[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.

The status is NOT quo.

I love the desert in springtime! I may need to make a day trip to Joshua Tree next weekend.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I'm eating brunch at ikea to a Kelly clarkson soundtrack (?!?). I have succumbed to the desire to have ikea magically swoop in and redesign my entire house/life. Sigh. But am not currently planning to buy any furniture. We'll see what I get in the marketplace, once fuelled with food (do they put magic "buy me!" crack in the food?)

I'll have to admit at this stage that I have no idea whatsoever what Route 66 is, but a Dylan song.

Which means that someone will have to take me there when I'll come and visit you all.

OTOH, I'm DYING to go there [link] (PDF warning), but my schedule doesn't allow me to go to the whole con. Hope to catch half of the second day, though, and crossing my fingers it'll be free, too.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Hellmouth territory?

Yes.

Shir, Route 66, built in 1926, was the first highway to the west and acquired legendary status [link]

Get Your Kicks (On Route 66) - Bobby Troup, 1946

If you ever plan to motor west:
Travel my way, the highway that's the best.
Get your kicks on Route 66!

It winds from Chicago to L.A.,
More than 2,000 miles all the way,
Get your kicks on Route 66!

Now you go thru St. Looey...Joplin, Missouri!
And Oklahoma City looks mighty pretty.
You'll see Amarillo...Gallup, New Mexico.
Flagstaff, Arizona: don't forget Winona,
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernardino.

Won't you..get hip to this timely tip:
when you..make that California trip.
Get your kicks on Route 66!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Dude, your IKEA (the one in Renton, yeah?) has lattes for $1. Seriously. Premilked coffee.

It's maybe a damn good thing it's far away from me. And that I have one here finally.
