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.

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

Another story in the continuing saga of people who are asshats:

You may recall that my sister was hit by a car a couple of weeks ago. While her injuries were mostly bumps and bruises, her doctor told her to stay out of work for a week. She hit her head on the concrete and has had a headache ever since, so the doctor has ordered a cat scan. There's an ambulance bill.

My sister was crossing the street at a crosswalk with a walk light. The woman was making a turn when she hit her. Now my sister has to hire a lawyer to get this woman and/or her insurance company to pay for any of this. The woman's stance is that she did nothing wrong, because she had the green light. By definition, my sister had the green light too, and pedestrians have the right of way.

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

That's crazy, Ginger. Didn't the driver get a ticket? That seems totally indefensible to me.

move out and draw fire

The woman's stance is that she did nothing wrong, because she had the green light.

Dude. She HIT SOMEBODY. The light could have been fucking fuschia, a person in your way trumps everything.

I mean, legally also, of course, but it's basic common sense that you look where the hell you are going and DON'T HIT PEOPLE WITH YOUR CAR.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

does minor victory lap

Buffalo's winning! Go Sabres!

Ginger, I think that woman is due for a smiting.

That's so ridiculous, Ginger. Of course your sister had the right of way. That's the trade-off. You don't have a car around you protecting you, you get the right of way.

Also, my mom and her partner get into town tonight. I expect all will go well, but could use any extra ~ma or prayers or whatever that we don't all spontaneously combust.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

sj, so sorry about the rude 911 operator. That's just ridiculous. Equally ridiculous...no, even MORE ridiculous...is the stupid driver's excuse for hitting Ginger's friend. WTF? No bad juju vibes for libkitty and fam.

I just got home and collapsed on the couch. In the morning, when I have failed to move an inch from this spot, someone will say, "Well she collapsed on the couch. That was her first mistake."

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Also, DOES THIS MEAN YOU'RE FENCING AGAIN?! YAYAYAYAYAY!!!!

Not at this moment (I mean, yeah, literally not at *this* moment, b/c I'm on the couch with a laptop on my lap; but also not at this larger, more general moment, as in, May 2007). But I'm verrrrrrra seriously leaning towards going back. I just want my exercise to be FUN, you know? And the treadmill is not fun.

Fencing, though? Awwwww yeah. SO much fun.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Fencing, though? Awwwww yeah. SO much fun.

Awww, yeah. And yay!

In other news, I'm back from a lovely evening with family flea, in the course of which I learned the following:

  • I HAVE to take my shoes off.
  • All four Candyland people have to go on the board, but the other two are just there to watch.
  • I may win at Candyland, but only after Casper has already won first.
  • There is lettuce in the garden. In fact, a great many things that are not peas are "lettuce".
  • If you pull the cat's tail, the cat will turn around and bop you. (Note that I was not the one who pulled the cat's tail, but then, I'm not sure Dillo actually learned it, so we'll call it even.)
  • I can stay at Casper's house for a few days and if I don't have my toothbrush it's okay because I can borrow one of hers. (I don't think this plan was actually okayed by flea, but I'm flattered by the invitation nonetheless. Casper is so invited to my next party.)

What is even happening?

Casper is the hostess with the mostess. I forget everything else I was going to say after catching up with 100 posts, except that I think Teppy could rock that hairstyle to which she linked.
