Also, using my mom's old tools. That made me happy. I'm planting daffodils and irises, which she liked. I planted some of her lilies here last year, and they're already starting to come up.
I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

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.

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

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.
Sounds lovely, Zenkitty.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Nice, Zenkitty.

Hey, I just updated my resume and I think it needs serious pruning. It's over three pages. Anyone up for taking a look?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
Yay for re-bedding mom's flowers. What a perfectly lovely symbol of rebirth, growth, and the flowering of hope. I got a big delivery of dirt yesterday (friend's parents were in town with the tacoma so we took advantage of the "haul your own" mega discount - $20 for a truckload of 4way topsoil, compost, mulch and sand!) so my new mini beds (recycled deep drawers) are full and the dents in my front yard from the new sewer and waters lines are all filled in with some leftover for enriching. Imma gonna plant so many pretty bulbs this fall!!!!
Ye gods how i love repurposed drawers for mini raised beds. they are perfect for sprawling squashes (cuz the vines can totally sprawl on the concrete, not taking up valuable dirt real estate, making the fruits easier to pluck) and super easy to turn/till/add compost....plus they are just light enough to drag if for some reason i wanted to. which i don't. I need to hit the liquor store, see if they have some of those wooden champagne boxes for greens. i love growing my own veggies!

In a House rerun I saw yesterday, he turned his cane into a sword and a shotgun (dream sequence--House has gotten trippier since I stopped watching regularly). Betcha that would get you a seat on any public transportation you wanted, Trudy.
That WOULD be fun...
Cattle prod's great until you accidentally stick yourself in the foot with it. Are you up to wearing steel toes yet?
Alas, no. The steel toes will come in when I'm technically healed enough to go in the pit but still anxious about getting my feet stepped on.
Uhhh, I would recommend the kind that have hard plastic instead of steel, considering.
Maaaaaaaan! "Steel toe" sounds so much more badass than "composite reinforced forefoot". Mostly, I want these: [link] I am confident they can be worked into my Killjoy persona.

Yesterday I walked on my new feet a bit too much and wound up having to take a vicoden at bed. Booooo! Today I'm being very good to them. After my long-awaited shower they got massaged with coconut oil and dressed and are being elevated more or less all day. I'm skipping my exercises today because my feet are REALLY pissed off at me and the shower inspired a lot of, um, we'll call it shedding.
Progress is good though. If anyone wants to take a peek at the whole little saga I have a little album [link] (which includes a warning once the bandages come off).
Safe travels, pt, and joints, people!

I have often fantasized about my crutches having sword capabilities, so I got great pleasure from that dream sequence.
