Cordelia ,'Lessons'
[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.
They made me sign a paper saying something to the effect that I had refused/denied to take a pregnancy test and I wouldn't hold the surgery center responsible if it turned out I was pregnant and there was damage done.
This, at least, seems reasonable. They have documented CYA. But not insulted me by implying that I'm lying or too dumb to know. (And let's not even bring up the one that Hil [I think] had to pay for, on what I assume is not a giganto salary). Wackiness.
I have a new hero: Barbara Holland, author of The Joy of Drinking.

Booze, she writes, is "the social glue of the human race." As soon as humans stopped wandering around looking for berries and settled down to raise crops, they started creating wine and beer and, not coincidently, civilization.
"Probably in the beginning, we could explain ourselves to our close family members with grunts, muttered syllables, gestures, slaps and punches," she writes. "Then, when the neighbors started dropping in to help harvest, stomp, stir and drink the bounty of the land, after we'd softened our natural suspicious hostility with a few stiff ones, we had to think up some more nuanced communication, like words. From there, it was a short step to grammar, civil law, religion, history and 'The Whiffenpoof Song.' ''
eta: My complete lack of formatting ability might indicate that I have been drinking, even though so far I've had nothing stronger than Diet Coke.
Speaking of books. There's already more than one fake *ahem* out there claiming to be "Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows".
Sheesh.
Wah. Didn't get the house I applied for, so there's $100 gone. There was another family applying, almost exactly the same except no animals.
Also, Mal is running a temp of 101, so I may be staying home with him tomorrow. Good for the third week of the new job.
Wish me perfect-house-and-soon-ma.
Apparently Universal intends to market Evan Almighty to people who might have read the Bible. [link]

I can't see the Nora picture! *pout*
Raq, how frustrating. I'm so sorry.
Oh, Ginger. My faith in humanity is not increasing.
Kristin, I'm done for the day; you can have my motivation.

Iiiiinnnnteresting.
My friend who works at a church had mentioned the ArkAlmighty site - she's received info about it, but I don't think she realized it was related to the movie.
Iiiiinnteresting.
Here, Kristin.
vw and others, I got a forbidden page too, but a second try got me into Nora picture.
Thanks, Burrell! YAY! Pretty Nora! Pretty family!
Oh, I forgot to mention. I got my hair completely chopped today. The back may be the shortest it's ever been. I got it cut at a cheap place, though, so there will be no pictures until I style it.
