Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

[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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Edited: I should have pointed out that I was addressing that to Shir.

I was pretty sure it wasn't a commentary on beer bread. (There would be a winky emoticon here if I used them.)

You don't know. It could have been. Maybe I made a lot of beer bread during my B.A. and all that reading got in the way.

Or something.

Beer bread has a long and rich history, that's for sure.

I'm not familiar with beer bread; what's it like?

I saw a recipe for beer cinnamon rolls the other day. May have to dig that up.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Huh. I love cinnamon, and most beer, but that just makes me think eww.

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?

Okay, I'm a strong woman. I can take care of myself. I pay my bills. I change lightbulbs. I take out the trash. I'm good on my own. I can handle things.

That being said....

There is a Big Ass Wasp in my window..the inside part..and all I keep thinking is I wish there was a man around to take care of it.

To be fair, I expect you'd probably welcome any gender of rescuer. The Girl is spider-killer in our family. I am a wuss.

Do you object to spraying them with poison until they shrivel up on the window-sill? (Wasps, that is. Not Girls.)

Absolutely true.

1) I don't have any poison. 2) I do have a cat that I don't want to get into the poison if I did have it.

Good news...it seems to have found its way back out the way it came in (through the screen somehow) and I have closed the window to insure no repeat entries.

Ooh, I hate when stingy flying things are in the house. Last time a wasp was inside a window it was the one next to the front door, so I left the door ajar for a little bit and the wasp flew out which was very lucky because I didn't have a Plan B.
