Fancy vegan restaurants are fun with my parents. My mom looks at it as an adventure and wants to order everything on the menu that she's never heard of. We end up splitting at least three appetizers, and she tries a bit of everybody's main course. My dad, on the other hand, gets confused by food that isn't chicken, asks me to explain what everything is, gets perturbed at paying $20+ per entree, and is always surprised when he likes the food, even if he's been to the same restaurant and liked the food three times before. Last year, after much deliberation, he finally settled on ordering a spicy black bean and tempeh stew. He took a tiny, tentative bite and said, "Oh! This tastes just like chili!" and happily ate the rest.
Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Sounds like the hospital is taking good care of him, Connie.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Herding cats for fun
Ooops, it took a few days to get my Zombie Marge pix uploaded. Sorry bout that. I had to skip like 555 posts to get here, so I’ve missed any links that got posted in there. Waaaah.
The blue hair is holding up nicely, I quite like it. I’ve found that people generally try hard not to stare at it when I’m out and about, so I keep forgetting that I’ve gone blue.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
That's fantastic!

Our wings are not tired.
Love the blue hair! What fun.
Trying to get my ducks in a row. DH is sleeping because he is getting up at 1am to drive with a couple kids for an 'official visit' to a university in NC for basketball. I'll end up getting up to be sure he packs underwear. Then doing the work thing tomorrow. Tomorrow night going with the boys to see grandma in Ft. Lauderdale, then Saturday going to our west coast to see the other grandparents for their granddad's birthday.
In the meantime, watching Fringe. Trying to not fall asleep because I like the show.
