Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I was proud of myself for getting my to do list done this morning, and getting to Mom's on time. However I left my wallet at home, which pretty much cancels everything else out.

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

The baby name generator knows I watch too much Family Guy. I put in my real last name and got Brian Peter.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Fuck. Water main break at one of our buildings that runs heat off a boiler. I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I finished up some job applications and plans for my SF trip today. Now I need to decide what I want to do with two free days in SF.

I saw two Broadway shows over break. "In the Heights" was really good. "Bye Bye Birdie" was fun, and better than I'd expected, though I thought many of the casting decisions weren't great, and it's a show I've seen a million times.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Oh hurrah! It's all the way up to -4F (-20C)! Almost balmy!

It's a balmy 25F here, albeit damp and windy, and I'm looking for new ways to say "colder than..."

We have the traditional "colder than a well digger's ass," "colder than a witch's tit in a brass brassiere" and "colder than a tax collector's heart," which could be updated to "colder than Bernie Madoff's heart." I need more comparatives, damn it.

Also, Mr Peabody is all stir crazy because I won't go out and play. He has fur.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Aims, has Joe been on the internet again?

My officemate says he has never met a blond Jew. (This came up in a vaguely relevant way, in response to a story I was telling him about someone I know whose blondness and Jewishness were each, separately, relevant to the story, though the actual point of the discussion was that the person I was describing identifies as Hispanic, and the actual point I was trying to make was that there are blond Hispanic people.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

He may have met dozens, he just assumed they were gentiles. He's too scary to ask that though.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Your officemate has never met a clue or a filter, apparently. Also. As well.
