[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.
Jilli, have you tried Blavod? I saw an article in the paper about Halloween cocktails and it looked pretty cool.
Cashmere, it tastes kinda like printer toner. I still have a bottle of it that I have made exactly one drink with.
So, I have swirly bats inked on my left arm! There will be photos in a couple of days.
Yay swirly bats!
On the other hand I'm not quite sure how I got from the passenger seat to fleeing The Dark Lord so maybe your dream car has an ejector seat.O man. First you let everyone know that I'm a nice guy. Now everyone knows about the ejector seat! There are no secrets left about me!
ION, I haz tickets to Florida! Woot! Arriving in Orlando on the 8th, leaving the 12th. Red eye out, early-morning-PITA-to-wake-up for the ride back. This will be the closest thing to a vacation in about 6 years or so. Tho, the whole time is with family, so it could be very nerveracking.
Daisy, you're going to Budapest??? That is so cool! I'm jealous.
I am exhausted and sore. But my living room and bedroom are painted (the bedroom was kinda halfass, though--I didn't tape the ceiling, just got as close as I could and figured it was good enough. Got some paint on the ceiling, too). I did THREE COATS on the damn yellow wall, and it was still imperfect. Used the whole gallon of paint. BOO GLIDDEN, YOU SUCK. Baer paint was much better. Only did one coat in the bedroom.
Still haven't painted the guest room.
Am a little annoyed that none of the colors came out like what I thought they would. Mostly the yellow stupid glidden crap, though. The orange-brown got a little closer as it dried. And I think the robin's egg blue in the bedroom was just my bad in looking at the colors. Ah well.
Best of luck with Ellie, Steph. That sounds very scary, especially the knowing someone who had their child have it, part.
I have not been eating particularily well, but not tons of crap, either. And I've been walking a LOT. But no gym. Hmm.
Are fishnets an exception to the general rule of "no pantyhose with open toed shoes"?
No. The only exception is grudgingly granted for those weird pantyhose that are toeless. And that is very grudging.
House-ma, Cashmere!
OK, I have to brag a little:
This morning at church we got to give a big round of applause to this guy: [link]
(Phil Mote, the first scientist mentioned.)
The pastor called up a group of people who are going down to Mississippi to help rebuild Katrina-damaged homes, and Phil was among them. Pastor Dan said something like, "And there's the tiny matter of a Nobel Peace Prize," and we all clapped and clapped.
Granted, thousands of scientists shared the award, but that's still not the kind of thing you get to do every day.
that is VERY cool Susan!
Much house~ma to Cashmere!
Susan, that is wicked cool!
It's early...gonna talk to myself until someone else shows up.
So, it turns out that I used historical present tense, for the most part, on my last annotated bibliography, without even knowing I was supposed to. GO ME!
And, no, I'm not just copying and pasting from my previous AB. I'm just using it to not reinvent the wheel. There are a few articles that I'm still using for this project (the last AB was a preliminary look at articles for this project), so I'm seeing what I said then and doing it better with my extensive new knowledge on ABs. It's very exciting. Don't you wish you were me? I've got five of 8 required entries done. I actually think I'm going to have nine entries. Going above and beyond! That sounds a bit like a quote from Toy Story.
Ok. Someone please come save me from this!
I'd come and save you, vw, but I feel as if I need saving myself. Work is going to be fun this week - lots to do, and I'm supposed to be observing a class all week. Yikes.
