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.

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

I fell asleep during the game. Stupid evil chair. I gotta find the anti-sleep potion to counteract the spell that was obviosly put on the chair.

My next World Series question: when did they drop "devil" and become just The Rays? Where they not getting enough Baptists in the crowd or something?

ION: the windchimes have been playing all day. I think a slow storm front is moving thru.

Me=stupid. I had way too much caffeine today, sent my heart into overdrive. Known risk, known issues, had the energy drinks anyway. And then, of course, couldn't find my bottle of beta blockers. After a few hours of sitting on the couch watching TV, it's pretty much calmed down. (The reason for the energy drinks was that I finally had an actual idea for my research, and I kept losing my train of thought, and caffeine helps me focus.)

Note to self: before doing something stupid, make sure you know where the stuff you need to undo the stupid is. Or, possibly, try not to do stuff you know is stupid.

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.

Feeling like your own worst enemy, Hil? Hope you can get some rest soon.

Hey folks, feels like I've not talked in a long time.

Pretty much, yeah.

My season 3 House DVDs got delivered today, so I watched those. Possibly not the best choice while trying to stay calm. Also, discovered my limit for number of House episodes I can watch in a row is six.

On the plus side, I think that, while the caffeine was giving me focus but not heart palpitations, I was able to solve a problem in my research that's been causing a zillion other problems.

Been working on Halloween Horror Nights for most of the past month and a half.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

Dang, ND! Does it always take that much prep work for Halloween Horror Nights? I should be sleeping. I'm not. This is not a good plan.

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

This year. They changed before this first year when they didn't lose. I suspect there was some need to - not pander to but - appeal to people put off with the other name. They still have actual stingrays out in a pool behind centerfield.

Yeah, we started installation on Sept. 10th. We did a preview night for the employees on Oct. 1 and we've been open to the public since Oct. 3. It's a pretty big event. We've been hitting 20,000+ people on many nights.
