I just realized that our cleaner calls me "Mady".
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

[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.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
huh ... I use my middle name - which is a family last name - instead of my first name for everything except legal papers. Which, needless to say, causes all kinds of problems from people who can't deal with a woman having a name that's usually a man's.
In a previous job, one of our clients adamantly refused to accept that I could have that name so called me "Pat".

Our wings are not tired.
I get phone calls all the time asking for "Anita Crawford" and I just say there is no one here by that name and hang up.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Not to change the subject, but how long after the sell-by date is it safe to use eggs?
In general, at least a month. According to this [link] you can easily check for freshness by putting eggs in water - the ones that float are stale, and may be on the way to spoiled.

I don't think of you as your first name. It would be wierd to call you that. I mean, I know what it is, and I would be able to refer to it if necessary, but you're not that, you're Todd.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I get phone calls all the time asking for "Anita Crawford" and I just say there is no one here by that name and hang up.
That's what I do whenever I get a call asking for "Mrs. Pete" or "Mrs. Hubs." If you want to make it that obvious to us that you're a telemarketer....

Always Anti-fascist!
People like that mispronounce my name so badly that I can say "There's nobody here by that name," and not lie.

The boyfriend got a lot of points when he sent me an unexpected gift last week ("for being a wonderful girlfriend"): caffeine molecule earrings. But the best part was the note: it started with "to the one and only javachik,..." Since he has never really "gotten" the online forum thing, it was meaningful to me that he used "javachik".

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Thank you, Andi!
