And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

[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.

Thrive to spite them

Kate I'm so sorry.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

{{{Kate}}} - pass some of those along to your boy and his whole family. How awful.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Kate, that's horrible. I'm so sorry.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Kate, I am so sorry.

Our wings are not tired.

Kate, I am so very sorry.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

That's awful, Kate. I'm sorry.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

So sorry, Kate.

The Biscuit is a rez dog, so there's no real knowing what breed. But he's primarily Australian Shepherd according to the vets. They also gave him a birthday, which just happened last month, so we celebrate even though we don't know for reals.

When we get him a bit more consistent, we'll totally post piano playing videos. That's what the Flip was made for, right? And also the internet.

The status is NOT quo.

Yes, this!

Speaking of happy-making puppy videos, I present two more. Both are under 30 seconds.

The first is my friend Cricket, who sometimes lurks around here under the name cricket_sound (I think), bonding with Kaylee by crawling into her bed: [link]

The second is Kaylee learning to play fetch. Sort of: [link]

ETA: Sean, I'm on my way to pick you up for Operation Puppy (to ease those post-travel blues).

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hee! That's the awesome game we play called "One Dog Ball." The initial retrieval is quite enthusiastic. It's the return that seems dubious. Because sometimes I do not in fact throw the ball, but instead put it away in the toy basket! One cannot stand for that sort of risk. Even though it comes only after hours of throwing and throwing and throwing. So yeah, One Dog Ball is probably his favorite game.

We did teach the command "Give it!" which doesn't work. Instead, he gives it on the inevitable follow-up, "Hey!" so we have apparently taught that the former is the warm up command and the latter is the actual one. Oops.
