Ginger's useful phrases are wonderful indeed.
I can hurt a demon!! That's right. I'm back. And I'm a BLOODY ANIMAL!

[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.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
yay for the job Erin and don't worry, you'll do great.
And maybe grow a few inches taller and get a deeper voice. (People STILL think I'm in high school. I'm 27!)
eh, fuck that noise. Yeah women who are taller and have deeper voices get more respect in college, but the students always pay more respect to men. That used to bug me, but then one day I said fuck it, I'll MAKE them respect me, and it worked.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Yay, Erin! That is great news. And those look like fun classes to teach.
No, I'm NOT a journalism major. Taught Newspaper or Yearbook? Nevah...
Well, I did create an award winning newsmagazine in High School. Ask me how! Or, rather, if you want any tips, feel free to ping.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Erin job! Yay! If you need some advice on the journalism side, I was a newspaper reporter and editor and a university student publications adviser.
So, #1 on speed dial, then?! Seriously, that's so good to know. I was thinking there would be some 'ffistas that would have some j-cred.
Sparky, that's too bad! Wasn't it you that loves a good limey gimlet like I do?
Edit: Hey, Hec-help, too! Awesome...

Yeah, I'm short and high-voiced, but I have worked out a serious stone-cold killer stare, and I walk like I'll stab you in the nuts with my little heels, so after a few weeks of taking no bullshit, there's a trickle-down.
Plus, I'm funny! It's hard to want to stab a teacher that makes you laugh.

“Not dead yet!”
My brain, she is tapioca after conference and cross-country travel. But yay, Erin on the job! I love Ginger's phrases to get you through the journo classes.
Photos from SF have started trickling in and I've discovered that a) pinks/burgundies/purples are indeed my colors and b) I seriously need to lay off the peanut butter M&Ms.

You were on Today, right. Barab? I just read about it, a bit, in Smart Bitches!
Oops, stove.
