I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

[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.

“Not dead yet!”

Part of me is torn between feeling indignation at the shameless coffee theft, thereby leaving you bereft of brew, yet...

at the same time, I can't help but this this is Karma coming back to bite you on the ass for the shameless earworming this morning.

I had to resort to ABBA to wipe it out of my brain.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm having a Diet Coke.

Me, too!

Owen's painting pictures of Spider-Man and Liv is playing with their flannel board.

I need to get off my ass and get dressed. I have to go fill out paperwork for my life insurance and pay the premium.

Happy Birthday Scrappy!

Purse woes #3 - with the 3rd transfer of purse - I managed to leave my wallet and office keys in the other one.

Argh.

The vending machine here is out of diet Coke. I'm having Diet Mountain Dew. It doesn't suck.

"I've got a gun! I've got a mother-flippin' gun!" - Moss, The IT Crowd

Ha! Meara clearly doing her best to get through those 90 posts there!

Yes, my thoughts exactly. Btw, Meara, I wasn't suggesting 90 posts of crap, just 90 posts of hilarity such as the kerfauxfle that me, Aims & Kristin managed once. I think wrestling was involved, but I can't remember if mud or something sweeter was used...

Or possibly because, you know, goretastic. A sneaky way to pull hot vampire chicks and their demon bunny sidekicks, perhaps?

Nope, it was another 9 months before I even laid eyes on the Jilli. These incidents took place in San Diego & Lake Geneva, both in the run-up to cons - Comic Con & Gen Con.

ION, I'm up a little earlier than normal because I wanted to check the house before Jilli awoke. I'm checking for spiders.

...

Um, yeah. Unfortunately I saw about two dozen very small white spiders (half the size of an ant) on the ceilings last night just before bedtime. Clearly their mom laid an egg in a space above one of our light fittings. We probably would have remained completely unaware of them if they didn't have the proclivity to build webs around the lights allowing them to kind of show up with a pearly glow.

Yeah, Jilli's not thrilled. So, I've been busy dealing with them. I'd like my medal now, but would settle for a cappuccino.
