Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'


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 wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Nah, I'm still awake although I shouldn't be.

The ThinkGeek site claims it works with *any* telescope but I'd check with them to be sure. Man, that Galileoscope links makes me wistful. We made a version of those in my high school Astronomy class. I kept mine. Somewhere along the line, my mom threw it out. *sad face*

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

eek, Pix. Here's hoping it finds its way out.

I am overly suggestible. I see a plate of cookies on tv and immediately require input of cookies. less than an hour after a large bowl of pasta with homemade pesto (i think i used too much garlic again) and oodles of fresh tomatoes from a friend's garden. it was nommy and very filling and did not require subsequent cookies.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Teppy, I'm sorry I didn't chime in earlier, but I've been thinking about you and your family and wishing I know something better to say than that.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Steph, I'm glad the funeral went well. My thoughts are with you and Tim.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

My brain has decided to PLAN EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD right now . all my usual tricks aren't working. Bah. I have stuff to do tomorrow - but the odds of my brain being useful keep dropping

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

That was me! I am going into work early so I can leave early and I hope go to bed early.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Thinking of you and Tim, Steph.

My uncles took pictures at my grandma's funeral last fall. I ended up annoyed that I'd forgotten my camera and my iPhone.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Oh, Steph, I'm sorry. I should have said it sounded like a lovely service you handled beautifully. I keep being on my phone where it's a pain to type.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Thanks, you guys. I really appreciate it.

Especially since -- color me SO unsurprised -- not a single person has asked how the funeral was, and/or how Tim is, and/or how *I* am (though why ask how I am, since after all, I'm just an outsider).

If they were my only exposure to "Christianity," I wouldn't be real eager to embrace it, unless I was deliberately looking for a lifestyle that would allow me to live like a self-congratulatory smug rude-ass dick.

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.

Teppy, I'm thinking warm, caring vibes at you, whichever kind of punctuation you would like right now.
