Spike: Lots of fuss over one girl. Other things to do around here--important things. Angel: You know that whoosh thing you do when you're suddenly not there anymore? I love that.

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.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

It's an insanely difficult choice, and one I haven't made yet. My friend and I realised that I'm the heroine in a romance novel, with this choice between York and Cardiff. York is the nobleman, a bit frayed around the edges, but with excellent breeding and stature. Quirky, though, with a bit of a dark side. And Cardiff is the always-cheerful blokey dude, frank and open and welcoming. Not as prestigious, but there's just something about him...

The first time I read this (in COMM) I was at work –high school- and we have NetNanny (which, BTW, anyone know a better program? We’re shopping around for one…).

NetNanny decided that “heroine” was too scandalous a word for students to read; it edited it to “. . . I realised that I'm the ****** in a romance novel, with this choice between York and Cardiff.”

I was all, huh? Bitch? Whore? Harlot? Cocksucker? WHAT IS SA?

And then I get home and it’s HEROINE? HEROIN is a drug. Not heroine. W.T.F.

Also….”realised?” SA’s getttin’ all Britified…

ION, today some of my students started looking up stuff for our suicidal poetry unit.

Quotes:

“What is UP with Goths anyway?”

“You are weird, Ms.G.” (After showing them the frontispiece for Jilli’s website (GCS).)

“All my “suicidal poetry” searches keep leading me to Christian blogs. Is there a correlation?”

I'm picking up shoes after work

I read this as “I'm puking up shoes after work.” I blinked a couple of times, and thought, Wow, she’s REALLY sick. Lucky, but ill.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

P-C, I am 8 years younger than your mom.

Wuh oh, does this mean you're going to start guilt-tripping me about not e-mailing you every day?

Sorry your mom's frustratin you, P-C, but she is sick and that makes the wacky go to 11.

Yeah. It just fucking sucks because it leaves me in a lose-lose position. I don't want to talk to her in this state, but if I don't talk to her, it means I don't care.

Our wings are not tired.

Being 5 years older than your mother I can assure you that sanity is just around the corner. I was sooooo much crazier at 48. She'll be all normal and respectful any day now. believe the lie believe the lie

Yikes, I'm sorry for your poor sister, Ginger. Not being able to call her and talk must be difficult.

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

We've had another round of email-email-phone-email-email, and my sister is now home with some of the good drugs. I suspect she's going to feel a lot worse tomorrow.

Oh, I meant to say: what a circuitous route to talk to your sister, Ginger! It's like an O. Henry story with you with no voice and her not able to use her e-mail, but better because she is basically okay. I don't think anyone getting hit by a car in an O. Henry story gets to be okay.

Yay Technology. I got a call on my home phone with a recorded message from the city police to be on the lookout for an 85 yo man with Alzheimer's that had wandered off from his home. (about 5 blocks from my house) Then about 15 minutes later another recorded call that the gentleman had been located. I love that they can do this.

Bamblebert Fishtibuns

Which, of course, needs to be pronounced in very proper British accent.
