[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.

Many hundreds of posts later...
Happy belated birthday wishes for Drew, Bonny, and Beth.
Lots of comfort and love sent to FredPete & Hubs and Jilli & Pete. My heart breaks for you.
Quick recovery wishes for wee Frisco.
My mother has decided that my sister and I aren't doing enough to find husbands, so she's creating profiles for us on dating sites.
Bwah. I have visions of Hil's mom and Sunil's mom commiserating.
Anne, the storms are crazy scary. Be safe.
I am all alone in my house. Perhaps for the whole weekend. I've had a few weeks of massive stress. Mom continues to make baby steps in the direction of getting better. Still scary. DH had a vicious throat infection that abscessed and had to be sliced and diced and stuff. Dude lost 20 pounds with the lack of eating. Work, insane and busy. And with DH down and out for a week I had a bunch of his load too.
So the kids have gone to visit with friends for the long weekend and DH has gone to Orlando for a basketball tournament. (sub coach taking over for him since he can't yell, but attending anyway) Part of me feels I should work all weekend, part of me feels I should visit my mom since I couldn't last weekend. The part winning just skimmed a zillion posts here, while watching Doctor Who, and taking breaks to read my book. The thought of being by myself for the next couple days, reading, watching recorded tv, swimming, gazing into space, all without having to take care of anyone else except the dog, cat, and fish. Oh my.
Mom says I really should stay put since next weekend is my sister's birthday and I will want to come over then. Also, I don't think I have any of DH's germs, but it would be catastrophic for mom in her present condition.
So a mini vacation!

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
A bad joke that helped me through a bad day. Maybe it will help some of my Buffistas too:
A chicken and an egg are lying in bed. The chicken is smoking a cigarette with a satisfied smile on its face and the egg is frowning and looking put out. The egg mutters to no one in particular, "I guess we answered that question."

Good one, Gar.
Awww, Laura, I wish you were in San Francisco having a glass of wine with me.

Looks as if the worst has passed through the immediate area, thank heavens. Thanks for the good wishes, all.
Teppy, those pictures are priceless!

Hee! Both for the lovely bad joke, and the dog fur dog.
Yikes, it is far easier for me to deal with prospective hurricanes than tornadoes. At least we get a few days warning. I hope there were no injuries. There was a flash on the news about the airport.

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
Want to hear weird synchronicity? In college, my roommate and I had a wee cactus we named Toke, and a fern named Chloe. And then 15 years later, I fell in love with a man with a cat named Toke and a dog named Chloe. Weiiiiiiiiird stuff, man. I told my roommate, and she said that we conjured him up. Which is entirely possible.
I once conjured an Equadoran!
BitD when I was doing standup I had a joke along the lines of, "they say there's somebody for everybody, but with my luck he's 12 years old and living in Equador."
LO AND BEHOLD, several years later, I'm having a romance with a dude... you guessed it. Amazing.
