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.

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

Of course, the card I just got six months ago, my first new card since that one? Came with a $25K limit.

Yeah, Discover keeps pre-approving me for a card with that limit, which freaks me out.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

sj, do you not have a chain or a deadbolt? Asshats.

Nope, and I am not going to bother to install one, since I hope we'll be giving our notice soon.

OMG. Did you kill them dead?? Imagine if you'd been in teh shower!! Can you install a chain thing, so that if you're home, they can't get in? Cause that's totally what I"d do, landlord or not. That is NOT COOL.

No. I knew they were coming, so it wasn't a big surprise, but still at least try the damn doorbell first.

People walking without announcement into my home are likely to receive a sword to the gut. Or a cat to the face.

What is even happening?

I'd think about taping a note on the door:

Realtors: Please ring bell and wait, before entering the apartment.

Sadly, I own neither. I really should get a sword.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Nope, and I am not going to bother to install one, since I hope we'll be giving our notice soon.

See, now, this is the point at which I would be installing one and start keeping it on the chain except when the boyfriend is expected home. Then I would start thinking about ways to get out of the appartment other than the door. Got any convenient windows that can readily be pulled down behind you? If for no other time than when you have moved all your stuff to your next place and are ready to drop off the key.

Trust my rage

Babies seem to get a ton of very tiny outfits because, well, they're so adorable and wee, and then they hit 6-9 months and nothing fits.

Very true. I dealt with this phase by going nuts at the second hand store.

Every well equipped home should have one. They won't go off accidentally, they don't need loaded, you're not going to hit the person across the street by accident--unless you're very strong as well as clumsy--and you can use it to open packages and prepare dinner in a pinch.

We actually have two doors, but a key doesn't exist for the other door.

Mostly lurking...

Ok. Waiting to hear from allergist directly (nurse thought I should talk to him). Not going to class. Canceled my spa day for tomorrow, because I'm pretty sure I'm going to be told to stay inside for a few days and do regular neb treatments (after a while, you just learn what they're gonna tell you). Also, just ordered a pizza, 'cause I have no more food in the house.

Now to figure out if I can order groceries without a debit card, since my new one hasn't come yet. I think Peapod has so you can set it up to come directly out of your checking account. Hopefully that is the case.
