Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History  

[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.

Man, I knew that putting off doing my taxes this year would come back to bite me in the ass. I'm going to owe the Feds over $800. Which is funny, because I don't SEEM TO MAKE ANY DAMN MONEY. What. the. hell.

Now I have to have a long talk with myself about the F2F. And, you know, groceries. Damn damn damn.

I ought to do laundry, too. Don't think it's happening tonight, though.

Somewhat strange question, sparked by a recent conversation with my mother: is it polite/appropriate to ask someone you just met (and might consider dating) what they do for a living? Or what college they went to? (My sister and I had the same response to this question. My mother thought our response was very weird.)

I needed to do laundry tonight in order to have clean workout stuff for the gym tomorrow. feh. I won't be able to wear a sports bra tomorrow, and that will suck.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I consider those perfectly normal and harmless questions.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I pretty much ask anyone those types of questions - as a place to start conversations.

We just watched "big Brother". I like the fact that sensai was responsible for the intruders appearance

Hmm. What my sister and I both said is that we would wait for something like that to come up in conversation, maybe somewhere around the second date -- asking upfront seems too much like asking "how much do you make?" and we don't want to give the impression that we consider that too important. My mother thought we were nuts, and was very puzzled that my sister and I gave practically the same answer separately without ever discussing it with each other.

I hate being asked those questions by anyone, mainly because I hate trying to come up with the answers for them, but I think they're considered fairly harmless first date questions.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It would depend on how we met, I think. 'What do you do?" and "Where'd you go to school?" are pretty standard getting to know you questions at parties and such, but they're easy to bypass in other settings and once you're passed that I-don't-know-you-at-all stage waiting for them to come up in conversation seems more natural.
