My talents are so wasted here at the library answering questions about how to find law stuff.
'Get It Done'
[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.

Thanks for giving me images of penis amputation and The Man Who Couldn't Stop before breakfast, Frank.
My work here is done.
If anyone missed it, I posted my first piece of fiction in five years. It feels good to have written something new. I don't know where to go from here, but I hope it's the beginning of a new phase.
SON OF A BITCH!!! I just realized that the dates of my summer program on the website are wrong. Off by an entire MONTH. FUCK.
passes drink to Vortex
Seems to be that kind of day.
pours Vortex more.
So much ~ma for Daniel's sister, Fay's Kenyan friends, and Nora's dad (and anyone else who needs some).
Aimee and Vortex, I'm sorry work is sucking so hard for you today. I'm having to break the news to kids who didn't get into the 10 Honors class, myself. Ouch. Not my favorite thing in the world.
However, I just had a pretty amazing experience. Mark Mathabane, most famous as the author of Kaffir Boy, came in to speak to the upper school today about his experiences as a child during apartheid in South Africa. His message was essentially about the power of education and the power of love as a transforming force. He began by talking about the ghetto he grew up in and told a story about the morning he woke up and discovered that rats had eaten off the bottom of his feet. His mother tore her only dress and dipped it in salt to wrap his feet because they couldn't afford the five cents to go to the clinic.
Yeah, that was the point at which my issues came sharply into perspective.
Holy crap, Kristin!!
I assume your class also reads Life and Times of Michael K? That one ripped me apart.
My boss's grandfather passed away. Is it appropriate for me to go to the viewing tonight?
It wouldn't be a faux pas, Aimee. Whether it's necessary depends on your office culture and your relationship with your boss.
