Gris, Trudy and I are discussing plans right now. AIFG! What time does your play get out, and what part of town will you be in?
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.
Did that happen to you?
Yes. Oddly enough, 911 won't send anyone to help you deal with dead rats at 2 a.m.
Yeah, I seem to recall your bizarre fortunately-unfortunately period there, Gris.
ION of smell, or lack thereof, the dog just came back from $90 (and 3 1/2 hours) worth of pampering and primping. Meanwhile I haven't had a haircut in six months. What is wrong with this picture?
Well, I'm fairly certain, even with split ends, you don't smell like a dog...
This is true. Plus I haven't been leaving great clumps of the stuff all over.
It's probably pointless and a waste of time, isn't it, to call out someone on a writers' loop for being a pedantic, condescending snob who thinks her country (England) is utterly superior to mine when it comes to literature, intellect, and all-around civilization? Because it's pissing me off.
ETA it's not that I don't love England, because I do. This woman just can't complain about anything in the publishing world without slurring "Yanks" and our tastes, and she's even playing the "it's called English for a reason" brand of prescriptivist grammar.
Gah!
Okay, I can pick up my Passport on Monday, so that's good. Got things prepped for what the folks need in Beverly Hills tonight. Had a quick cup of coffee with Kristin this afternoon. I have clothes packed for my trip to Orlando. I'm now frantically getting the rest of my stuff together for the trip so that I can get in the car and head to LAX in an hour.
Stop this ride, I think I want off.
Tell her it would be more correctly, etymologically speaking, to refer to the language as bastardized French-Angleish
It's very tempting, believe me.
"And yet we're the ones spreading it all over the world now, huh?" is always fun.
What is wrong with this picture?
At least you don't need someone to express your anal glands?
