[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.

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

All I can think is "Because that's how the Wiggles Puppetmaster likes it!"

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Is it wrong that I kind of have a crush on one of the Wiggles?
It's not the freaky looking one without eyebrows is it?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Marc Dacascos' hips were moving kinda like that on that dance show. But I've watched precious little Wiggling. I couldn't make it through that clip. I'd have very stunted children.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Woken up by the dog, barking, twice.
Combined with the cold I was really hope to get over with sleep, and people here don't understand why I'm grumpy they didn't kept the dog quiet.
Yes, seriously.
I am screaming from the inside, but so, so tired to actually do anything.

There is disagreement as to whether the "benign familial articular hypermobility syndrome" is identical to EDS, hypermobility type or represents a unique condition [Grahame 1999].
That Grahame is my doctor! (He's a weird bloke. I was freaked out on first meeting him. But he's exceptionally good at EDS/HMS stuff.)

Aww, Shir. Can you get out of the house and do something calming? Maybe you can get more sleep later.

I'd sleep again, but I don't want to be awakened by the dog for the third time today. Then I'll have to kill someone.
But I'm going to see Rona Kenan today, and there will be a new ep of Rescue Me. Things will be good. And on Sunday, after The Great Home Search I'll go and meet some very dear friends, followed by a day and a half at ICon. [link]
I won't miss this by any chance [link] (Beker is one hell of a great lecturer), also planning to go there [link] and [link]
I'm gonna miss any bit of Jossverse lectures, but frankly, besides this one, which will be given by a dear friend of mine which I'll meet on Sunday: [link] (for full disclosure, I was a part of the group that helped him translate, and was named after one of the best/nutritiously translated expressions from BtVS here for "the hotness of you, doofus". I can't even begin to think of a way to translate it back to English, but it... raised some debates here. Personally, I thought it was brilliant).
So, good things to come. That's just why I wanted not to be sick, you know.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Shir, that lecture sounds wonderful, and how much fun it must have been to translate Buffy! Excruciating fun, at times, I'm sure.
Sorry you couldn't sleep.

Shir, those lectures sound fantastic. I am jealous. Please follow up with reports on how they were!

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

I only helped from time to time. And mostly, they didn't take my vote (again, I'm one of the rare who loved the translation to "the hotness of you, doofus"). Still, yes, it was very fun. I can't believe it was so long ago. How time flies.
I now see I started a sentence which I didn't end. I meant to say I'll miss all of the Jossverse lectures, but besides that translation lecture I don't really care. One is about Dr. Horrible, and will hardly bear any new information to me about it. The other is about L.A.'s role as a modern Camelot in vampire stories, which sounds boring to me (plus, the lecturer isn't very interesting).
I was supposed to lecture there, actually, but that plan was forsaken. Probably will do on another sci-fi convention. The idea is to look at the daily lives of the futuristic sci-fi programs: how's the bad hair day affects the warrior heroine, what kind of forms you need to sign before you take your space shuttle for a ride, the favorite brand of coffee, and how the whole daily environment affects the lives of the one who live in these stories. The moral goes that until we'll have our Sex and the City of the sci-fi, with the attention to all of those details and not just the big moral questions, we won't really know - and I think it's a big deal I'd like to know more about and gets left behind.
Now, I gotta be a Good Girl and almost finish to pack my room.
