[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.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Ugh, Shir, that's super annoying. Here, if anything goes wrong, I call my landylady and she pays all upfront. I am so glad I scoffed two years ago when all my friends were "You should buy a house! Your money is going nowhere!"

My single gf that did so got her house foreclosed on 3 months ago. Plus? I don't have to buy boilers and gutters and shingles and such. I pay $550 for a nice 1920's 1 bedroom with a sunroom, dining room, hardwood floors and deep, long porcelain tub in the heart of the PLaza, and I don't pay for gas, water, sewage, or trash. My AC is electric, but my heat is steam and I pay nothing on it. I am FINE with not having an investment at this point.

Happy Birthday to Typo Boy!

Massive amounts of no~more~pain~ma headed out.

I've owned a house for 20something years and am so over it. As soon as there is movement in real estate again I just want to sell and move into a rental place with phone numbers to call when stuff breaks. I have a great house, but ugh the money and time it sucks. I miss the good old renting days.

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

Erin, that sounds nice, where are you with that cheap of rent?

So I opened up Google Earth to try and get an estimate of how much I walked. I guessed a good 1.5 miles each way. Looks to be about 1.5 miles total. Eh. I was close with my estimate. Either way, it was a nice jaunt. Got the blood flowing. Taking in some nice fresh air.

Shir, glad to hear all is ok with the plumbing.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Teppy,If you can find a few thing that the boy can do for you , when you aren't feeling well it will help him -- which in turn lets you do what need to do For you ( which for me is growl at the world and go inward) -- DH knows where my inhalers are -- if I can't talk he can find them . And if I have a cold - he can bring me all the tea and water - with out asking me if I want them. He also know that eggs, wanton soup, and smoothies are my favorite foods when sick.

Maybe in this case all you need is a clear path to the bathroom -- but let him do that.

Wow. I am really missing CBD right now. I was doing really well till about an hour ago, and wow. I feel really pathetic.

Now tagless for your comfort.

vw, you got used to having him around. It will take a while to get used to being alone again.

Yeah. I'm not alone, though. I'm actually out at my parents. Going home tomorrow, though. Maybe I'm just not looking forward to that. I don't know...

It just got kinda nice to have someone around...someone to...oh, I'm gonna stop.

CBD was a good guy -- hope this passes quickly. If it goes on too long -- give yourself permission to remember that good does not mean smart.
