We die horribly and painfully, you go to hell and I spend eternity in the arms of baby Jesus.

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.

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

I got another interview. It pays less than the others, and it's in an area of the country that I don't know at all, but the job itself looks great -- a postdoc position working on developing a specialized master's program for middle school math teachers.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I'm packing my suitcase to go to SF. I know I'm forgetting something. Possibly several somethings. I've got my medications, and I've got all the papers and files I'll need for my talk and interviews. Those seem to be the important things that I can't just buy new if I forget them.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Heh, Jilli, I should have known you'd know her! She definitely seems like a really fun person to know. Like I said, I'm enjoying the book, and I do think it's useful as a step-by-step guide. I just think the website is probably more useful in terms of resources and inspiration.

She was the main brains behind the Microspotting site, and interviewed me for that. Then we just started trading email back and forth.

ION, yay, I have a job lead! Which is good, because I'm feeling vaguely cranky today. Even tho' I am not wearing the CrankyBloomers.

OMG, my bitches, I know where I want to get married and it's a totally reasonable possibility and it's not booked and not super expensive and it's PERFECT.

The library! I am geeking out about this HARD-core. I want to get married at the library. And KC's Central branch is this gorgeous old building: [link]

Holy crap, I want this REAL bad. MARRIED IN A LIBRARY! Perfect. Fucking. Happiness.

Jilli, I can't link to it on my phone, but check out the red velvet jacket on sale at the White House, Black Market website. I just bought it and it's gorgeous!

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

A library wedding? Dude. Nerd porn.

Yep. And since we are both big geeks, it would be perfect.

Our wings are not tired.

That's a great idea!
