Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

I'm up. Teachers have to be at school by 7. Kids will be in my room in 3 hours. This is going to be a long day.

I am in the Miami airport waiting for my flight. I will be in DFW for less than an hour later this morning, but I will wave at you, omnis and Daisy!

Our wings are not tired.

waves bye to Kristin

Sorry we didn't connect while you were in Miami. I lost track of time doing the last moment Target back to school purchases. Smooth travel ~ma and loads of recovery ~ma for the ma.

Took Brendon at 7 this morning. New plan this year because I am refusing to do the long drop off line unless it is a tropical storm. Well, we do have one of those, but it isn't going to start raining for a couple hours. I dropped him off across the street at a strip center and let him walk in. This was so much for the best since the line was literally several miles long. I don't need this with my standard transmission. I did give him a choice of riding the bus or walking from across the street. Considering that the center has a Dunkin Donuts the choice was simple.

Next up, dropping Bobby at his bus stop. I still don't get out of driving completely, but as long as I don't have to do the drop off line crawl it's all good.

We find out at noon if school will be canceled tomorrow due to Fay. (I hope so because school during wet storms is awful since they have to change classes outside in the weather)

Happy Monday all!

I'm delayed. We've been sitting on this Tarmac for an hour already. Looks like I will miss my Dallas connection. Joy.

“Not dead yet!”

Is it because of the weather, Kristin?

All is well that ends in pizza.

fridge still warm

Unplug it for a couple of hours to let the compressor and components get a rest.

when you do plug it back in, listen to what sound it makes, if any. write it down.

Even inf you don't hear anything, that might be a clue when you call an appliance place to ask how much a visit would cost.

Also, many utility companies have repair plans you can join and have a fee that's cheaper than any repair would be normally.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

askye, you're nephew is such a cutie! Congratulations again!

{{{Kristin}}} Much travel~ma.

TCG is home today trying to figure out what he is going to do about the car situation. He's still a little sore but otherwise ok.

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

Wow, did I miss a bunch or what?

In re: Ruby Tuesday's: BWAH!

In re: Drew's mom: Jesus, man. Y'all need anything that I can do, just give me a call.

In re: Me: I have my wife back. All is right in my world.
