[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.

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.

Oh, javachik, I want pizza now too.

If Daniel doesn't stop with the citrus puns, I may need an alibi.

Sorry to hear that you are having trouble at work, Kristin.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I need a brain rewire, I swear. I passed out in my fav recliner, rather early, like 11ish. I was happy about this, because I feel the need for more sleep. Had some relaxing dreams, nothing specific, but I remember feeling refreshed as I was coming out of the sleep. Felt like I slept 6 or 7 hours. Only to discover it was only 1:30. Tried climbing into bed and going back to sleep. An hour of tossing and turning, no success. So, back in the magic chair that helps me fall asleep.

Drew and Pix, I'm sorry to hear about Drew's mother. Lots of ~ma to you and the family.

::joins the tackle-hug Sean pile::

I can resist anything but a tackle-hug!

which Americanization would you prefer: just "she" totally leaving off any form of consonent at the end, or "Sheer", or "Shi(French r)"?

Probably one of the last options - there's still an r there, after all. However, I still don't have a clue what's the French r myself, which might suggest a problem, since I am studying French. But given that most Americans will have a hard time with a French r, you can always come back to "Sheer".

Or you can invent me a nickname.

Once you had a Fluffy, you can't go back.

Now, my lovelys, for the all time favorite question which I don't know the answer to - is the plural of penis penii?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Penises, mostly.

I should try and go to bed.

not sure what a french R sounds like either. Maybe you could record yourself saying your name and upload it for us to listen to. Just an idea.

Ha! Not to be confused with a "fluffer" or "furry", which my sleep deprived brain reread it a few times as. Yes, Fluffy is great for getting me sleep. And I've learned not to fight it anymore. I get far better sleep in the chair, than fighting to fall asleep in bed. No clue why I can sleep in one spot and not the other.

Curious what brought up this question. Thinking about your foursome dream? Something else? Enquiring minds want to know. The answer I found, according to Wikipedia:
The penis (plural penises, penes)

Good night, ita.

If you're still up, I can do Skype now. IJS.

Someone I know is confused. Got an email with "penis's - that's not right, is that?".

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

A French R is more gluttal than Hebrew. A Hebrew R is "softer, by and large," says The Girl. That doesn't make anything very clear. She says they're very similar. I don't know why I hear them as very different, then.

tee hee hee. I just Skyped with Shir. Gotta love the internet.

OK, so we spent a fair amount of time saying her name, which must have been strange for her. As a non-linguistic person, horrible with phonetics, I will say (and Shir is going to hate me) that the Hebrew-to-English pronunciation of the R is closer to a soft L. So it's more like "Shill" or maybe "Shiel". But Shir will tell you there is an R in there, but couldn't decide if the English R sound came after the L sound or before, and my pronunciation didn't help. I blame cheap mic on the cheap laptop the most.

Either way, it was great chatting.

With that, I will attempt sleep again.

I hope you're sleeping.

My name, in transcription, is as following: /ʃ/[i] and then, according to Wikipedia: usually IPA: [r] or /ɾ/ but also /ʁ/ or /ʀ/ in Hebrew.

Knock yourselves out.

And there isn't an l in my name!

no one should ever have to repeat a pap smear. Ever.

I finally finished my taxes. i have big plans of going to bed early to celebrate. the good news: tax credit for buying my home. bad news: couldn't efile, have to do it the hard way, won't be seeing that refund for many months yet. Boo. Hiss. I have a new sewer line to finance! Due by April 10, according to the letter that was intended for me but not addressed to me. Black cat #2 is now sleeping on last year's taxes.
