That's one spunky little girl you've raised. I'm gonna eat her.

[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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm deeply amused by the cute and cuddly sasquatch. It's only slightly less funny to me than a stuffed Cthulhu.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

One commenter said that the mascots were a good representaton of BC because whoever created them must have been smoking a lot of BC bud at the time.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

There's a quiz on the Web site where you can find out which mascot you are. (I love that in that graphic, the laptop plugs into a tree stump. Truly Canada is a magical place.)

I'm Quatchi.

(Also, Mukmuk isn't actually a mascot; he's a mascot fanboy. No, really. Well, okay, they call him a mascot "sidekick," but it comes down to the same thing. That's why he has that foam finger. No, really.)

I was just reading that, Steph. There is a set of the four of them downstairs that I've been eyeing, even though I know they are expensive. But they are really cute!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Thanks for all the brackets. She had a good last day. I held her lots and even took on on the porch wrapped in a blanket. I was so glad the doc agreed it was time.

I took a long nap and am basking in the healing power of the Bomer.

Mostly lurking...

I'm running an "Olympics" camp this week at my school. We've actually spent a lot of time on the mascots. They're quite fun. I even have their story book, which the kids quite love. I think Sumi is their favorite mascot.

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

I was supposed to meet with my advisor at 1 today. My bet for when we'd actually meet was 1:45. He came to my office at 1 and told me that he had to finish something, but it would just take a minute, and he'd come back when he was done. He was back at 1:25. So, better than I expected.

Oooh. A university where I applied and didn't get the job just sent me an email saying that they just got authorized to hire another person and they invited me to apply for that job. The job that I originally applied for is one that I'm not quite qualified for yet -- they might hire someone right out of grad school, but it's more likely that they'd hire someone who's been working for a few years -- but the new one is a slightly lower-level position that I'm definitely qualified for.

WOE! I can't watch Leverage, Netflix won't let me yet! Why? WHY?!?!? It always is up by Thursday evening.

They also decided today that they were not very interested in curling.
