[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.

Am in Denver, am exhausted, cat is under the hotel bed.

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

lease? longish-term rent-a-wreck? get to know carpooling coworkers really well, really fast?

Now tagless for your comfort.

(((Suzi))) Can you look up a rent-a-wreck place? Not sure if Denver has one but some places will rent beater cars cheap.

Other option? Company car loaner?

Jilli, have you seen the book Cherise the Niece?


Amy - Jun 30, 2008 3:28:31 pm PDT #5438 of 10001
Because books.

Suzi, could you afford to buy a used car really cheap -- like something from an ad in the classifieds for $1 or 2K?

Oh Suzi, how frustrating!

Jilli, have you seen the book Cherise the Niece?

Erm, no?

Thanks for the suggestions - I'm still wallowing in denial and scared to look at our finances at the moment. Moving is blooming expensive.

THOUGH, remember how I was saying the mover dude was telling me that our good were going to be overweight? Well they came in under, so my final bill is actually less than my not-to-exceed amount. Not by a huge amount, but still, nice.

Erm, no?

Cherise the Niece. I saw it next to the cash register at my indie bookstore and had to buy it. The conversation went like this:

Me: *reading book* Wow, this is adorable! Sorta Edward Goreyish
Sales Girl: ...?
Me: Edward Gorey. You know--this is almost like Gashlycrumb Tinies.
Sales Girl: ...
Me: The ABC book where each letter starts a kids' name before they meet a horrific death.
Sales Girl: *looks horrified* Um, that doesn't sound nice at all! It's not a kids' book, is it?
Me: Uh...*pays for my book and magazines and leaves quickly*

Cash, that looks wonderful.

I know, Amy! I should have gotten two copies and just mailed one to Jilli immediately.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

I'm watching the USA airing of the olympic trials for track and I know these people! It's very exciting.

I wonder how much I've missed.

I've had a delish dinner of steak, fennel/carrot/garlic/olive oil, and Monkey Bay Sauvignon Blanc wine. So yummy!
