Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

[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.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

huh, vicodin contains acetaminophen. Learn something new every day! (Mental note: do not take evening dose of naprosyn in same swallow as vicodin ever again.)

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

Morning all. I'm off to Leeds to visit ma peeps. Met Office warnings for heavy snow in that area have been issued. Since the UK can't handle more than about a centimetre of snow before shutting down entirely, this may be interesting. If I get stuck on a train line all day, at least I'll have wifi. Wish me not-falling-over~ma, since my wheelchair is broken so I'm taking my walker + taxis everywhere...!

Edit:

vicodin contains acetaminophen

Oh, I know. I refuse to take the 'cocktail' drugs anymore - I ask for the main painkiller without the acetaminophen. I worry about that stuff!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Stay-upright~ma, Seska!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Mmm. Iliac crest.

Yes, mmmm.

I mean, I can have casting (and, dude, characterization in the book!) issues at times but, lo, thems some Iliac crests. He plays it well.

I a very tired. Need to fall down asleep now. Perhaps to ideas about slinky and more than slightly evil vampires.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I didn't know more than slightly evil vampires hated Slinkies...

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

Well, it was just icy and dangerously un-salted on the roads in London, but here on the train going north it looks like significantly more snow than the UK usually gets. Fun! (Also, please be melted when I get off train, snow. Kthx.)

I love noise-reducing earphones. Ladyhawke on loud while I edit my journal article. Bliss. If a bit cold. Who needs to drive? Trains are ace!

The are. I wish we had more trains with useful times and destinations around me.

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

Ladyhawke's popular in Britain? That's nice. Have you heard the Pnau song Embrace? She does the vocals for it.

She's known. She played an awesome gig in Leeds while I was living there. Very good live.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I'm skipping.

The con was fantastic. Besides being and hanging out with friends, I learned Lacanian psychoanalysis 1x01 and Nietzschean philosophy in sci-fi, what to take and not to take when you're getting deserted a-la Crusoe (what not to take, item #1: Jerusalem. Item #2: talkbackers), how feminism ended/saved the human race on various sci-fi novels and the role of feminists in them, the ecology of the alien in Alien and why it's so great, and how to avoid being assassinated in the future (never develop an eternal life drug. Check). These were just the highlights.

And now, back to homework. Sigh.
