Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Aww. Take it. I have plenty of squee to spare.

I'm so psyched we get to drag you around on Friday!

JZ has a job interview Friday afternoon, so at some point it's just going to be you and me and Matilda.

move out and draw fire

ARGH! I had the office to myself so I turned the effing Bill O'Reilly off. That lasted 5 minutes.

Fleeing now.

(Also, just got my tickets. 20.5 hours of flight time. Oh god.)

Our wings are not tired.

Ugh. I think I would endure 20.5 hours of flight before Bill O'Reilly though. I have my limits of patience.

Mal's not the only one you should consider doping for the flights.

Dear [educational non-profit]: "I'm seeing some unusual data - what did you do wrong?" Is. Not. A. Helpful. Email. {erg: should I have posted this rant in tech?} Blarg. Need more coffee. And a mallet. I want to be a writer again, now please.

Kristin T - another poet to check out for your gang is Lynda Hull - The Only World. My students (albeit 9 years ago) loved the change from purely confessional ... especially as it was still dark matter. She didn't publish a lot before she died (Ghost Money and Star Ledger), but it's beautifully formed urban stuff.

Sparky - DH last night said "well, why don't you go to the F2F?" He's at interviews down your way both tonight (5pm) and tomorrow afternoon (1pm)

"well, why don't you go to the F2F?"

I always did like your DH.

My DH and I will be in your neck of the woods tonight, having dinner with a hang gliding friend.

Coffee sounds like a good idea.

We're going to try the tapas place you suggested, I think.

eta: someone needs to buy these boots, because I can't, even at $45, when the store won't carry my size. [link]

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Dear "support" center:

I sent you an e-mail explaining why the instructions weren't working for me. In response, you sent me the instructions again. If the instructions worked, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
