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.

Todd, I'm not super picky. I just want to freshen up the place and I'll get no help from my landlord at all. So the easier the better, I'd say.

Oddly, I proposed getting Em a fish for her birthday. She LOVES watching them at the grocery store and will stare at them for hours.
When our whole family went to Disneyworld back in 2000, my youngest nephew was three. We went to the Animal park and could not tear him away from the fish at the nature trek. That was probably his favorite thing on the whole trip, other than the merry-go-round.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
I'm looking at you, Aims.
whistles innocently, while shooing animals behind back.
What? I got nothin'.
Ahem.
That explains the weird noises from the garage.
At least I hope it does.
Aims...you got some 'splainin' to do...
I want fainting goats!!
"Boo!" *thump* "BWAHAHAHAHA!! Boo!" *thump* "BWAHAHAHAHA!! Boo!..."
"Aims, cut it out."

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Brenda, Lucy's always struck me as such a lovely and happy girl, and so obviously a great big love for you. I'll be wishing her an easy surgery and the best of all possible recoveries!

Oh Brenda, lots and lots of ~ma for Lucy and you!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Is it the scam I'm afraid it might be?
Per Apartment Therapy, yes. BUT, painting is Not Especially Hard. It's all in the prep work. I hear (also via Apartment Therapy) that the ShurLine edger works very well. Have not tested that theory yet, but I have one somewhere.
The trick is the prep work. Wash the walls, let them dry. Mask off your trim with painter's tape. Prime. Let dry. Apply two coats of your chosen color. If you're going with a deep shade, get a tinted primer. Your paint store can guide you. There are plenty of instructions out on the web. For most rooms, it's a fun weekend job.
Brenda, much luck to Lucy.
