'Out Of Gas'
[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.
My apartment has no hot water this morning. It is distressing, because my day of complete productivity at Starbucks really stalls without a shower, and it's too cold for a cold shower. It's 48°! Yay Autumn!
Tonight, I'm going to a Bollywood dance party. I'm kind of excited about it.
Your tiny Thai student sounds adorable, Fay. And that lunch sounds good (I'm hungry). As does your boss. Good bosses are awesome.
A Bollywood dance party sounds cool.
I took the test and was strongly visual and kinesthetic, but reading about them I realize I'm a touch more kinesthetic than visual. My auditory learning skills were about nil. No wonder I like message boards. I can feel the words as I type them, and see everyone else's response.
According to the picture on this page: [link] I am more right-brained than left-brained. I don't think I believe that.
Ooh, Bollywood party sounds fab, Gris!
Is that going to be the dancing lady? Weirdest thing, that - I had a crack an hour or two ago, and initially she was totally turning clockwise - and then there was this odd sense of dislocation/inversion/whatever, and I realised that obviously she was really turning anticlockwise. And then I couldn't get back to clockwise again.
...must
...stop
...eating
...candied cantaloup.
It's...I can feel the sugar fucking with me. Ngah. And yet it sits there being all fruity and tempty.
Must stop.

...okay. And on a related note, do we think that candied canteloup or preserved plums would be the best thing with which to flavour my newly-purchased stolli? I'm leaning towards the preserved plums, myself - I think they're plums. The sign said peaches, but they look far more plum-like, and they're quite wonderfully sweet/sour and tangy. Or should I go for cinnamon? My own OTFlavour for DIY flavoured vodka. Or possibly Masala Chai? But that's a rank outsider - the main contenders at present are cinnamon or plum.
Hmm.

I had the exact opposite happen.
I babysat the backlot tram tour part of Halloween Horror Nights last night. It was wet. Very, very, very wet. I haven't gotten that wet and miserable in a long time. I think ND got wetter, by the end of the night.
Wet.
Gracie passed her test at the mechanic's this morning. I can haz car!
Cinnamon AND plum, Fay! WOuldn't those go together well?
I'm with meara. Put two great flavors together!
I seriously can't make her go counterclockwise, no matter what I do. She's always clockwise. I'm a math teacher! I should have no problem being left brained!
Anybody got pictures of awesome Bollywood-style costumes I might be able to cheaply emulate? There's a discount men's store next door to this Starbucks that contains a fair selection of crazy shirts/blazers/things.
ETA: Also, is google DOWN for anybody? I can't access any Googly things, including gmail or google chat. Everything else is working fine. Very odd.
My Gmail is working just fine, Gris.
