Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Spike's Bitches 37: You take the killing for granted.  

[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.

move out and draw fire

"NO! Don't SING! I am SINGING the wheels on the bus. You can sing itsy bitsy spider later."

R and I get sshhed if we sing along with the TV or radio, or dance. But Mal will occasionally order renditions of "Pissy Pissy 'Pider." Or direct us in a round of "Row Row Row Your Boat" : "Mommy - BOAT! Daddy - BOAT! Mommy - BOAT!" etc.

What station was that? I love it!

94.7 Also, the radio market here stinks up the joint. IMHO.

As far as I know there is still a little yellow crayon horsie on the wall of my old room. No matter how many coats of paint, he always shines through.

When we moved out of the first house I lived in, I was 7 or so. As the movers took the paintings down, they discovered crayon drawings behind all the paintings a 7yo could reach. My parents were actually proud - they figured since they painted stuff that went on the walls, it was only fair - but a little amused that I'd "hidden" it.

"I got your email on my phone. You said to email, but I cant' send email from the phone..."

goes all technoshocky

No, wait. To paraphrase Toddson, the tech won't make you any more clueless than you already are.

My company is updating the phones here so that we'll be able to pick up our voice messages via e-mail. I don't know how that'll work yet, but we'll be getting trained on all the intricacies of the new system this fall.

I can crack my neck now

I've got the wiggins just thinking about it. My fear of chiropractors is second only to dentists.

Tangentially, when I was at the PAX convention recently, I attended one of the bigger talks where it has apparently become tradition for all the attendees to crack their knuckles on the count of three. The sound verges on indescribable, but it was like hearing an army of gerbil skeletons falling down a small flight of stairs.

It was wiggins-able.

Oh, god, some moron asked the room to do that at the Mythbusters DragonCon panel. Ew.

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

What were the Mythbusters like? I loves them.

It was the build team, not the main guys, so Kari, Tory, and Grant rather than Adam and Jamie. But they're great. Both years they've brought blooper reels, and they tell great stories.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ok, now I *really* want to go next year. Though I'd have to leave Joe behind. He'd run away with Kari.

My husband has a massive crush on Kari. I think this shows excellent taste on his part.

Him and 75% of the guys at the con. Apparently she's engaged now, though.

Only 75%?

How many of the women?
