[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.

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

Ouch. I keep meaning to give a key to a neighbor. As it stands if I lock myself out I have to go to Milwaukee to get a key.

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

Can you keep a set at your office, Brenda?

Pain is bad, whimpering (and/or cussing) is not.

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

I microwaved some couscous and added sundried tomatoes and beans. It's better than I expected, but still kind of ick.

We`re thinking about getting a combination deadlock.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

What was it Willow said? "Better to curse the darkness than to light the damned candle"?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

We got a combination deadlock and I loooooove it. No more carrying keys when I'm just running around the neighborhood or walking the dog. No more worrying that I will accidentally lock myself out out of habit when I'm just stepping out into the yard to feed the birds and still in my bathrobe. And if, say, I don't want my petsitter to have the combo anymore, I can just change it. I can actually set several different combinations, so if I have guests I can temporarily set one just for them and keep using my usual one. It's a whole lot of nifty.

Does require a battery. we haven't had it long enough to have to change it, but the instructions for doing so were pretty straightforward iirc.

Not using the other lock is key (npi) to this whole system, of course, but that was already my habit.

Also, I think whimpering is fine, but I'm sorry you've got the pain to provoke it, Hil.

Thanks. I'm trying everything I know to relieve the pain enough that I can get to sleep. I've got Stevie Nicks on my iPod, and I'm reading A Swiftly Tilting Planet, both of which usually help a bit. Can't go any higher on the meds.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

day o interviews went well. Was told by boss-of-applied-for-job that I have an impressive resume. Seems like a bunch of nice folk. One red flag for me that I realize has been annoying me the more I think about it. It's a staff position. Staff is a bit of the bottom of the ladder. Viewed on as a servant by some at the school. The faculty get sweet things when they start, set up things. Computer choices type of things. Staff. not so much. I was asking if the production staff have laptops. Nope. Old Dell towers. Um. Dude. tech! gear everywhere. crazy schedules. and you want me tied to a tower? Not even a Mac?
