Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

'Touched'


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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Hawaii, making out, and The Girl are all magnificent things. As are pleasantly acknowledged conversations about privilege in airports. And cookies. Better pain management for sj would be magnificent, too.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

And soda bread!

(It's about to emerge from my breadmaker.)

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

oh, I went to the farmers' market last night - they always make me feel better, with all the good things people have grown or made. I stocked up on some good stuff and had a sun-dried tomato, feta, and goat cheese quiche. And tomorrow morning I'm going to have an almond pastry for breakfast (if I can refrain from eating it tonight). Veggies, and fruits, and salad greens, whole-grain breads, flowers, ice cream ... bliss.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Last morning of camp for the summer! YAY.

M goes back to PA next weekend, which is sad, but no camp next week, so we can have lazy pancake mornings with cartoons, followed by fun pool and zoo time.

His mom reminded him that next week is his last week this morning and he was all "I don't wanna leave!" POUT.

Does it make me a bad person if that makes me happy?

Our wings are not tired.

What she said!

It is cold and rainy here today, and hot and rainy at my home. I think cold and rainy is better. Socks and a flannel shirt have made it all good.

Dry socks after a wet day is simple yet exquisitely pleasurable. Almost my favorite part of any camping trip.

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

Not at all. I think it means you're turning into a really good stepmom.

Compassionately intolerant

I had the most delightful conversation with M last night...we share a love of the 'saur.

I can say, from empirical evidence, Erin is an awesome stepmom.

I hope so. I think I did pretty good for my first time out of the gate!

Even though I let him play with "explosives" and fed him nachos and cake, and let him watch cartoons and play video games....wait, no, I AM awesome!
