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.

What is even happening?

What did you buy, Ginger? Scott's been dreaming over catalogues since January.

Guess who managed to climb up onto the kitchen counter this evening? Toy to kids' table to countertop, nearly giving her father a heart attack. I was out, thank goodness, but I don't recall giving birth to a freakin' daredevil.

EEEEEK! Olivia, cut that out. I was figuring I'd read an Owen story. She's too little.

Cindy, that sounds like an awesome day and some awesome prezzies. And I remember Construction Worker Spike!

Thanks, Cindy. I do actually think that would be an interesting show, if not too terribly topical.
I always get sad for Brian Williams. It's like he was too talented and it broke his brain. That was awesome. I never saw him around again, after the job was done. That was back before the Spuffies got out of control, and it was fun to be a redemptionista and coo over the pretty bedhead of Intervention. Ahh. Spike.

Oh, is there ANYTHING quite like Etta James singing At Last? I think not.

I have to shut off this pc and go be with my family. I've been camped down cellar for a couple of hours, now. The kids should have been in bed nearly 20 minutes ago.

Thanks for being part of a lovely birthday, Bitches.

Bye, Cindy. Go to bed, Cindy's kids.

How do seed catalogues maintain their awesome power to make us crazy? i can't even tell you how many packets of seeds I bought at the drug store last weekend and not only haven't planted yet, but have already misplaced, somehow.

I think it's time for another installment of "silly things Kristin's students write," don't you?

Here's one gem:

"I needed this for my journey, so I cunningly put the sword in my back pocket."

(I wrote, "That's a big pocket!" next to that line.)

What did you buy, Ginger?

Obscure tomatoes. A rosemary that's been grown in North Carolina. A new kind kind of basil that's not supposed to go to seed as much. French tarragon. A weeding tool. That's on top of last week's investment in tomato cages.

Heirloom tomatoes, or something new? That basil sounds exciting. I can never stay on top of mine enough to keep it from bolting without cutting it down too far.

The landlord plugged up the last of the closet holes today. Keeping my fingers crossed that this keeps out the smoke from now on. Other than that we went to the movie's today, ate leftovers, and watched a bunch of Buffy S3 episodes. It was a good Sunday.

Cindy, it sounds like you had a really lovely birthday. I'm glad. You most certainly deserved to have a happy day after all the sick.

Yikes! Poor Christopher. Olivia sounds like quite the handful.

Oh, is there ANYTHING quite like Etta James singing At Last? I think not.

Nope. That song never fails to make me teary.

Dinner at Ginger's house this summer! I love fresh herbs and tomatoes in the summer. There is nothing like it. Could you tell me what kind of basil that is? I had an awful trouble growing basil last summer.

Well, I seem to have missed the actual day for Cindy, but I'm a persistant sort:

Many happy returns of the day, Cindy! I hope you had a great 40th!

I'll join you at 40 at the end of the month.

Bloomers sound so nice for cleaning. I've been thinking of actually getting a nice Easter dress, but bloomers kind of look more fun.

Today, I was a church and noticed that a friend had gotten a lovely piece of fleece that she was using as a baby blanket, with a dark background and skulls and other designs all over it. I knew it was exactly her style, so congratulated her for finding it and asked where (JoAnn's. Go figure.). She seemed very disappointed, at first, that I wasn't disgusted by the skulls. I almost felt bad for not being disapproving. I think she got over it and was kind of tickled eventually.

Here's the basil: [link]

I have verticulum wilt in my soil, so I'm always looking for disease-resistant plants. Then I also try ones lauded for taste. They usually last until midsummer before the evil wilt gets them.

Thanks, Ginger. I love the name of the basil plant.
