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.
Is anyone else having visions of Dunkirk 1940 in their heads?
Yes, possibly because I just read a book where Dunkirk was a thing (Connie Willis and the whole time traveling historians and such). But this would be a rather...happier evacuation. :)
So weird--I just got a facebook message from the old owners of the house!! Guess that's what comes of having a unique name!! (Basically just said 'Enjoy! We loved the bedroom view, let us know if you want any recommendations on the area")
Be thankful it was for something good, and not "Britons Most Wanted!"
They mostly mocked The Girl's very small Toyota Yaris. Neglecting to mention that we're also taking my Ford Fusion. Which doubles our capacity. Better than the airlines are doing!
Meara, that's nice of them! And I forgot to say, Congrats on being a home owner! I say, grow a couple pot plants for yourself. Its your castle now. rebel!!
Neglecting to mention that we're also taking my Ford Fusion.
Ah! I was wondering about that. If both you go, that's one less passenger to save. But if you both go, both driving vehicles, that helps a ton! Safe travels! and may your new traveling companions be wonderful people (who found a place to shower recently).
How long will the rescue operation take, if all goes according to plan?
m just saying that denying it exists is unfair. I
That would be a valid point if I had not specifically said that anti-semitism exists. And I also specifically said that anti-semitism is a much worse problem in other nations than the U.S.
I can't talk Stephanie into the official Steph corset? Imagine the F2Fs!
I pondered it. I actually love Steph's picture, but I am almost certainly too practical.
And I do need a new tagline. Amych (I think) said that to me before the first time I ever went out after Ellie was born (so, December 2005).
How long will the rescue operation take, if all goes according to plan?
We're leaving at 7am Friday and returning around 9pm the same day. It's do-able. (Or it would be if I weren't due in four different places between tomorrow and Thursday...) Two of our guests managed to get seats on the train to Dover instead, so we're down to two. But we're hoping there'll be other takers as time goes on.
ETA:
That would be a valid point if I had not specifically said that anti-semitism exists.
I actually didn't mean you. I was talking about people who do deny it.
I saw an article this morning about how the French were turning back a bunch of private boats because they didn't have the right permits to land.
So far today, I got several more rejections, sent out two more applications, and have not heard back from my advisor. Also, for some reason, the mess in my apartment is really bothering me right now, whereas I usually don't even notice it, but I think I'm too tired to clean.
meara, yayayayayayayay on the home owning!
quester, go you on the going back to school!
Oh, man, I'm so tired and punchy I feel like the Queen in Dressed to Kill. "Hello, oh, you're a plumber, what on EARTH is that?"
Plus people keep trying to get me in trouble for shit I do right at work, which is both frustrating and almost amusing since I do screw up, mostly by slacking, but - not on these occasions! People, oy.
