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.

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

The cover is gorgeous, Barb. I predict a happy ending for this book's convoluted journey.

My next door neighbor is keeping her brother's dogs for a month. Mr Peabody is overwhelmed with excitement. He has insisted on going out about eleventy hundred times. It's very wet outside, so every time he comes back in, he adds to the layers of muddy footprints. He and the husky are playing "let's race up and down the fence" and "let's touch noses."

An exhausted dog is a well behaved dog.

Mine, on the other hand, has not gotten her afternoon run today because I am at work and my DH cannot take dog and baby out in the snow. I fear for our slippers.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I hear you, Pix. We are doing the same dance. This time of year is the property tax dance ( last on time payment dates in Dec and Apri) I know that when our income taxes refunds come in, we will have next years property taxes in the bank. but meanwhile I am looking at less than ideal number in the saving account. And if we could get the CC paid off I can see a better place for us.

so I can see the light, but it is just far enough away that I can't find the path. Which is why I was asking meara so many questions about MINT

Thrive to spite them

She's a great photographer and that's actually not my favorite picture from that shoot, she did another where the bride has her hands up and the sash is streaming behind her.

Pictures of my kitties! [link]

And the cat tree [link]

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Wow, askye, that photo is amazing.

Barb, I'm zmayhem on flickr. Pretty please?

“Not dead yet!”

Awww... cuddly kitties!

Big brackets to all on coping with the financial dance. Until our house in Jacksonville sells, we're doing our own version of it, and it ain't fun.

ETA: Done, JZ!

“Not dead yet!”

meara, re: your comment about the whitewashing, isn't it GREAT? I was so, so, so happy. There's just so much about the cover that immediately speaks to the story and gives a good indication about what lies beyond the cover.

Trust my rage

Yeah, we have our share of finance related stress these days. I know me trying to open a practice is the right thing but the lack of mine in the mean time freaks me out and adds a lot of stress to life.
