I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

[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.

“Not dead yet!”

I use a retractable leash. I do not use a cell while using it.

I use them with Pisces and Mooshu because they both walk well on leash and don't go charging after people. I also keep it locked in a fairly short position.

If I tried a retractable with Jas, she'd yank my arm straight out of the socket. It's a matter of knowing the dog and knowing what works best.

One of my gripes is people who talk and drive shopping carts. They driiiiift down the middle of the aisle, chatting away, and occasionally getting so involved in their conversation that they stop, usually right in front of what I'm trying to buy. "Excuse me" in a normal tone doesn't get through to them at all. They simply don't process the five carts stuck behind them.

Thrive to spite them

Steph, I took a shower I feel slightly human.

Actually I came to the realization that I don't do well in alot of clutter when I get stressed or dealing with lots of choices. I need to make my place more..minimal.

Also I redownloaded an 11 minute yoga PM thing from exercisetv.tv --- it really helped when I did it. It cost me $1.99 and at first I thought I'd have to buy it agian, but they keep your downloads you buy and you can just download it again so I did. Starting to morrow I'm doing that.

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

The legendary feral dogs of San Francisco.

There used to be an area of San Francisco called Dogtown. It was near the slaughterhouses and lots of dogs would congregate there.

Health-ma to Calli's dad and Kathy's Uncle Ray. Job-ma to ChiKat!

I am home. My plans tonight consist of sitting on my ass, eating Indian food, and going to bed early. I will also be popping advil like candy to attempt to mitigate the damage I did to myself yesterday on my accidental six-mile mountain hike with bonus wind storm at the top.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Man, y'all can be a judgmental posse.

Sorry. Stepping away for a bit. Neighborhood-specific issues.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

huh. I live in a part of the bay area that is quiet. and I have seen people step into the path of everything behind them, wander across the street and down the middle of the street ( we have sidewalks) .

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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

As Windsparrow said.

Java, perhaps you are the exception that proves the rule, in this instance. Your behavior regarding responsibility for Chile on retracting leash is certainly an exception in the experience of most people who've weighed in here on the subject. Generalizations are unwise when they're a reflex, but they exist for a reason.
