Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.  

Closed Threads

[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.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Toast.

Is there a name for the terrible mix of embarrassment, frustration, confusion and self-reproach that one feels when one erroneously posts as someone else on the internet?

I'm at a friend's house, waiting in for the plumber for her while she's at the doctor. We post on the same disability messageboard. I forgot to sign her out, and posted as her. I quickly got the post deleted, but not quickly enough to avoid confusing some people. Ah, boards without self-delete or edit functions, how I despise you - why can't you learn from b.org? Sigh.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

"English".

Heh. Yes, I feel English quite a lot these days.

Have now dropped a cup of tea all over my friend's chair. And with my new wrist splints on, and everything.

I should go home and go back to bed...

Our wings are not tired.

All kinds of ~ma headed to Nora and family.

Good to hear your mom is released, Hil.

In frivolous news: i watched "vampire diaries". it was even worse than expected.

I didn't make it past about 45 seconds. I watched the cowboy thing on SwhyFwhy for a little while then gave up on live TV and went to bed with a book.

Congrats, Shir!

Oh dear, Seksa. English and human. Hope the day improves.

Hey, billytea. Supposedly life begins at 40. I had my kids at that age too, so it was a new life that started then for sure.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

... And I just got a call from School of History.

It's a nope, even before the interview. Because I'm missing 0.8 points to the grade they want.

Goddamn department. I really wanted that. You know, to actually think during my B.A., not only to chew up articles they know by heart.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, Shir, I'm so sorry. How frustrating and disappointing. And, their loss as much as yours.

But, still, INTERNSHIP. And Nilly's wedding. On the same day!

“Not dead yet!”

Yay on internship!

Boo on HUJI School of History.

Yay, Nilly's wedding!

Random. Searching thru streaming Netlix, I see original BSG. Is that Face from A-team as Starbuck?

Yep.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

Happy Birthday, billytea!!

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

OK, not all hope is gone.

There's this really long shot: they based the grade on my results this year. Figures, right? Only not all of my professors handed in the grades, yet (one of the them I handed in almost two months ago. God).

So, if the results to these would up my grade, there's a very slight shot they'll try and interview me.

Hate the tension. Would have to think of way too many alternatives if I won't make it there (it pays half of the tuition, not to mention find a faculty that actually teaches what I want).

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Congrats on internship, Shir, and holding onto hope for HUJI to come to their collective senses and hire you.
