'Dirty Girls'
[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.
I was in an internetless limbo, but I did get safely to Nashville. It took another hour and microwaving a hamburger to capture Mr Peabody.
We have a very white Christmas in Nashville, and very pretty except when contemplating the sheen of the refrozen streets.
Athiest that I am, I have no objection to heartfelt good wishes in any form, although "Have a blessed day" makes me a bit twitchy. I hope you all had an excellent December 25th. One of the greatest gifts in my life is all of you.
(Fun crazy, not dead parrot crazy.)
My fun crazy was last night. Today was nearly dead parrot crazy.
Now it's Portland raining. I want Time Lords but I need to stay up a long, long time to watch. Unless I can't sleep, in which case, Who soon!
Tonight I was the classy Bitch drinking a nice pinot out of a red Solo cup. In fairness, I was in the bath and I know better than bringing real wine glasses in with me. Well, I know now. Previous trials are why Lee made me buy an acrylic wine glass. But I didn't think to travel with it, so Solo.
I will accept not watching Who if I just fall asleep. Just putting that out there.
I'm attempting to pack for a trip while people freak the fuck out about taking a train in a blizzard.
Dopes. You WANT to be on a train in a blizzard. Srsly. That is the optimum mode of transport.
Totally train. Totally. It's precisely the way I want to go in weather.
Huh no BBC. I guess no Who. Time to court sleepies.
Back from a long day with Tim's family. Merry Christmas, Bitches! (As someone above said, I get a kick out of being able to say "Merry Christmas" and follow it with "Bitches"!)
ION, 3 couples I know got engaged this weekend. (We are NOT one of them; I would never break that news in such a burying-the-lede manner.) That seems statistically improbable.
One of the couples is someone from high school who I'm only Facebook friends with -- we weren't friends in high school, and we aren't friends now, but she friended me and I figured what the hell and friended her back.
So anyway, she posted about her engagement on FB, and of course people were congratulating her, and she replied with "Thanks! We are just one of those couples like in the movie The Notebook! In almost 3 years together, we never broke up even once!"
And all I could think was "Is that...unusal for you? Seeing as how you're 40 years old and not in junior high?"
(Yes, I know that couples -- of any age -- do in fact break up and get back together, and so what my FB friend posted is probably well worth noting, for her. But I still just had to laugh at the phrasing. And also the fact that when people congratulated her on her engagement, her reply was NOT "I'm so happy," or similar, but "We've never broken up!")
Also, we learned that a baby will chase a laser-pointer dot just like a cat will. It was fucking hilarious.

Mom (my friend) was on phone with hubby. She's 6ish months pregnant. Son is starting to be tempermental. I whipped out my green laser, and he was on it like a cat INSTANTLY! Calmed him down, and was very entertaining. D looks at me and says, "I think that confirms it, linebacker, not Rhodes scholar". I felt bad, so stopped. She was like, "oh no you don't! It's entertaining him, and that is what I need right now". Who am I to stop a pregnant mother in the summer?
And also the fact that when people congratulated her on her engagement, her reply was NOT "I'm so happy," or similar, but "We've never broken up!"
That does sound rather like she's trying to convince herself. Oh, well. May they be as happy as they are capable of.
Holidays are over. Whew. They were good holidays, but I'm glad to be home with nothing much I have to do and no one I have to see.
"Thanks! We are just one of those couples like in the movie The Notebook! In almost 3 years together, we never broke up even once!"
Ahahahaha, that's funny. I share your not getting it.
ION, yesterday was awesome, but today is not looking great, as my ex-neighbor is harassing me about my tenants on my cell phone and my sister is sick with mysterious illness, that we don't know if it's caused by overindulgence last night or a flu bug or what.
