It's the alternator, which means I'll be $550 deeper in the hole.
Damn. Can they find a cheaper used/rebuilt one?
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

[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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

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.
If I rub fudge on the screen, will we have to rename COMMA?
Ginger, that sucks about your car. When did alternators get so spendy?
ION wrapping presents is hard work. I need a nap.

SCORE!!!
It was wicked fun meeting Jesse, despite the crowding and the noise (on a Weds. night? Seriously?). Also, I had never heard Nora's bourbon voice before. And we made our train with plenty o' time to spare (though it did give us a scare getting into Salem by doing the long pause before the station).

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Course you do - rich and sexy.

You don't remember saying that ("This is my bourbon voice."), or I wasn't supposed to mention it?
And, needless to say, if the latter, please let me know ASAP.

Ahahahaha! OMG, I do not remember saying that. Man, I'm a weirdo. No problem on mentioning it!

I'd love to hear Nora's bourbon voice or, for that matter, her beer voice.
I did a little checking around and I don't think I can do much better on the alternator. Used/refurbished average around $200 and once you add a battery and labor, you're headed over the hill to the poor house.

Trust my rage
Home with cramps and a sick baby.
But like JZ and bedtime the other day, he will only sleep in my arms for so long so I'm appreciating my sick cuddly baby.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
In "they grow up too fast" news, Dylan evicted all of his stuffed animals from his new bed last night because "They belong IN THE CRIB!!!" So we put them back in the crib and let him sleep with his "big boy pillow" instead of the little moose pillow he's slept with since he was 6 months old.
Then at around midnight he woke up crying because the big pillow had fallen off the bed, and we gave him the moose pillow back. And I felt much better.
