Zoe: Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing? Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.

Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?  

[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.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Man, it's true that age ain't nothing but a number.

"Old," however, is defined by how functional one is, IMO. And I say that because last night I PULLED A MUSCLE DOING YOGA. The whole point in doing yoga was to stretch my already-tight hamstrings. So I'm in the middle of Warrior I, and suddenly I feel my right hamstring, sorta behind my knee and thigh, go TOING!!!!

Owie. Fucking owie, man.

Ouch, Teppy. I'm wincing just reading that. I hope pulled is all it is.

We're gonna have to put you on the yoga DL, Tep.

Chatty!co-worker said that the only injury that would have a higher humiliation factor w/r/t the minimal amount of effort expended to injure oneself would be throwing out your back by reaching for the remote control.

I have to agree.

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

Ouch. The body just sits and waits for an opportunity to turn on you.

From the annals of the strange and unexplained:

I can water today until 10 a.m. I went out at 8 to turn on the sprinkler in the front before I went to the Y. I used this sprinkler Thursday and haven't touched it since. This sprinkler has a bright yellow screw-on cap so that it could be used in series. This morning, I went to turn on the sprinkler and the cap was gone. It screws on. It's bright yellow. WTF? The squirrels needed a Frisbee? There's someone walking through my neighborhood with an obsessive need to collect yellow plastic?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Squirrels are shifty characters, I tell you what.

Well, after 2 weeks of this UTI, I am finally going to go see someone and get some damned antibiotics and hope it hasn't turned into a kidney infection.

Wasn't there a football player who was out for a while because he hurt himself getting out of his recliner?

No kidney infection!

Baseball has a ton of weird injuries. Wade Boggs once pulled a muscle trying to get his boots off.

Mostly lurking...

Ok. I have some really brilliant friends, outside of the Buffistas.

One just sent me this: [link] Her boss made the mistake of going on vacation.
