This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

[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.

I like the second one Nora. Don't be afraid to ask for what you deserve. If they say no, you haven't lost anything.

Yesterday was definitely on the list - my boss was in a pissy mood (didn't take it out on me, bless him), one of our staff got in a super-energetic state and kept coming up with ideas that she needed my input to make work AND bombarding me with e-mails about scheduled things ... that were months in advance AND were inaccurate. bleah.

Fresh out. I recommend the frittata with a side of sloth.

Or, if you start out with sloth, you won't have the motivation for anything else. (Remember this when you decide to work your way through the Seven Deady Sins.)

Ugh, I hate this! But I think I have to do it. I always get hip to the negotiating game way too late.
