Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I am brilliant. I scheduled a meeting with my coworker just prior to my weekly meeting from hell.

In the spa room.

With alcohol.

I don't think we'll give a shit what is said in WMfH.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I am back. Pretty much.

The Semester That Ate My Brain is over *weak yay!* The
We interrupt this post for a brief earthquake. So Cal is so cool.
Slacker!Co-Worker is back from extended sick time/disability/back problems, etc.

And I miss you guys, so now that my biggest timesucks are over, I declare myself returned (tentatively).

So, how's everyone? Places chin in hands, ready to listen attentively.

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

In the spa room.

Your perks are not like my human perks.

With alcohol.

Nope. Not at all like.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Vortex - speaking as someone who is a hardcore procrastinator, hit 'em where they live. Otherwise they'll end up like me.

Okay, I'm officially an Angelino. That was a scary quake, though thankfully it was short.

Ann, that's a ferret.

My school system was a little different. 8th grade got Midsummer Night's Dream (which I didn't read, because we moved into that district after I finished 8th grade), freshman got Merchant of Venice, sophomores got Julius Caesar.

For junior and senior years, we had to take four one-semester courses, with at least one each in literature, writing, and speaking. My sophomore English teacher warned us away from English Lit, so I took World Lit. So, no Shakespeare for me then.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Hope everyone is OK after the earthquake.

From San Diego it was just a kinda fun quake, but I thought it felt pretty long. Anyway, congrats on your official initiation!

Our wings are not tired

Call me a heathen, especially since I work in theatre, but I think Shakespeare is overtaught. There are so many other valuable works of drama that are left out of curriculum to put in more Shakespeare. I know I'll be in a minority with this though.
