts. Not a provcation just a notation on the difference between perceived culture and the evidence of actual culture.
