I hear he's delightfully tall in addition to being sparkley, snakey-hipped, and slutty.
Good god allmighty. I just ... wow. I spent most of the concert gaping in delighted glee.
They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

[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.

Brenda, you've pretty much described a Subaru Outback as your perfect car.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Oh, Connie. That is of teh suck. Much ~ma for your sister.

Brenda you would also do really good in a BMW Five series wagon. The cars are built like tanks and tend to last forever so you can buy one at a great savings that is a few years old. They handle like a dream and have a ton of space and power. I purchased my 3 series with almost 50,000 miles on it and it felt like it was brand new.

Urgh, fuck cancer. A coworker died yesterday. I only worked with her for about four months before the doctors realised that her bad leg was being caused by a brain tumour. She’d been in a hospice in London since, and then a few weeks ago went home to Ireland.
They’ve already promoted someone to take on her duties, but are also hiring a new person too; she’d been doing the work of two people for ten years or so, apparently.
Mostly I’m sad that I didn’t know her better.

In less thread-killingly sad-making news - I'll be going to my first baseball game when we're in Boston in August. There's a day game on G's birthday, which is a Wednesday, which is apparently all the fates aligning because that never happens, or something.
Apparently it's like cricket in that I can drink beer the whole time, but not like cricket because I'm not allowed to chat through the whole thing.

I'm sorry, Connie.

Hil, I've had a Fit for two years now, without a bit of trouble. It's a small car that holds a surprising amount of stuff, and it gets great gas mileage. If you're going to be doing a ton of highway driving it might not be your best bet, but otherwise, it might be a good substitute for the Mini. Mine was about $13,000, which I believe is a bit cheaper than the Mini, too.

Laura, I was being flip - you are a great mom; the remark was entirely Sears' fault. They call forwarded me in a circle of despair. Thank you & ND and everyone who posted for your support.
Pulled muscle and allergies = awake since 4am. Bah.
Hil, we love our Scion, but Not So Much in bad winters.
