Spike ,'Same Time, Same Place'
[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.
Poor Stephanie! That sounds terribly uncomfortable.
Oh, Nora. That's sucky.
Holy Shit! Check out the review of my the choral group my brother and SIL are in. They had their first (of a series) of Christmas concerts last night. And this review is amazing: [link]
Nora, I hate stuff like that. I had something similar when a friend was taking me home, but she wanted to run errands first, and I was very anxious to go get Ellie, but how can you complain, you know? I hope they hurry up!
vw, that's awesome! And how cool that your brother and SIL are mentioned, and so positively!
Too bad we can't hear their performance.
I am just so proud of them...I can't even describe it. This is what they love, and they're doing it. And it's hard work, because they don't make any money at this, so they all have day jobs too. But, they're getting out there and they're doing it and they're starting to make a name for themselves. Such a proud big sister!
Ugh Stephanie! I remember that. They should make desks with cutouts. Er. Or find a way to pull out your keyboard better. Hope you're feeling ok otherwise?
grr, the commuter rail in my neck of the woods is FUBAR'd and my nice neighbors have offered to take me to a relatively nearby subway line. However, these very nice neighbors are TAKING THEIR DAMN SWEET TIME ABOUT it and I'm frustrated. ugh.
I was wondering how you'd make out on the commute today. I got lucky - a train was sitting at Salem station when I got there (always a bad sign because I could see it sitting there when I was five minutes away), but it left not too long after it ordinarily would have anyway (now if only the driver hadn't blown past Swampscott and then had to back up). I think our commute's only going to be slightly more FUBAR than usual tonight - it's anybody Beverly or north of that who's SOL.
Thanks, Sox. I'm mostly fine - just tired. And this baby is more squirmy than I remember with Ellie.
I am ready to kill me some cow-workers up in here. STABBY MCFUCKIN STAB!
I may have to alter what is rapidly becoming my signature sound effect.
*Stabby McFuckin' stab stab!* *SPLURCHsqueeky*
No. No, Joe, no. Never, ever change your signature sound effect. I don't know about anyone else, but I am rapidly coming to depend on the peculiar consolation that *Stabby McFuckin' stab stab!* *SPLURCHsqueeky* provides.
Work today is going to be... super meh! Most people are working on a 10-hour/9-day schedule with every other Friday off, which will surely rock in coming years but doesn't work at all for households with two working parents and wee children. So it'll be very, very silent today. I plan to (a) purge the 80 billion files left behind by my predecessor's predecessor, (b) finish Matilda's stocking, and (c) drink all the coffee in the building.
Also possibly have a decent lunch. Yesterday was supposed to be the admin dim sum lunch, but for some reason it got changed to the admin overpriced yuppie bistro lunch (the place may actually have been called "b: a bistro").
Some people had flank steak approximately the size of an extra-large egg; some people had charred press sandwiches; I had something almost, but not entirely, unlike Greek salad (no cucumber, but yes potato? WTF?).
After our plates were cleared we all sat around sadly looking at each other and realized, all at the same time, that we were still INCREDIBLY FUCKING HUNGRY, so hungry we could have eaten each other, except we were around the corner from the Metreon instead of lost in the howling Arctic. We got dessert to stave off the worst of the pangs, and my thoughts on taking my first bite of cheesecake were, "Huh. This is pretty okay. I'd forgotten how much I like cheesecake. Gee, I wish I had some cheesecake."
Today, better lunch. Which shouldn't be hard. The bar is now set very, very low indeed.

No. No, Joe, no. Never, ever change your signature sound effect. I don't know about anyone else, but I am rapidly coming to depend on the peculiar consolation that *Stabby McFuckin' stab stab!* *SPLURCHsqueeky* provides.
Well, I meant that the sound effect WAS:
*Stabbity stab stab!* *SPLURCH!squeeky*
It could NOW be:
*Stabby McFuckin' stab stab!* *SPLURCH!squeeky*
In any incarnation there shall ever be *SPLURCH!squeeky*
