Spike: Lots of fuss over one girl. Other things to do around here--important things. Angel: You know that whoosh thing you do when you're suddenly not there anymore? I love that.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[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.

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

Hil, that's a tv format. I'm guessing the remote button got squished on the button that toggles 4:3 and 16:9.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

So, recipes. Laurie Colwin's creamed spinach is here: [link]

Only change I'd suggest is to *either* use pepperjack cheese *or* monterrey jack + jalapenos. (The original recipe is monterrey jack + jarred jalapenos, I usually use pepperjack as a shortcut.)

The mac & cheese I usually make is here.

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

Gah. My hand slipped while I was putting Orajel on my wisdom tooth, and I ended up numbing most of my mouth. This feels really weird and wrong.

New thread! And baby girl! And Barb's birthday! Hurray!

Just one quick comment on the childbirth thing--I'll likely never experience it myself, but I was my friend K's sole birthing coach when I was 21, and it was a truly awe-inspiring, life-changing event for me. I will always be grateful I got to experience it. (Wasn't pretty or pain-free, but it sure was incredible.)

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Good news: I may get to tear up the leave slip I was going to turn in for 5 hrs of vacation this Friday.

Bad news: This means I'm still at work.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

In re Laurie Colwin - I remember reading something of hers in which she wrote about being a student at Columbia (Barnard?) during the 1960s riots. While everyone else was making signs, making speeches, sitting in, she was making tuna sandwiches for them. And reading the wedding and engagement notices in the NY Times. (The others had the news sections and were reading their coverage.)

And, yes, Happy All the Time is a delight.

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

Happy birthday, Barb.

I think there is a squirrel rollerskating on my roof.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
