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.

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

I think I must have known that it was the plan for you guys to buy a place, but I hadn't realized it would be right away. That's so great!

Continuing job~ma for Joe, of course.

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.

Aimee, sort-of congratulations. Mostly best wishes for finding a job which will make you happier and give your family budget more room for new tiaras.

sj, sorry you are in pain.

askye, I think you are the cat's pyjamas. Not what you are after, but hey, don't give up.

I want:

  • Someone to give me my sheepskin on the strength of having done 3/4 of the academic work (and damn near killed myself doing so) plus working in the field for 8 years.

  • To be skinny.

  • To use the front porch as a porch instead of a store room.

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

I want:

Direction and focus
To have a clearer picture of what's going to happen in the next few months
A motorcycle

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I want:

To have certain investments finally pay off.
A good book deal.
More fun local gothy events to get dressed up for.

(There is, of course, LOTS more that I want, including to have my yearly review already written, and to get a REALLY GOOD review because of it. But those three are the big ones right now.)

Because books.

Ooh, I have to add a Thing I Want, because I just stubbed my toe on the big plastic storage box under the bed. Again.

  • I want to -- finally -- organize the twenty years' worth of pictures I've taken into albums.

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

I want:

  • this merger that is making my husband work crazy long hours to be done

  • my house to be clean

  • to know what to do next

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

I want:

  • to be able to catch up on sleep and stay that way

Another example of my Big Dorkiness: I have that iGoogle theme with the little fox who lives in the gazebo. Right now, he's doing laundry. I'm doing laundry. I'm all pleased to be in sync with the fox made of pixels, because he seems to have a pretty good life.

move out and draw fire

I want

    • Peace and quiet so I can do creative projects
    • To know how to fly a helicopter
    • my life to be settled

Hey Hec and JZ - Jennifer T is in Games mag this month about women-only game competitions. Apparently her win in 2005 dramatically raised the number of female competitors.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I want (like libkitty and others, I couldn't pare it down to three):

  • to write again

  • to act again

  • to find a job that lets me breathe financially

  • for Hec to find a job that doesn't eat his soul

  • health for my Buffistas

  • good good lives for all our babies, and may mine in particular get her shit together faster than her mommy did so she can actually enjoy her twenties while she's in them

  • champagne, a cupcake and a pony. I'd happily settle for just the cupcake, though.
