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

[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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I just changed a light bulb! I WILL MAKE SUCH A GOOD HUSBAND.

So now we know how many ghost bovines it takes to change a light bulb.

For those of you who identify as bisexual, have you had equally long relationships with same sex as you have with opposite sex partners?

My longest relationship before DH was less than a week, so he kind of wrecks the stats. I never really met anyone before him I wanted to spend that much time with as well as getting frisky. That said, I probably got frisky with ladies and dudes about 50:50 prior to meeting him. The straight guys being low hanging fruit didn't really affect me that much until I left Dublin because a good half of my friends at home were either gay or bi and we tended to hang out in gay or very gay friendly bars and pubs.

Seska - that's brilliant about your GF. To my shame, I did not know there was an event on yesterday, or I probably would have gone.

Happy Wedding Day, Nicole!!! I hope it is everything you want it to be.

Happy weddings and happy Halloween, y'all!

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.

Oh, Shir. Sometime, I want you to see the silliness that is Halloween in the U.S. I'm not really the one to show it to you, because I don't decorate and dress up. But I want you to see it, because it's a day that's mostly just fun. And I don't think you have enough pure silliness of the good kind right now. From your statement above, it sounds like you feel your dreams may be breaking. I hope you don't end up too broken yourself.

Happy Hallowe'en, Bitches!

Happy Birthday, Daniel!

Not my dreams. Just my reality. It's shifting. Maybe that Higgs particle is real. Anyway, I do plan to see Halloween sometime. I'm thinking about Halloween 2011, or 2012, if I'll have to fund the Great Trip Abroad 2 by myself (but I think my parents will chip in as a graduation present, anyway).

And happy birthday, Daniel!

ION. There's a gorgeous Siamese cat on my windowsill, who's Totally Not Noticing Me At All, and just being plain gorgeous.

That means I can kidnap him and love him foreveh until death (read: his claws) do us apart, right?

He's so pretty. And so catish.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Shir, I've read several of your posts about this move back in with your parents, but I'm still kind of confused about why you're doing it.

Obviously you don't have much choice in the matter, since it seems to be making you very unhappy - I don't want to add to that unhappiness, but could you (or maybe someone else?) explain to me why you're in this position?

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

Well, Fay, it has several reasons.

The first is the economic one. Since I lost my job almost a year ago, after a few months the money was gone (except for the part I saved for my tuition). Until I'll get another job (which will probably be only next year), I won't be able to afford a place, and I don't want my parents to pay for it.

The second is my sister. She had (and still have) a long, hard, meaningful army service, and that affected our whole family. I feel like we should have the time to spend together as a family - I left home at 15, and my sister then was 11. I feel like we should get to know each other better.

The third reason is that they are moving to a place that's close to my university, so it's easier to move in with them.

And the main reason, of course, of why we moving to he settlement is the freaking dog. I love him, I really do, but if we wouldn't have him we wouldn't need a place with a yard, and would be able to live within 1967 borders.

These are all excellent reasons, Shir. I'm very sorry that it means you're moving into a settlement, but I can certainly understand your rationale.
