I love the "Von Pilsner" last name, but it does make me think the first name should be "Baron".
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.
I signed up for the paid version of live strong this morning. Maybe actually spending money will motivate me to try and lose the weight. My knees aren't getting any better, and the scale continually going up isn't helping them at all. I was 40 calories over with what I ate yesterday, which I don't think is that bad.
hoping that next year we can rent at the same time you do so K can claim her right to world domination, also.
THIS.
Uhm! I can haz? Plz! [link]
DJ, Clockwork Couture has the same boots for $10 less. [link]
Toe stuff, whitefonted for the moderately squeamish:
My toe won't stop leaking plasma. It's not infected. It doesn't really hurt. It's just irritating. I'm on my third band-aid today already, and this is possibly the stupidest reason ever to want to go home, and yet I do.
Yeah, Dana, I can see how that would be icky enough to make a person wish she could be not at work.
ETA: I'm picturing the reason for this, is that your toe had a transporter accident, and this is just a wacky by-product of how your molecules got put back together.
I skimmed a lot. Jessica, huge congrats! And whoo-hoo to DJ on getting the India trip!
Laga, did you find a home for your kitty? Because I was *this close* to flying to California to get her.
Sean, I'm enjoying the hell out of your vacation updates! It sounds wonderful!
Posey is a doll, and if renamed should become Parker, in the opinion of someone who just named her new netbook Parker (because it is the thief of my time).
So I've been lurking a lot due to work and family things. And over the past couple of months watching people here take risks and try new stuff, I have been thinking a lot about going back to school for a phd kind of... which is nice to think about but a 'thanks but we don't need you right now' on a small project yesterday and a whole set of requests on a largish project that do not make any sense and make redundant a lot of things I've done lately have me wondering if applying for grad school and getting rejected is going to make bad even worse.
On the plus side, I've survived at the vc-craxy job for an amazing 12 months and have done a lot of cool things and worked with some very talented people and yet? really am ready for my life to stop resembling a strip from The Oatmeal so much.
IOW today = epic fail
