Don't worry, I'm not gonna start any sword fights. I'm over that phase.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.  

[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

After having observed him closely for a period of several hours, I conclude that Ryan remains full of awesomeness.

Phew.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I am thinking about going to my yearly boondoggle next month at a spa/resort for one of my editing gigs without husband or baby

Doo eeet. You need to look after yourself too.

Phew.

I know! It was on the knife edge, then he started giggling and playing peek-a-boo with his cuddle toy when I put him to bed. Way to come through in the clutch, tiny person.

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

Damn you, J. Peterman. How dare you have such lovely clothes that I would probably buy every single item in your catalog except that you don't carry plus sizes. You mock me, sir. I'm gonna lose 30 pounds and NOT buy your clothes, so there. Of course, when I've lost 50 pounds, then I will, so, you know, you should be sending me dextroamphetamines or something.

Damn. Missed.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

We're at orientation. Heard an awesome talk on the history of the neighborhood and wetlands and storm. I learned some new things, even after three years. Now in safety training. Can't wait to get to site and start working!

Nora's friend's luggage got lost, which sucks. And I managed to bring only one leg of my zipoff pants. So we will need to find a thrift store or something.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

How awesome is social media? Today I've been virtually attending a 'digital researcher' conference at the British Library, via the magic of uploaded talks/slides on the website (for following the conference presentations), twitter (for networking with participants who were physically there), and various online directions that people's ideas have sent me. Fab. And accessible!

{{{Shir}}} - continuing good thoughts for you, the doggy and your whole family.

Rather than clutter up Bitches with more of my family drama, I will instead provide a link: The Locket That Won't Die: Grandmother Edition.

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

Liese, all best thoughts for the SO, and for you.

Ides, man. I'd overlooked that fact.

P-C, I'm sorry you had the meltdown, but I'm glad you stuck to your guns. I guess it was good you had virtual people to slaughter in revenge. It will get easier to be the calm, rational grownup in your family the more you practice. I promise.
