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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

But she's in Charlottesville, VA (in range of the Snowmageddon), and mentioned that she really wished she had a shovel, so I ordered her one for Saturday delivery.

I'm in C'ville. She could have my shovel. I don't use it anymore; I just call the big redheaded dude with the snow-moving machine. Ask her if she wants the name/number of a guy who does good work for cheap.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Contrast to MFJ: I'm talking with this dude about making plans for the weekend, and I listed the movies I haven't seen but want to - Sherlock Holmes, Up in the Air, Invictus or the Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. He doesn't want to see any of them. Really? Not action or darkish comedy or based-on-real-events or fantasy?

...suddenly I'm not wanting to bother.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Harvey update:

Vet just called, Harvey's urinary panel came back OK, he seems to be a normal healthy 12 year old cat.

She asked if they might run some blood work to make sure his kidney function is okay due to his age, etc. and also if injection or pill would be better with him.

I called Andi, she will call them. They close in an hour, I hope they aren't planning to keep him overnight.

I am heading off to retrieve Harvey from the vets.

“Not dead yet!”

Barb, I did much the same thing for a clutch of Rilke quotes. And then I bought the "right" translations, since I'd had to do second-hand book search on a couple that were OOP.

::sigh::

I just went and bought one well-respected translation (and OMG, how much do I love living in a city where one can readily find such a thing on a local bookstore's shelves?) and just to make double-secret-probation sure of which one I want to use, I ordered a 1953 translation that's supposed to be the preeminent translation. Thank you, Alibris, for making it available for only $5.50.

My dorkitude, let me shows you it.

My agent has been laughing at me all day.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Yeah, smonster. I see your point. What does he want to see (and I swear, if it's "Dear John" run. away. fast.)

“Not dead yet!”

I'm thoroughly charmed by smonster's twitterpation.

And also agreeing w/DJ-- if Other Dude doesn't want to see any of those fine choices and if his choice is, indeed, "Dear John," you need to run away very very quickly.

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

I just got an email that another school wants to interview me.

I have a picture in my mind of a cartoon with a large building bending down towards you and saying, "So, why did you leave your last position?"

Also: it's good to be wanted.
