Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness  

[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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

question for people who have been to the Museum of Jurassic Technology:

Is it an all-day thing or should we plan to include another activity?

It's a few hours, but nowhere near all day, even if you work at it. But give yourself at least two to four hours to really enjoy it.

Hell, omnis, when you get here, I'll make plans to show you around.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

MJT is pretty small, I'd say about 2 hours. But there's lots of good food nearby if you need something else to fill the day.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Omnis if your ears are ringing Mom and I are emailing back and forth about what a great guy you are.

A few hours. Depends on how much you read all the cards... and in the case of this museum, re-read all the cards.

Hell, omnis, when you get here, I'll make plans to show you around.
Sweet!

I hadn't realized it was in Culver City. Empanadas are definitely in order.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Daisy Jane (and Omnis--if you're going to be in Dallas at the end of the month), I will be in Dallas for a conference June 22d through the 26th. Most of the day Sunday and Monday evening look to be free. I'm staying at the Hilton Anatole, and there's no guarantee I'm going to have wheels. DJ, if you think it would be easier, I can make a business case for renting a car.

Congratulations to Lt. Col. Joe, USA and Stephanie! That's fabulous news!

Home is where my family is. My parents moved into their house 5 days after I was born, and still live there. My childhood room is still intact and ready for me anytime I choose to visit. It's still home. Our place in Italy is home, too. And finally, the house that DH and I bought is home, although it's taken some time for it to feel that way. It finally clicked when we painted two months ago, but now it's the first place that comes to mind when I think of "home."

edit: Laga, I hope the assholes are gone soon, and with a minimum of drama.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

That hotel is not too terribly far from the bar. I could totally come get you. You may want to rent a car though if you plan on doing anything on your own. We're not a very non-car-having friendly place.

ETA: Just looked and it is literally 5 minutes away.

Woot! Awesome! We shall plan soonish, via email?

I'll have to figure out if there's anything I want to do in Dallas. I'd love to hear any suggestions of can't-miss attractions. It's my first trip, but this conference tries to pack in a buttload of stuff in a short amount of time. Most of the days are going to be spent on the exhibit floor and Tuesday and Wednesday evenings have receptions and/or dinners.
