No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Spike's Bitches 39: Cuppa Tea, Cuppa Tea, Almost Got Shagged, Cuppa Tea...  

[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.

Punishingly Intricate

But only if you went in to the election office, got the absentee ballot, and hand-delivered it to them. Um ... absentee?

Not in MD. You needed to request an absentee ballot by 4pm (if requesting by writing) or 11:59 (if requesting by fax) yesterday. But your actual ballot has to be postmarked before or on 2/12 and received no later than, like, a week after 2/12.

(I researched it for someone yesterday.)

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I need my head removed so the pain goes away.

Vortex, you've moved recently so you have some excuse ... but at least you know there's a primary (right? you did, didn't you?).

um, I sort of assumed that we didn't do that kind of thing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's hard to get insurance to cover this.

Sox, that is completely unacceptable. Hell, after half an hour (if that!), you say "I hired you to watch her, not be on the phone/computer" That's completely unacceptable useless behavior.

I am at the library. I have my computer. I have my jobsearch stuff. I need to update my resume. I...have no willpower.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

What meara said, but I don't think I'd let it go 1/2 hour.

Hey, I have a week of doing nothing but lying around and reading coming up- what books would you all recommend for this?

I've heard. Feel like such a puss bitching about a headache.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Vortex, you've moved recently so you have some excuse ... but at least you know there's a primary (right? you did, didn't you?).

I will say, as someone who didn't know about ours until quite recently (and accidentally) -- it's surprisingly easy not to know. Maybe because I don't look at enough actually local media, or maybe because the local media mostly covers national politics, or maybe because "Hey, everybody remember we have a primary coming up!" isn't so much news, but I swear I get more warnings about daylight saving time than primaries. Or, hell, elections.
