'Heart Of Gold'
[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.
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.
Daisy Jane, I just watched Kontroll, and it didn't really hold my interest. It seemed to be a bunch of loosely connected events concerning characters I did not care about. I didn't hate it, and it had its moments, but it wasn't as My Thing as it looked like. I guess I thought there'd be more about the serial killer.
I...just remembered I can't whitefont on my phone.
