Come on out, River. The nice man wants to kidnap 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.

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

Cel-Ray is great for upset stomachs. I have no idea why people drink it at other times.

My advisor emailed at 12 to say that he'd be in around 1:30.

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

My advisor emailed at 12 to say that he'd be in around 1:30.

So does that mean he'll be in sometime next month?

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

Dear Lord. I'm now not seem to be able to write even a single post which isn't a birthday greeting, on a freaking music board, without academizating it.

Tell me it will all go away when I'll graduate.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I use my kitchen torch to sear the skin of the chicken back to the meat after having rubbing salt and garlic between the flesh and the skin. Traps it, it does, plus extra singing of meat.

Ooh. A must to try.

Good lord, I completely forgot I had a kitchen torch when it came time to broil the marshmallows on top of the cupcakes yesterday. That would have been much better.

He scheduled meeting with both me and another student at 1:30. Each meeting will take at least an hour if we actually discuss everything we need to discuss. He has until 2:10.

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

"Seriously? You just happen to have one on you?"

It's a purse of requirement. I have one of those. Most anything you need? In the purse. Except for a lighter because I flew a lot during the holidays. Though I think my eye drops made it through. It's inevitable that I will forget at least one thing.

I will note that my purse does not contain a mini-torch. Not yet. But the day is still young.

....must be nice to have a job where you can come in at 1:30 and leave at 2:10!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

"Seriously? You just happen to have one on you?"

Hee! I had to pause at this point to laugh and laugh and laugh when Hardison pulled that black light out of his bag and Eliot called him on it. Because I, at that moment, had one in my bag, too. It's probably the same one. It is always infinitely amusing to me when the character with whom I identify does stuff I would do. (See also: Willow, different colored pens.)

Anyway, I don't have a kitchen torch. But I do carry matches, generally.
