[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.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Thanks for passing that craving along.

Sure! It was the least I could do, since I don't have the ingredients to make chocolate-chip pancakes.

Neither do I, but I may have to drag TCG out for breakfast on Saturday now.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I have a small tattoo sort kinda on my wrist but a little higher. Easy to cover with long sleeves. It didn't hurt at all, just tingled like touching one of those static ball things that makes your hair stand on end. Then it was all healed within a week. I think i totally lucked out on that because it's teeny.

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

only make the offer to people who know won't soak you on it.

Less of an option for P-Cow since taking his Uncle to lunch is a family obligation.

But I think he's got this takeaway: (a) he can ask to not split things evenly when he's not drinking alcohol or ordering a small item; (b) he needs to factor in three beers when taking his Uncle out.

FWIW, if somebody offers to take me out I'd feel free to get one beer, but would only get a second drink if they did.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

another option is taking the uncle to a byo restaurant.

I tend to mirror what the other person is getting in terms of alcohol or not and number of drinks.

The status is NOT quo.

Dear Self,
Do not ever, ever, EVER take an Ambien and then wander into the living room "just to hang out for a few minutes" with your lovely fiance and his friend. You will end up babbling nonsensically about the benefits of Ambien, refusing (belligerently) to go to bed despite gentle suggestions, falling asleep on the floor, and eventually having to be wrangled into bed by aforementioned lovely fiance. You will also have no memory of this until told about it the next day and will be suitably mortified.
Love and headdesks,
Me

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Is there a video of this?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm going to learn to sail in the next year, and then maybe buy a boat.

I would love to do that. Partially because I live a block away from a marina, and partially because the few times I've gone sailing as a passenger it was so fun. We joke that DH could take a boat to work, since that is also right by a marina, though it's a lot farther by waterway and the temptation to just not go in would be, I suspect, too strong.
