Who died and made you Elvis?

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.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

SF-istas - I don't know how big this story was, but last week a young man was shot and killed while riding his bike home in the Richmond District. It just came to my attention because he was the half brother of a childhood friend I just reconnected with (thank you Facebook). Our first e-mail exchanges were about a month ago and she sounded so excited, telling about how her mom had remarried and had two more kids and how well she and her brother got along with their half-siblings. My heart is so broken for her and her family.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

someone shot and killed him at 1:40 a.m. near the corner of 15th Avenue and Cabrillo Street,

Yeesh, that's a block from Matilda's daycare. Very close to Jen K.'s friend, Jenna, as well.

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.

My heart goes out to that young man's family and friends. What a tragic thing to happen.

Drew, try not to guilt yourself - you have spent a lot of time with your mom, and then you had to spend some time concentrating on work. I do hope you get to see her soon, and I do hope you get a chance to relax a bit and set your own agenda for a time, as well.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Teppy may turn out to be a prophetess yet. (I like the old fashioned term prophetess, it seems the proper usage when dealing with that sort of thing.)

I *told* you I have prophetic dreams! (Well, again, I don't REALLY think they're prophetic when it's something that I would have predicted in my waking hours, and since you have the MAD WRITIN' SKILZ, I would definitely expect you to get the job. Now, if I had a dream that you became a tightrope walker [I don't think you've ever mentioned that as a particular life goal], and then the next day you posted out of the blue that you joined a tightrope-walkers' troupe, THEN I'd call it prophetic.

You getting this job is simply what you deserve b/c your skills are what they need.)

ION, The Boy plaintively said that this is the time of year when he craves carbs more than usual (which is to say, instead of carbs making 70% of his intake, I think he wants it to be 99%, and no 41-year-old man should be able to eat GALLONS [literally; often THREE] of ice cream A WEEK and not gain weight [though his job is all manual labor, so he burns it off like a stevedore, and he's actually *lost* weight this summer]), so I'm making zucchini bread right now, and the kitchen smells yummy. It needs to be done right now.

Almost debate time!

love's a dream you enter though I shake and shake and shake you

Very close to Jen K.'s friend, Jenna, as well.

Yerk. Must make phone call. Thanks for the heads up!

I'm watching the debates and drinking copious amounts of wine.

I am NOT watching the debates. Because, OMG, I don't care.

Yes, we also like our TV and don't want to get so upset that we throw things at it.

“Not dead yet!”

Is there room on the pretty bench? As I said in Natter, I just couldn't cope with the debate. Watched pretty, surreal movies instead with pretty, pretty boys and girls.
