Spike ,'Same Time, Same Place'


Spike's Bitches 40: Buckle Up, Kids! Daddy's Puttin' the Hammer Down.  

[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.

Hmmm...I'll jump over and see. That's one I didn't check.

Next question...is there a more specific word for "silently referenced"? The context is that there are passages from the Bible that are referred to in the piece, but not directly.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Er, implicitly referenced? Maybe?

Thanks, Fay. That probably does work, though they are still dictionary definitions rather than literary definitions. I may ask again if my it pings my adviser.

Anyone here?

I'm the only person awake in the house right now. For the past 8 hours or so, I've been dealing with some kind of 24-hour stomach bug or food poisoning. I think I maybe sorta am starting to feel better, and I was so thirsty I couldn't sleep, so I tiptoed downstairs and am very slowly sipping a glass of water to see if it will stay down. Ugh. Stupid stomach. I hope I'm recovered enough by tomorrow to go to the game.

Hm, I wonder if anything is on TV at 6:15 on a Sunday...

I'm here, Susan....for a few more minutes, anyways. I must shower and pack soon.

It's sorta spooky, being the only one awake like this while it's still dark out.

I totally know what you mean! When we said goodbye to my brothers and SIL this morning, the hotel was SO quiet (it was 5:45 a.m.)...creepily so.

Of course, I keep expecting someone to come blow up the place since there's also a kids beauty pageant going on here, which is also QUITE disturbing.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I'm here. Just finished paying (well, making installments on) various bills and am now gagging over the prospect of having to ask my dad for more money when I see him today. I'll happily trade all that for your stomach bug anytime!

Oh, JZ, how frustrating. Hang in there, girl.
