I had an appointment with a matchmaking service for noon today. I didn't make it at noon. My poor car (for the second time, third if you count the rogue dumpster that ran amok in the parking lot three years ago) got rear-ended while on an exit ramp. I think she be jinxed. This will be her fourth trip to the body shop (let's not forget the bad hail storm two years ago) since I bought her five years ago. Sigh.
Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Oh Sail, poor car. And poor you! Are you okay?

My right shoulder is a little stiff, I think I tensed up when I saw the guy in my rear view mirro and had the feeling he just wasn't going to be able to stop. Otherwise, I'm fine. I might take some Aleve before bed for the shoulder.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Yikes Sail! Get better soon.
Omnis, if it had been auto-pay, I would have been fine. It was a paper check they processed twice.OMG! That's crazy.
Change of subject: It is GORGEOUS outside today! Sunny, 75 degrees, and spring-like. I ate a bagel outside in a sunbeam a little bit ago, AIWFG!OMG! That's Envy! Tho, I did just get back from our little lunch break before the performance. I had my PB&J, then, since the weather is so gorgeous, I took a walk around the building to soak in some warm sun and "fresh" air. It was very therapeutic. Must remember to do that more in nice weather. Too much time in a stress filled dark theater is bad for the soul, I suspect.

The status is NOT quo.
Too much time in a stress filled dark theater is bad for the soul, I suspect.Yes, yes it is. Wish you were free--I was going to try to tempt you up to Pasadena tonight to hang out. Instead, I'm doing my taxes. What's up with that?!?

I'm jealous of the gorgeous weather. I took a walk on Alki Beach with my friend J, because we were all excited it wasn't raining. And any time it's not raining, I think that counts as "gorgeous weather" here in Seattle, is the sad part!

Our wings are not tired.
It's raining here tonight and it is a beautiful thing. We need it so bad. It is a nice gentle rain too so it is getting a chance to soak in and not just run off. Yay rain!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
I just stumbled across a birthday present for Suzi
Beth - Oh MY!
And thanks to all, again, for the birthday wishes.
Lunch was fun, only got one gag gift of Centrum Silver. But there were black lei's, black pins and other "40 is OLD" type decoration. Mom also snagged my tiara and taped in a "Happy Birthday" thing.
Now I'm trying to recover from spending so much time in the car with folks. Eventually there will be Japanese food with the rest of my family.
