[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.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
you may love what you are doing, but there are plenty of times there are assholes who make it not fun. And in theater world, the 'hurry up and wait' can get old real quick. So, shoot to kill does come to mind at times.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I wish I could say that.
In my defence, there's a good reason I can't usually work more than a few days in a row. (When I was healthier I regularly did eighty hour weeks. It's almost like there's a connection...!)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
My hillbilly kinfolk all just screamed in terror, though they don't know why: I am eating gluten-free biscuits and vegetarian "sausage" gravy.
Verdict: pretty damn good. (Well, I've been making the veg. gravy for years now, thanks to living with a vegetarian. The GF biscuits are a new attempt, and turned out pretty well. Kinda dry, but when you drown them in faux-sage gravy, that doesn't matter so much.)

Eh. Only if you've got a pre-existing rare genetic condition you never knew about.
ETA: Yup, some gluten-free stuff isn't bad. I eat a lot of lower-gluten stuff, too. Rye and spelt make good bread.

I baked the biscuits myself, from a GF baking mix. So far it's yielded *really* good banana bread, rather good blueberry muffins, and these biscuits, which are good though dry. Like I said, though, the dryness doesn't matter with gravy; however, I don't think I'd be thrilled with these to have alone, or as a vehicle for jam, because they want to crumble as soon as you look at them.

Properly gluten-free bread does rather enjoy falling to bits, yup. I'm forever scraping random bits of it out of the toaster. It's better toasted than not. GF cake always seems nicer than wheat-based cake, though!

EPIC WATER FIGHT!!
Having a kid around is fun. I just wreaked major hose mayhem on two wusses armed with water derringers. (AKA DH and son)
I haven't gotten in a hose water fight in YEARS.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Erin, that is awesome.
First world problems, summer edition: I need to eat some protein, but all I want is fruit and ice cream. Last night's dinner was cantaloupe and an ice cream sandwich. Tonight may be heading that way as well. Hrmph.
