'Hell Bound'
[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.
omis My aunt put up the same thing.
There's a "I'm flying this flag to SUPPORT" if you want to add that.
I kinda went into overkill in response to my aunt - I posted a SHAME SHAME thing about the Gainesville church that is planning on burning the Koran on Sept 11th.
And also a quote from a former Bush speechwriter pointing out that Obama is President to Muslims too, including those in our Army and those working with the coalition forces.
At the grocery store today, and old lady complimented me on being frugal when she noticed me pick up a can of Del Monte tomatoes, put it down, and then pick up a can of store-brand tomatoes and put that one in my cart. It was a bit weird.
His name is Gunther. He kissed me 3 times!!
Nobody deserved it more.
Awww!
I went to visit this little sweetheart today [link] My friend C is planning to adopt her. She's so wee and skinny and obviously just needs somebody to love her and squeze her and call her George Sparrow.
::flounces in to whine a bit::
The dogs must have dragged through a wasp nest outside because when they came in (straight to my office, as is their habit) there were at least a half dozen of the little bastards clinging to the dogs. I didn't even notice them until I heard Jasmine snapping her jaws and I looked down and saw one on her flank. Then another flew out from under her that I stomped on. Then I noticed Pisces doing the same thing.
That's when all hell broke loose. The dogs trying to eat the things, me trying to clobber them. Normally, I'm not too squeamish with wasps-- not my favorite thing, but I can stay calm enough to stomp on them. However, all bets were off after one flew into my hair. I don't think I've screamed that loud since childbirth.
End result, all critters dead (thanks to intervention from Lewis who's even worse with bugs than I am, so he was definitely very brave) and I am now coping with the first sting I've ever suffered. In my life.
On my scalp.
The upside is, I don't think it got its stinger fully in me, since there's not a lot of swelling, but it definitely hurts. I'm also feeling decidedly skeevy and in need of a hot shower.
I'm also feeling very pitiful because did I mention it hurts?
Can you apply a paste of baking powder to the site, or is it too much of a pain with the location?
Too much of a pain, especially with how long my hair is now. A friend suggested apple cider vinegar to at least neutralize the worst of it, so I now smell like a salad, but the sting has subsided.
Definite shower in my future though. And Benadryl. Which will make me completely stupid.
Barb -- ice. ice is the only thing that really helped me not feel the sting for a bit.
Erin- O , just hugs .
Aw, people. Sorry for the crap end to the weekend.
