(And MM - she asked for a flaming COW, not a duck.)
And a flaming cow she got.
The flaming duck was a gift-with-purchase. Like a tote bag, but quackier and on fire.
Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[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.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Lastly, something that puzzles me in this conversation. When I think of powerhouse female collegiate basketball, I think of the "Lady Vol's" from Tennessee.
But that's the name that the college itself gave to the team. The universities who haven't slapped diminutives onto their women's sports teams tend to refer to them as (for instance) U.C. Bearcats Women's Basketball.
Which is better, I suppose, than my friend's co-ed high school that celebrated -- and I'm not making this up -- Men's Sports Week and Girls' Sports Day. Nice. Like they were forced to acknowledge that the female critters actually could bounce a ball, so they threw them the smallest bone possible.
One of the many reasons I loved going to an all-girls' school.

Ok. I think I'm in as much pain as I was on Thursday/Friday. Fuck. I have stuff that HAS to get done today.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I went to a women's college; we frequently had to correct those who called it a "girls' school". It was nice having the entire student government young women, everything was geared to women. (And the infirmary had stirrups permanently attached to the examining tables. THAT will freak out a guy!)

Thanks, guys. I'm trying to not think about things too much.
I hope you feel better as the days goes on, hon.

Well, as my chiro said this morning, "You need to remember this was a serious injury, and you need to treat yourself as such."
I suck at that.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Pain~ma, vw.

I'm so pathetic. I'm trying to get ahold of CBD to see if he could come work from my place today. It's just that it's really hard to take care of two dogs (one who is pretty high-maintenance) when I feel this poorly.
