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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Um, sorry?
No no - it was entirely my own doing! My only regret is that twas not done on *Friday* night when I could have slept in the next day.
Hooray for peektures!

I was stumbling along in the Spanish and I realized my classes had not prepared me for discussing exploding brains.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
¡EEP!
Is possibly the funniest thing I've ever read.

Sorry if it annoyed.
Not at all. Briefly confuzzled and bemused me, but definitely not annoyed.

Yeah, I was having a little trouble going directly Spanish -> English, but when I put it through the "what would bitches say" filter, it suddenly made perfect sense. Cultural context is an amazing thing in language learning.

Quite frankly, I've been so busy with schoolwork (note to self: online classes DO NOT work for you. You just don't do the work, then two weeks before the classes end you have three months' worth of work to do! NOT a good plan) that I kind of haven't been able to freak out about meeting his parents. I don't even really know why I'm freaked out. Ok. I do. I shall list the reasons.
1. His mother is a superior court judge.
2. His father is a trained pediatrician who now runs some big children's healthcare organization.
3. His little sister is a senior at Yale.
And if/when I graduate in 2009, it will have taken me 14 years to get my degree. I just feel like there is no way I will EVER measure up to this family.
My brain knows this is ridiculous. And CBD has told me that they're thrilled that he's happy and cannot wait to meet me. I know I'm funny and personable and all that, but I'm also fat, 6 years older than him, and dumber than his whole family. I just can't seem to get past that part.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Put the DH and his sis on the redeye last night, on their way to extract their brother from the drug/divorce/whatever else situation. Then I could not sleep ALL NIGHT. I was worried about DH, then Zorro decided I needed to be awake, and alternated meowing and licking me for two hours. THEN there was something which sounded gigantic rustling outside the bedroom window. I think it was two raccoons getting busy. Two neighbor cats were on the fence, watching with great interest. I finally drifted off around 4:00 am, and then the dogs woke up and needed to go out. I woke up with a headache and decided to stay home from work.
The DH did get there safe and they are with the bro. I got my fingers crossed.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Aside from the being 6 years older than him part, which is completely out of anyone's control, pleae do not be calling my awesome, beautiful, delightful, and incredibly intelligent friend mean things that are 100% untrue. I shall have to come to Boston and kick your ass if you keep it up.

Also, Bug, you are not dumb. You are way smart, also caring, strong and crafty, too!
Oh, and I am 6 years older than the DH. I consider it an EXCELLENT age difference.
