Mal ,'Objects In Space'
[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.
hey, random question. Is CSI/Police not allowed to turn on the lights? Seems they use flashlights an awful lot. (can you guess what I'm watching right now?)
My wank on that is that the flashlights in with dim ambient lighting help them find odd bits and pieces of shiny things that they might not otherwise see. Like if you drop your contact lens you turn out the light and use a flashlight.
Fay! Have I taught you nothing? I'm wearing (among other things) black glittery shoes and a top hat with pink and black roses. AND perfume that smells like chocolate and cupcakes. Dress to entertain yourself and the six year olds.

I am reassured. Also, as I decided to go ahead and wear the Medieaval Von Trapp ensemble to school today, I am very reassured that quite a lot of parents and colleagues have come up to me and complimented the dress. 'Course, you can't always believe people, but I think that my Extremely Gay Line Manager would definitely have made it clear if he didn't like it. And he very much liked it.
Yay!
(Plus, it's very comfortable & has lovely Big Pockets, which I really should try to incorporate into more of my outfits.)
JZ - kick ass!
Em slays me with the Supes/Batman. Bless! SO Buffista.
Omnis - oh, my dear, you do need to watch Smallville. For it is the Big Doomed Romeo/Juliet love story of how Clark Kent's gorgeousness and consistent lying bastardliness in the face of Lex's trust and friendship eventually turned Lex to the dark side of the force.
Clark/Lex. OMG. Epic, heartbreaking, and gay gay gay gay gay. (Also pretty like a fucking pretty thing.)
stops self before this becomes a full-blown essay in praise of Clex - still the only portmanteau term I can use without flinching.
Very interesting, all these insights into different people's experiences at school, btw.
Oh! IcecreamGuy just asked me if I'd fancy going to see The Tempest tonight. And I'd bloody love to - only it's a colleague's birthday bash, and she's a lovely woman, and has been v. kind to me, and she's very alone at the moment (well, in a with-her-2-kids-but-her-husband's-living-back-in-the-UK-and-only -coming-over-to-visit-when-he-can kind of way. Not that they're divorced or separated, just geographically challenged) and, you know, I don't want to blow her off.
Still - excellent idea, IcecreamGuy! Housepoint!
...I do hope that we get on. I mean, we don't need to fancy each other or whatever, but I'd like to make a new friend at least. Fancying optional.

you know, I thought that exact same thing when I was watching it tonight. Like when Nick was in the dorm room?
Who wouldn't fancy Fay?
JZ's interview went very well. They did the little dance of "benefits and a tour" which often indicates an impending offer.
Oh! We got our teaching assignments for next semester, and I'm teaching a class myself, rather than TAing! The class is Mathematical Ideas, which is a fun subject, but tends to get students with seriously lacking math backgrounds and/or math anxiety. Which means that, on the way to teaching what I'm supposed to teach, I know I'm going to have to go over basic algebra and geometry, and probably a lot of pre-algebra, too.

Oh, that's great news!

I want a photo of you in this dress. I must see it!

Who wouldn't fancy Fay?er. um. Ya, can't deny it. I fancy her. Sssshhhhh. Don't tell anyone.
OK, the Lex Clark thing. OMG. I've been watching for a few years now, and *never* caught the Gaydar on that one. So? Like? Clark fancies Lex? Hence the always saving him? He must be Bi tho. He has some hot g/f's. BUUTTT he's not one to consummate the relationship (till last week that is) (white fonted since I dunno if that hit the waves across the oceans.
The new Jones holiday sodas are weirding me out. For Halloween, they had a candy corn flavored soda, which was weird enough. For the winter holidays, they've got a Chanukah pack with latke, applesauce, chocolate coin, and jelly donut flavors. The Christmas pack has Sugar Plum, Christmas Tree, Egg Nog, and Ham.
Ham flavored soda. Latke flavored soda. Christmas tree flavored soda? This is all seriously wrong.
And all of them, includeing the Ham flavor, are kosher. I don't want to know what went into creating those flavors.
Well, Hil, remember bacon salt is kosher too!
But it's ham flavored soda! I really don't much care about kashrut at that point -- soda flavored like any meat is just wrong.
