I fed off a flowerperson, and I spent the next six hours watchin' my hand move.

Spike ,'Same Time, Same Place'


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.

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

Mmm, noodles. (My mom was ordering Chinese food, and I asked for rice noodles with sesame sauce. She didn't know whether I meant the wide rice noodles or the skinny ones, so she got an order of each.)

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

I have no intention of paying twenty to thirty bucks more a month for a data plan, I don't need one of those fancy-schmancy phones with the Internet inside them.
I think that's English, but I don't quite understand the words. I was hesitant to get the iPhone. But the level of frustration in syncing contacts from an Apple was high, so I bit the bullet and did it. Life is all different now. I can't imagine not having e-mail on my hip. And all the cool apps. Heaven.

Trust my rage

I'd rather take a picture of the check and have the iPhone spit out the cash

That would be awesome. But also bad.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

IIRC, it needs to be black tea, not green or hippie fruit tea, because the tannins in the black tea are what make the capillaries contract.

I started to say this, but suddenly it seemed too complicated to explain. I think my over-exposure to passive aggression over Thanksgiving broke my brain. Anyway, it's the tannins from Camellia sinensis leaves that you want.

Be sure to watch out for things with tiny seeds, Hil.

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 love you all. There is showering and getting ready for work in my immediate future, but I wanted to say that before I went.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It's an extension of the new ATMs that can just eat your check and read the amount on it magically, saving you from having to deal with deposit slips and tellers.

Well, except the ATM can read the MICR code on the check. I'm not sure the Apple app does that.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Hey smonster! Thanks for that "sucking at the hind titty" line. I've already put it to good use.

But Mr. Waits does not purvey weak, hind-titty sucking blues to vamp behind Terry Gross and her warm chuckle...

I still do not have a cellphone at all. Yes, there are a few of us left.

My brother and SiL don't have them, either. They claim it's because coverage in Vermont sucks, but that's not actually true, based on my ability to use my phone in Vermont. They just like not being reachable 24/7. (I told them that cell phones turn OFF, but they just pooh-poohed me.)

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

They just like not being reachable 24/7. (I told them that cell phones turn OFF, but they just pooh-poohed me.)

I also find that not answering my phone unless I'm in the mood to talk solves this problem quite nicely.
