It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

Heh. See you soon, Sox!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

well ... yay for askye's grandmother - it sounds like this is a solution that's going to make everyone happier (and your grandmother safer). JZ, a lot of places pay more for putting up with jerks (cf law firms) and if you could see yourself tolerating this particular one, it might work out; if he's no worse than some of the people you deal with and the pay's higher, think about it. Suzi, have fun at the concert! SFistas, have fun with meara (but we get her back!). Susan and DJ - sorry you're having such a bad time. But you didn't do anything wrong, and you shouldn't feel stupid (you aren't - neither of you!).

Now ... off to see if I can get this issue of our journal to the printer by next week!

Thrive to spite them

Last night I had the strangest dream about a co worker proposing to me. Very weird. I ate the ring by accident.

askye, you're just daring us to analyze that dream...

Thrive to spite them

Oh, Sparky it was weirder than that and probably would be interesting to analyze but since I'm at work I'm afraid that with my luck someone will see what I'm doing and I'll get busted for being online and sharing my weird dream.

I dind't eat the whole ring, just the diamonds and then I was waving around a ring with an empty setting.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I mentioned this in Buffy, but I expand here.

Andi and I just bought the entire Buffy and Angel oeuvre from Best Buy for $14.99/season.

Unfortunately the "in stock" message for all 12 seasons was incorrect for the store.

I called their custserv number and was helped by a very pleasant lady who was frustrated by their software having to display one item at each store at a time, instead of having an aggregate screen. Harvey kept bugging me for food and scritches while on the phone, and she even heard him purring.

Good thing I pass by 3 Best Buy stores and the corporate offices on my way to and from work... Even then, I will end up stopping at two stores and season 4 of Buffy is coming by mail, for free.

Mostly lurking...

Timelies!

I was a bad girl and didn't take notes. Let me see if I can remember everything I wanted to comment on.

askye, I'm SO glad that there was good news on grandma.

JZ, I'm glad the interviews are going well. Crossing my fingers and sending SO MUCH ~MA that you'll hear something soon.

Oh, shit. There was more. Really. Damn. I love you all, and I did read! Oh! I want to see Suzi's hair! Um...there was other stuff. Oh, well. Consider yourselves all replied to.

I am a clutz. I fell UP the stairs this morning, and now have a nicely scraped up arm and knee. Go me!

Punishingly Intricate

We have a print of a Mary Cassat painting in our bedroom that has a blond haired toddler in it. Isaac insists that it's him. I of course agree with him.

My friend painted a picture (Shag style) of her family before she had babies and while their dogs were alive plus the monkey they always thought they should have.

Girl twin loves the painting and the other day when she was looking at it her dad asked her "Where's Jack?" (her brother) she pointed right at the monkey. So accurate!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

What a great painting!
