You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

[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.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

oi, Dainiel.

best part about the snake typo -- it was a correction from a nonword.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Daniel, that really sucks. I hope it doesn't come to anything.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Frankly, I am a very fat man. Maybe thin ex-military types are likely to think I'm that much of a slob.

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

Oy, Daniel.

My sister is coming to stay with me this weekend. I know I should clean up my apartment before she gets here, but I really don't want to. And anyway, I'm sure she's seen my apartment worse than this. I'm pretty sure I've seen her apartment worse than this.

Our wings are not tired.

Daniel, they're asses for jumping to that conclusion.

Hil, maybe try for 20 minutes to just get the worst part cleaned? It's always a nicer visit when a place is at least basically clean...

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Daniel, WTF? He sends that email to your supervisor without even speaking to you first? He takes PHOTOS under your desk? And you've been picking up other people's trash all this time? You were too nice. At least request that they move the communal trash can somewhere else since people can't seem to be bothered to actually get their trash in it. Seriously, man. That's harassment. grrrrr

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I once had an upper-level person decide that my department was responsible for a mess of papers left scattered around the conference room; he came to me and snapped something about my getting there and cleaning it up right away. I went in, cleaned up the mess, then went to him with an armload of papers and asked what I should do with them ... yeah, passive-aggressive, but in that instance it worked.

Daniel, could you put something - like a draft-excluder - under your desk to block the trash sifting in? Maybe if TPTB spotted piles of trash on the other side of the cube wall they might crack down on the people with bad aim?

edited to correct spelling

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Daniel, could you put something - like a draft-excluder - under your desk to block the trask sifting in? Maybe if TPTB spotted piles of trash on the other side of the cube wall they might crack down on the people with bad aim?

I like this plan. A lot.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Checking in, as requested.

Doctor was not at all Dr. McJudgey-Pants. The very first thing he said was, "This is brain chemistry and NOTHING you did in raising her." In fact, he has ADHD. He was very impressed with her printing abilities and her spelling.

But, bottom line is that she does have ADHD. Joe and I made the choice to start off on a very low dose of medication and build up to a dose that helps her in school and hopefully learn how to focus and control her behaviors, and see how it goes from there. I'm still a bit apprehensive about medicating a 5 year old, and Doc didn't push for it either way and actually gave us quite a few pieces of literature on behavior modification and stuff to supplement the medication.

Of course, as she;s ringing the backdoor bell INCESSANTLY RIGHT NOW AND WILL NOT STOP, I'm tempted to give her all 30 days worth right now.

So there's that.
