I wonder if there are cow sentries to keep watch for danger the way there are in other animal species?

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Fuck?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
So, if I went in and said, "I want a choppy shag" - I'd get the look I'm after?

Well, The Times calls it "Unexpected Turbulence." If it's The Guardian, it's "Loose Screw", and if it's The Sun then it's "PHWOAAR!!"

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I had the opportunity to say in my best Oldskool Eddi Izzard manner 'Ou est la singe? Where is the monkey? Oui! La singe est dans l'arbre. The monkey is in the tree.' Which still makes me giggle.
La singe est sur la branche.
La singe est....disparu! Because the monkey would fuck off!

Happy Birthday, Ailleann!
I've got a ton of grading to do. And the professor I'm working with seems to expect it to get done a lot more quickly than I can get it done. But, on the other hand, once this grading is done, I'll be done with everything for this semester. (And, I'll be done with the needy clingy student who's been driving me nuts.)

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Am home. Am slightly snockered.
Airport run with Big Boss went well. She thinks she has my Program Manager and Contract Manager reined in. Time will tell. She was EXTREMELY supportive and complimentary of the way I have dealt with all this crap. Nice to have my management happy with me.
So darned tired. MUGS to ALL!!!! Glittter and chocolate too!!!

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
You can choose anything you like for drinking my share, but keep in mind that I really love appletinis. Maybe I should Kristin in charge of drinking those :).
I think I should join Kristin in appletinis, for the good of, well, everyone. Plus, it looks like I have to work Saturday and I've never had one, so it's really perfect, right?
And Fay, if you're still here, or really even if you're not, have I ever told you how much I love you? My day gets better every time I see one of your posts. You're a perfect example of someone being interesting, fun and kind, all at the same time.

Oh, dear God, it's funny 'cause it's true. I am living every Eddie-speaks-Crap-French moment, I swear. But I reckon that it's all to the good, because the fact that I am making a gibbering tit of myself in a valiant attempt to communicate, despite the sheer awfulness of my French, is surely modelling that it's better to have a crack at communicating than not. Plus she gets to feel good about being much better at French than me. So it's all good, and she's getting palpably braver and more inclined to have a crack at saying things in English, which is good. But, really, I'm all:
"Right kids, thumbs up if I explained it well enough and you understand. Thumbs down if I didn't explain properly, and you're baffled. Thumbs to the side if you KIND of get it. Okay, cool, that's about what I thought. Right....er, [French Kid's Name], er, maintenant nous sommes ecriyer la...er...story de les trois petite...er...pigs...er...cochons, possibly? Possiblement? Cochons? Oui? Oui! Cool! Er, bien. So, er, le story de les Trois Petite, or possibly Petit, Cochons, et le Big Bad Wolf. Loup, possibly. Le grand mal loup. Or possibly mechant? Or something like that?"
painful pause.
"Est ce'que vous comprends? Un peu? Maybe?"
painful pause.
"Er, [insert name of other French speaking kid in class, who's being a little star at doing the translation thing, but IS a boy, and thus doesn't really want to be glued to the new girl 24/7], would you mind just running that by her in proper French? Please? Sorry."
Bless him. (He's the same wee boy who showed up for our performance of Whoops A Daisy Angel in jeans sans underwear, having forgotten to put his undies on after his bath. When I tried to suggest he go onstage commando as a dancing angel, we very nearly had tears. In the end he was an angel with secret jeans under the robe. Bless him. Cutest kid EVAH. Outcutes Ray, even.)
And Fay, if you're still here, or really even if you're not, have I ever told you how much I love you? My day gets better every time I see one of your posts.
blushes FOREVER.
Right back at ya! Although, being painfully British, I must now hide.
