I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

[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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'll post something that I think is interesting, funny, or clever (or all three) and the next post is something like my cat just died of cancer, then fell onto my puppy and killed it. And yeah, I feel really bad about it, but a small selfish part of me thinks, "Damn, that post has been lost forever."

I've been there too.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I think it's funny when I bitch about a company on Twitter, I end up getting a reply from the company's representative asking what they can fix. It's weird.

And speaking of completely other things, here's a terrific tribute to the late lamented plus-size magazine Mode! Someone has put scans of issues online. I wish someone would bring this magazine back--it was really terrific.

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

It's funny until they @ or DM you more than once about it if you don't reply. (Seventh Generation? PUSHY!)

Thrive to spite them

Bro and SIL shot a wedding in Vermont this weekend. I know one of the things they did was go on a chair lift and then go downhill mountain biking.

I forgot to tell them to hit up The Alchemist but I think they have another wedding up there some time soon.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

And I still want some of those apple cider doughnuts you talked about.

So. Fucking. Good. This is us at the cider mill: [link] Dorks.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Oooh, apple cider donuts sound good.

I have new officemates. We are now four people sharing two computers, with no one willing to bring in a laptop. (If the computer situation gets too bad, I'll start bringing in mine, but I really hate typing long things on the laptop.) Also, discussion with new officemates somehow got on the topic of Hurricane Katrina, and one of them says that the reason that New Orleans still has a lot of sections that haven't been rebuilt is that FEMA gave gift cards to each of the survivors to use on rebuilding, and a lot of them spent them on alcohol and pornography instead.

I wonder if I can get through this year by just not talking to anybody, ever.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I would normally want an apple cider donut, but I'm stuffed. We had Mom's clam chowder for dinner along with a pizza that I made with caramelized onions, goat cheese, heirloom tomatoes, and fresh basil. Washed down with elderflower presse, which I was too excited for words to find in the market today.

Yeah, but adorable dorks.

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

Hate Hil's new officemates.

Love the dorks in Vermont!
