I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Yay, marriage!

The UW women's teams are, unfortunately, the Husky Women.

I have found that checking and questioning my assumptions is a good thing. Mostly, I do it in the context of anti-racist self-education. Lots of things that don't seem loaded or harmful from inside the privilege (spelling hard on phone) bubble are, once you step outside it.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Oh, and I meant to add: Scrappy, I'm glad your BiL is getting some family help.

Also, thanks for the gay support :)

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

GC, I'm so excited for you both! Happy Nuptials!

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

MM, do you have another cow? I'm not ready to order it just yet, but just checking in case I do.

I'll start fueling the cow now, just in case.

Now I can get married tomorrow (!!!)

Go you, Glam, and your Soon-To-Be-Wife.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Ya for GC getting married!!! (now that tune from My Fair Lady pops in head) "GC's getting married in the mornin'..."

VW, get better soon. Silly high heels. Next time make CBD wear the heels.

ION, MM, hold the flaming cow. I have insurance cert & rental check! Woot! Of course the dude is heading to lunch now, so I gotta wait another hour. But. We have progress.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Probably better than Husky Bitches.

I feel sorry for the cows. Could you use Cheney and his ilk of neocons instead? THX!

not your mom's socks.

Flaming Cheyneys... sounds like a drink instead of a cow...

YAY For GC Nuptuals!!

Punishingly Intricate

Now I can get married tomorrow (!!!) feeling pretty.

WOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I use "lady" all the time. In a jokey, reclamation way I guess. For example, I like to call our restroom at work (we have one & I'm the only woman here) the "Ladies Room." And I like to talk about my delicate ladyparts. Mostly in a pain caused by bike riding context.

And I hate the "Lady Whozzit" teams for reasons everyone has stated. That was one of the great things about going to an all-girl's high school. All the teams were Raiders. whatever that means.

I can't imagine a man calling me "Little lady" with a straight face but if they did there'd be balls a'hurtin.

Hell, any team would have a bump in their super-awesome quotient with a name like the Mighty Fightin' Whatnots.

I keep reading this as Mighty Fighty Whatnots, which I like even better.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

sounds like a drink instead of a cow...
