(((Cindy)))
...okay, reason #392 I shall continue to avoid opening my mother's 'amusing' forwarded emails: I never, ever want to open an email from her that purports to be about the effects of Swine Flu, and find it's a pornographic shot of a girl hunkering on all fours on a bed, who's been photomanipped to have a pig's snout and ears, and several additional breasts. With big, erect, perky nipples. And a curly tail sticking out of her ass where her knickers are hiked down.
tries to bleach brain
considers sending mother link to goatse by way of vengeance, just to underline that let's-not-share-pornographic-images-with-our-offspring notion
cannot bring self to do so, as likes mother
searches harder for brain bleach

To clarify: the image wasn't particularly shocking or offensive (hey, I write gay vampire snuff porn), but...it was photomanipped
porn.
I really don't want my mum to send me porn. I'm happy that she has an active sex life with my dad, yay her, I just - really, I'm good with not giving her links to my porn, & not having her send me amusing pictures of naked...er...actually, what DO you call the pig equivalent of a furry? 'Cause furry she wasn't.
Amusing emails from my mother: rarely amusing, as it turns out, but this was a new one on me.
For the second time today, I say, "Whoa, Fay."
I am suddenly relieved I only get sassy "you go girl"-esque cheesy emails from my mom.
I can find larger ones or tiny ones but I hoping for something in the 8 oz range with a cork or screwtop lid. Or one of those hinge ones like the Grolsch bottles. Anyone have ideas? I've been to Pier 1, World Market, Bed Bath, KMart.
Container Store has them, but they're spendy. The last time I did liquers for gifting, I ordered the bottles from here.
I'm not so sure you can't bring up comics; just don't spend an hour explaining how there have been 5 Robins (6 if you count Dark Knight Returns), and one of the Robins was Robin twice, and oh, did you mention Superboy-Prime PUNCHING A HOLE IN REALITY?!?
See, I disagree. If you let your geek flag fly right from the get-go, you save aa lot of time easing the other person into it later.
Sending lots of "Hope it's nothing" ~ma to Cindy.
Congratulations on the job Jilli!
Congratulations on the house erin!
I hope you get good results Cindy.
Sorry about people Seska.
Ginger, how's the ankle today?
Hil, same question....
The weird and the ugly that you have bumped into lately, Fay, I don't even know what to say about it.
Much ~ma for Cindy.
Yay, job! for Jilli.
erin_o, I hope you figure out the computer situation ok. And quit coughing soon.
Here is a link to the world's worst vampire stuff: [link] NSFW

Fay, it's cool to hear about Cambodia.
P-C, I've had blind dates, but they were just boring. Not even comical badness, unless it was the lack of chemistry involved. People who have set me up don't get me, up to 11. Wow, Tep, Bat-Canon=weirdness. I've read Gotham Central which is kind of like Batman/H:LOTS, which is like The Best Thing Ever. Love.
Jilli, good news.
I would have given up Important Body Parts to be at the lefty journalist's forum with Keith & Rachel, POTUS, and the star of my fricking tag. Of course, I'd have been so nervous that I couldn't eat at all,good desserts or not, but I'd be the happiest and most overdressed person ever seen at a drive-through window.
I've never been on a blind date. Bad dates I have covered. I refuse to give dating advice however since I've been married forever and feel unqualified to give advice in that department.
Damnit! I knew there was something I missed.
Seska - the incident with the cyclist is scary and disturbing. I'm glad you reported it. I wish there were an easy way to ensure your safety.
I'm very taken with a cockney policeman named Barry who phoned me because he was worried when he received my statement. He was such a sweetie. He's flagging the incident up with local community safety officers. Aww! (He then told me all about a man he knows who served in Afghanistan and came back having lost a leg, and gets disablist abuse, and how unacceptable he thinks such things are. Lovely bloke.)
