Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

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.

Always Anti-fascist!

Somehow, I can picture some Indians having a huge laugh over getting white people to buy their uncle's sacred lawn clippings.

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.

Looks like Triloka offers a variety of blends for smudging and other purposes. Here's the website: [link]

white sage, lavender, and cedar

That sounds lovely.

I don't bother using sage or any other incense, because Pete hates the smell of them all.

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

I'm loving that idea.

Seska, I hope that wasn't an overload of helpfulness, and now you are having to say "thanks" when what you really want to say is, "shut the hell up".

Heh. No, not at all. It's all good ideas. I just have to see how things develop. (Believe me, if I wanted to say 'Shut the hell up,' I would. The joys of having an autistic spectrum condition. I say what I mean!) And you really are all wonderful.

And I've found silverfish living in one of our carpets. It's such a good thing I had two glasses of wine after church!

(I really don't like silverfish. they are the one insect that will send me shrieking out of the room)

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I like the smell of burning sage for a few seconds, but then it starts to bother me. With my allergies and asthma the smell of anything burning really bothers me.

3.5 weeks in to this ick and my voice is still very fragile. I really can't handle having to scream at callers, which i've been doing waaaay too much.

caller on the side of a loud, windy freeway: "i can't hear you, speak up"

me, shouting into my headset, which i am holding so close to my mouth that it has chapstick it: "get inside your car so you can hear me"

caller: "can't hear you, speak up"

me: "i'm yelling, get in your car and out of the wind"

everyone around me is laughing. i had to hang up in order to cough up half a lung after all that screaming and then still had the call the *&^(*&%*&$^^%& back to actually handle the call. grrrrrrrrrrrr.

I see that. I have more of a problem with spiders.
