I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

[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.

I think you are all right...and Burrell, that is the thing.

I really care about her and I don't think she's spiteful. But, yeah, the thoughtlessness piece is what's getting to me.

I've already mentioned that I'd appreciate if she'd wait until she's finished her meal to call...the crunching/gulping noises are kinda gross...but that hasn't really sunk in.

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

Yeeeeah, I don't think calling while eating is the best idea. I recall doing it once, but it was with a friend I knew would find it hilarious and enjoyable.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

About the calls: you could always say you'd rather call her back later at an agreed-upon time, then make a point of doing it.

Yeah, especially with the time change, calling my friends on the east coast when I'm in the car or walking somewhere is pretty much when I call them!! On weekend days, occasionally, but, I figure they're busy then too!

I like it. I'm on it.

Oh my, I hope I didn't kill the thread with my whining.

Nah.

Had an awesome dinner. Eggplant Marsala, which I would have assumed would be totally common, a la eggplant v. chicken parmesan. And yet, about three recipes online. None of which I used, me being me.

Also minted peas, with mint from the garden and fresh shelled peas from the farmers market. Nom. This prompted the discovery that I have yet another cat who is mad for peas. WTH, cats?

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

I'm in the 2nd half of the Ger vs Aus match. Sad to see Aussies getting their butts kicked. All I can think about is, those stupid horns the audience is blowing sound like a nasty swarm of bees.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

omnis, after watching 1.5 games, I had to stop watching. The horns! I actually sighed with relief when I changed the channel.

I think they are more annoying than the "Thunder Sticks" at the Angels baseball game. And if both fans are blowing, how can you show you are cheering for your team? I guess I'm looking for logic in football.

ION- I think I left Dallas too soon. The Sound Designer that is working on "It's a Bird, It's a Plane, It's Superman" at my old job, well, he just won the Tony Award for Best Sound Design. Hats off to you Robert Kaplowitz. Congrats.
