Love isn't brains, children, it's blood, blood screaming inside you to work its will.

Spike ,'Sleeper'


Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.  

[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.

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

Fuck fuck fuck. I slept through my alarm. Missed teaching two classes.

I cannot deal with with. I have no idea how I'm supposed to deal with this. There's nothing in the TA training course for "Missed course through totally idiocy, two weeks in a row." (Though the one I slept thorugh last week was the Tuesday one, not the Monday ones, so at least it's not the same kids two weeks in a row.)

Hey. New board.

Thanks for all the girl wishes, guys. It's been helpful. I'm not really super broken up about it - I didn't have the opportunity to actually get to know her that well, really. It's just a shame that a potential possibility has to get missed. Even though it happens all the time.

I'm already back on the horse, though. Sent out four OKCupid messages this morning. I can do... something useful even when I'm home sick, apparently.

ETA: Shit, Hil, I'm sorry. That sucks.

I always find it weird when people (generally from America, I've found) call themselves 'Irish' or Italian'.

Often when it comes up that I'm half-French, most people ask what the other half is--when I say American, they get all confused.

But, like Kristin, I identify myself first and foremost as a New Englander since I was raised with that ethic, despite where my parents/grandparents were from.

I want Aimee to come over and sew with me!

Oh how I wish I had time for a long post on Southern identity! Alas, I am already behind this morning. Short version: We are deeply fucked up and that's why I love us.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

ION, Leif Garrett was on the Today Show this morning.

He was wearing eyeliner. I choose to take credit for that.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You have a minion now! Make her go get you something!!!!!
The minion is sleeping. Sleeping minions won't fetch coffee.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That's when you press the button that activates the remote-control shock-collar.

What?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm so sorry, Hil. Don't beat yourself up too much.

Sleeping minions won't fetch coffee.

That's so profound. Or maybe I need more coffee. Or more minions.

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

Poor Hil--Looks like it's time to get a more annoying alarm clock, and set it up across the room, so you have to get up to turn it off.

Mostly lurking...

Well, lovely. Just lovely.

I have no power. And, since I'm stealing wireless from a neighbor, I tend to think it's not an outage. And if it's a billing issue, I can't deal with it, because the bill is in my landlord's name. And my landlord isn't at work, and his office won't give me his cell number.

Grrrrr...
