Oooh, thanks, Dana! Off to read.

[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.

sj, this house sits on an acre. There isn't a sunny weekend goes by that somebody, and usually several somebodies, isn't weed-whacking, mowing, leaf-blowing, chain-sawing (limbs, or firewood, depending on season). The neighbor on one side has the empty double lot across the street from us as a vegetable garden which feeds six grown kids, a raft of grandkids, some grown and with kids of their own, plus many of their co-workers. Perfect strangers have been pulling up in our driveway to ask if the greens patch belongs to us--we send them to him, he hands out grocery bags and tells them to have at it. But he has a big old tractor that he runs three seasons a year, and it's loud. On the other side, they have their grandkids over every weekend, and from 2PM till dark, they run two go-karts around the homemade track in their back yard, pppbbbththllbbbbppptttt, for hours on end. At other times they have two little yapdogs, a mini dachshund and a hairy rat, both of them nervous and aggressive and so threatening they jump backwards everytime they bark. A lot. A lotalotalot.
This is true, but those noises really don't bother me as much. Slamming doors really freak me out for some reason, and I hate hearing other people's voices because it wreck my ability to concentrate on anything else. I do realize that this is more my issues than my neighbor's issues.

Careful, she's slap happy today.
Nicole!
NO SNOW!
Perkins, are you getting a holiday party from lexis & westlaw? They are not giving us one! Boo!
Sarah! You couldn't have clue-sticked your neighbor because you were in Colorado with me.
Psst - Perkins is a big baby about snow.
Thanks, Nicole. I'll save that alibi for another day because the mom came home and reamed them out for something. Have you had a lot of snow so far?

You are NOT NOT NOT a failure, my luverly. Not by any stretch of the imagination.
O poo-poo your claim.
