Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

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.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

ION, the Blue Angels are practicing for their weekend show here. I'd forgotten about it, and they're louder here than they were at any of my previous workplaces anyway. I'm still trying to crawl back into my skin, having jumped out of it the first time they roared past.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yay, Steph!

And if you can afford a condo in Emeryville I will be freaking jealous, because my husband and I can't afford anything bigger than a studio there.

I don't really know what I can afford. Like you said, there's all those payments and fees and big words that add up to a lot. And I don't want to feel like I have no money at all to spend on such frivolities as food and entertainment.

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

Yay heartbeat!

Sweet bike!

Exclamation points!!

Mostly lurking...

So, I just called and rescheduled my appointment with woman who has rescheduled me four times. She gave me shit. Twice. I'm having second thoughts about working with her.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

WHat lovely news, Stephanie, thanks for sharing it with us!

Sweet ride, Juliana. Keep the rubber side down.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I don't really know what I can afford.

I suggest sitting down with a financial advisor. Then you could work out what is comfortable for you and what you can afford.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

For all your bridge falling nightmares, I give you our crumbling infrastructure.

“The American Society of Civil Engineers issues annual rankings of the state of the nation’s infrastructure and most of the grades are C and D,” said Michael O’Rourke, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
