"Up the duff"? Please to translate for the insomniac Midwestern Americans? Because I'm thinking it can't possibly be a metaphor for what I think it's a metaphor for.
Verily, verily doth it mean knocked up. Bun in the oven. In the Alien way.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Much amused at Tep not knowing "up the duff". Funny what phrases miss the Buffista International Hivemind.

The horror movie talk is apt. I'm still in my damned marathon of horror movies. I'm currently watching Friday the 13th part 6. Amazingly this is for work.

Skipping to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is Jen K's birthday. Also, IIRC, she shares her birthday with meara.
Happy birthdays to the both of them! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
I know some people, if you know what I mean.
tempting, ita. very tempting. my dad's already said he's going to beat the crap out of him the next time he sees him.
I can't imagine having someone cosign for you and not be totally careful of them
agreed. i mean, dad cosigned for me so i could get a new car and i've been extremely careful that it is always paid on time. i would never think of telling someone that any fees that happened were their responsibility because they were so stupid as to cosign for me. the sheer balls astounds me.
happy things. happy things. i know! i went and looked at and bought this last night. it's gorgeous!!
happy birthday, birthday folks!!
welcome, BigDuluth!!

Happy birthday, meara and the elusive Jen! meara, I hope the year brings great things. IMO the 30s are very good.
I arrived at work to find that someone, presumably Systems, seems to have stripped my computer overnight. Everything that was on my desktop is gone, including my shortcuts to applications and files, as are all my Firebox bookmarks, plugins, etc. I had no warning this was going to happen. Luckily I didn't have anything important saved to the desktop only. I have sent in a politely indignant ticket, but I am getting more and more pissed off the more I try to accomplish and discover things are NOT THERE. The bookmarks! Work-related ones - I have no idea what the url is to get into the dashboard of the blog I manage, for example. WTF, Systems? YOU FAIL.
