'Get It Done'
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'm sorry, Aims.
Wow, Laga. How come I never even thought to look that up? I'm starting to be tempted to join Ancestry.com again.
Do it! Genealogy is fun and totally addictive!
I think the interview I had this morning went pretty well. At least, it felt comfortable -- some of them have felt really awkward -- and the last question they asked was whether I'd accept if they offered, to which I said yes, definitely. They said they'd get back to me within the next few days. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. (Which makes typing a bit difficult.)
I didn't skim! I was just impressed that Laga looked it up.
I was looking at an old 19th century map of the area around my hometown, and had a "hey, that's where that street name came from!" reaction when I saw one plot labeled "Jms. Caton's Farm." The street that farm was on is now called Caton Farm Road.
That's a common way to label streets in our area; the main north-south street in the west side of Joliet is Larkin Avenue, which was named after my great-uncle's farm which lay along a central portion of that road.

The google-fu is mighty in the thread.
I'm thinking of starting up my ancestry.com subscription again. I still think it's outrageously overpriced, but I'm ready to start trying to track down more of the Campbells back into Ontario. I can find cousins in MI that my dad remembers, but I can't seem to find the link between them and my great grandmother. Frustrating.
I'm back from vacation! And I fully admit that I skipped all but the most recent 50 posts. We didn't have the interpipes at the beach (I think the sharks clogged up the pipes), so there is no way I could keep up.
From the last 50, I see that P-C had a good date (HELL YEAH!!!!), and the state of Michigan is fucking evil.
Did I miss anything else good/bad/monumental?
Well, it is never as funny around here when you're gone.
Awwww, thanks!
I'm currently laundering about 10 TONS of sand out of our clothes and towels, and as soon as I finish my PB&J, I'm taking the car to get washed/vacuumed, because it, too, has 10 tons of sand (also salt, which is hell on the exterior).
Soooooo glad I took today off as part of my vacation request.
Happy Birthday, Seska! You birthday tweets were cracking me up!
I'm a Campbell. As recently as my paternal grandmother.
