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.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
I heard on the radio the other morning (the same day we started talking about hair, it was quite surreal, like the convo just moved from one place to the other), that dusting with baby powder before waxing makes it less painful. As I've never tried it, I have to proof to back it up with.
My family is pretty casual about bathroom time. My mother and I came and went as needed. I know my dad and my brothers did, too. It never bothered me, if you need something in the bathroom while someone else is in there, you go get it. If you stop to chat, no big deal. I do draw the line at taking the phone into the bathroom while it's potty time. I will take it in when I shower if I'm expecting a phone call that I don't want to miss.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
dusting with baby powder before waxing makes it less painful. As I've never tried it, I have to proof to back it up with.
The baby powder thing is definitely true. It keeps the wax from sticking (much) to your skin.

Definitely true. Super!waxer baby-powered before doing the bikini, and it was much less painful.

Yum. We had whole wheat penne with zucchini, onions, garlic, herbs, and feta. Also, yum.
They keep cutting into tv with an Amber Alert. Apparently a father took off with his daughter during a supervised visit. So sad.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Also, Go Emmett! I'm looking forward to reading the game report later.
We won! We're in the state semifinals! (Technically the Northern California Divisional Championship.)
beth came by to watch. Emmett mashed a ground rule double (one hop and over the fence), and walked three times and scored three times. Caught the whole game again, and there was a great play at the plate. His friend Jack threw a guy out from fairly deep in left field. Emmett got the ball ahead of the runner and blocked him off completely.
If we win the next game we're in the finals. Just like that.

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