[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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm waiting for my niece to get old enough that I can babysit for her without other people there. It's not safe at the moment, as I can't get up the stairs in my sister's house to change her etc. Maybe she can come and stay with us a in a year or two. Would be very cool.

The friends I babysit for are super cool about bringing diapers and extra changes of clothes for the baby downstairs so that I don't have to go up and get them. The only problem being that their only bathroom is upstairs.

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

Matilda got her lullabies and Christmas carols mixed up this morning and began singing to herself (to the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star).

I'm kind of spacey and not-concentrating tonight, so I'm sort of alternating between books. Right now, I'm reading a few pages of New Moon, then a few pages of The Sexual Politics of Meat, and so on. I don't think either book was meant to be read like this.

Oh, and I brought in some stuff to the tailor yesterday, to get sleeves and pant legs shortened. (I usually do it myself, but these were complicated, with linings and cuffs and stuff.) He asked me what I do, and I told him, and he said he didn't know that girls could be mathematicians -- he thought it was only guys.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now I'm wondering too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You should have told him you thought sewing was a woman's job.

Hil, please tell me you replied with some version of this!

I just rolled my eyes. He was old, and arguing didn't seem worth it.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

{{{smonster}}}} Seriously, don't read his emails during the next three day. Set your email to filter anything from him (or his friends) into a folder that you can look at when you are ready and won't see collecting until then. Everyone needs a cooling off period...you already set the parameters, so you get to uphold them.
