[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 status is NOT quo.

I will take hugs any time, but it's Seska's hammie who has gone to wait at the Rainbow Bridge

Oh crap! This is what happens when I read too fast. Sorry Seska, and hugs.

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.

But I'm up at 5am to take The Girl to the airport. I may be competing against you for that title.

Isn't it tomorrow there already? I only meant to claim the title for the day. You can have it now.

Why. we are all just a big goopy glob of virtue, today, what with the getting up early and not getting head-asplodey, etc.

I'm really excited about the fact that my new(er) car has a working dome light. Daniel is a good boyfriend for finding this car for me.

All is well that ends in pizza.

hugs to Andi for the loss of the hamster

I will take hugs any time, but it's Seska's hammie who has gone to wait at the Rainbow Bridge.

Carried across by several hairy hamster Valkyries?

Craigslist-fu.

I may qualify for best girlfriend of the day: I made a pizza. Well, ok, it started as a frozen ultra-thin crust pizza. But then I added green and red bell peppers, onion, baby 'bella mushrooms, tomato (that I grew myself) slices, and cheese.

It put you on the top of my list, Milady.

Our wings are not tired.

Yay new car!

Not awake. Have had shower, breakfast, and oj. Didn't help. Going for tea now.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Barely awake. Don't wanna go to work.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I concur with Anne.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I'm with Anne and Teppy. Of course, I already am at work, but still. Don't wanna.

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

Leeds University department FAIL. Tomorrow is the official end-date of my course. I have a two-month extension on my dissertation, so they were supposed to re-enrol me. It looks as though they did not, although they claim they did, because the library is demanding all my books back Right Now. Handy, when I'm four hours away. No one seems to know what's going on, and I'm trying to deal with it over e-mail because I am way too anxious for phones today. Oh and the library also gave me a £37 fine during the time I was too ill to ring and renew my books, when I had swine flu. They say I can bring in a sick note and they'll consider reducing the fine. I say, I'm four hours away! I get no reply. Bloody idiots.

Meanwhile, my local evening course sent me some details on how to get to them, and I'm not sure (from looking at the map provided) that the venue is wheelchair-accessible. That's going to be interesting. I've left that in the hands of a rather more proactive-sounding disability services dept than the one at Leeds.

I had decided I wasn't going to watch House or How I Met Your Mother until this evening, when I'd done some work, but I think I'll give in and have an extremely lazy afternoon.

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

Oh, argh, Seska. That's infuriating.

Re the library and the swine flu, can you call the office of the doctor you saw and have them fax a note to the library? As a doctor's office admin, I love doing this kind of stuff--it doesn't take long and it's actually measurably useful to someone, the kind of thing an admin doesn't always get to do.

And I'm so sorry about your little guy. Four years is a very long hearty life for a hamster; he could never have lived so long if you hadn't loved him dearly and done a splendid job of caring for him.
