[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.

(I totally shouldn't laugh, but I just heard my boss say, "Spare the fuck out of me!")

{{{{Sara}}}} I hope she is feeling better soon. Poor thing.
"The king"? That would be very funny if only you didn't have to deal with the plumber. Because, seriously -- calling another man "the king"?
I think he means it in the "of the castle" kind of way, but even TCG was looking at him like, "WTF?"
sj, is he at least a competent plumber?
Well, this will be the second time he will have to fix the toilet, but nsm. However, he is a friend of the landlord, and we're not paying him, so I really don't get much of a say. I just wish he was coming after TCG came home from work, so I could make him deal with him.

Our wings are not tired.
Poor Sara! I hope it resolves quickly and that she sleeps through the whole thing. Ouch and yuck.
Heh, DH calls himself King of the castle when he wants the kids to laugh. He even does it in a big booming voice. Fun times.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I tend to regard sexist or just old school types as relics of a bygone age, so when they call me the "ball and chain" or whatever I treat it as a show, kinda like a living episode of The Honeymooners. I don't have to live with them, so if they don't mean any harm and are just clueless, I observe them. A lot of them are contractors who have to go into a lot of people's houses and this is how they break the ice, by using humor that went out of fashion in the 50s. Even younger guys can sometimes do this.

Yeah, this guy is not old. I can deal with it fine in old people.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Poor Sarah! Amy, a friend's daughter's ruptured ear drum recently healed itself without surgery. I hope she's ok and can heal up after this. Ugh.
Teppy, I can't believe those people you work for. What assholes. I also like Sparky's suggestion. And when they explain it to you, just fall back with the "I don't find it funny" statement. What fucking assholes.

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.
Poor Sara. Much ear~ma for her.

Because books.
Poor Sarah! Amy, a friend's daughter's ruptured ear drum recently healed itself without surgery.
Oh, they all do. Well, 98% of the time or something. My eardrum ruptured twice as a kid, and I can hear fine!
Thanks for the good wishes, guys. She's actually the most charming little sick patient ever -- very snuggly and sort of content to sit and watch TV and color. Not at all whiny, which is a nice thing. The only bad day was the day the eardrum (we think) ruptured, because the pain beforehand was really intense, and she was just beside herself.
