I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

[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 am now trying to resist the urge to make a ringtone.

WANT!

Absolutely gorgeous. Highs in the low 70s, lows in the mid 40s. There is a 40-50 percent chance of rain Thursday and Friday.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

thanks for the perspective. I will not feel guilty for chowing down on almost an entire bag of Pirate's Booty.

I do think I would be happier if I ate healthier and exercised more often. The dog would be happier too- if the exercise included her. When I was at my fittest I know the twice-daily dog walks were a contributing factor (my physically demanding job was the other). If I could get in the habit of waking up early every day and taking the dog for a walk, before long she would start waking me and demanding it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I know I have mentioned it here before, but think all Buffistas need to watch the video for "Walking on Broken Glass" so they can see the HAWTT Annie Lennox and the young John Malkovich and Hugh Laurie in powdered wigs and make-up. Not 80s, but just after. [link]

IONof coincidental nature, my doctor told me I had to lose weight today as well. Other than that, though, I seem to be in excellent health.

According to an online BMI calculator I am 2 pounds away from overweight.

“Not dead yet!”

Well, the dogs decided that wrestling on the bed was a good idea. Before I could shoo them off, they managed to land on my bad ankle/foot, turning it in a direction I'm not sure nature intended.

It's now back to throbbing with a side benefit of instant numbness if I flex it the wrong way. I'm a little concerned about that, actually.

Our wings are not tired.

Ouch! Oh dear, Barb. Do you have minions about to get you ice? Obviously staying off of it is a must.

Eek Barb! Is it swelling?

“Not dead yet!”

Not swelling, no, except for maybe in the most minor of ways. The skin over the ankle bone is way sensitive, meaning whatever's beneath the skin is probably pretty bruised. What's odd is I can flex it and put weight on it and all that good stuff, but flexing it a certain way exacerbates the numb sensation and while I can walk without limping, the outside arch of my foot aches and tingles quite a bit when I do.

Lewis is worried that I might have a chip or something. In between rolling his eyes at me for the creative manner in which I find to injure myself.

I hate to admit he has a certain point there- I was a jock most of my adolescence/young adult and never, ever once hurt myself. Yet I can trip over my own feet walking and do a number on myself. I've been known to give myself a hip pointer trying to get out of my office chair.
