This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

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.

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.

Thanks guys. G woke up and cried a bit and then fell back to sleep. Poor guy wants his mommy and is stuck with me.

G and his parents are lucky to have you in their lives, sj. You are a good friend to all of them, to make yourself available for sick days like this.

Thanks WS. I enjoy doing it, but it is kind of sad when he looks at me as if I betrayed him and cries for his mommy. Because in his 2 year old mind, I made mommy go away.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I saw that ad earlier in the week. Totally adore it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, I saw it earlier. Sphinx look cool on an infrared camera!

How many helveticas does it take to get to the moon?
and
Following up on Ben Terret's calculations on the number of unkerned 100pt pieces of normal cut Helvetica it would take to stretch to the Moon (2,826,206,643.42), Jason Kottke has calculated the type-size necessary to reach the moon with a single instance of the word Helvetica (282.6 billion points -- "the 'h' would be 44,600 miles tall, roughly 5.6 times as tall as the Earth").
Helvetica! In! Space!

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I know you are making light of how sick you are, but anytime the fever is so bad there is delirium and hallucinations, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Thank you and I appreciate your concern, but with me, if I have even two degrees of temperature above normal, I'm going straight to giggling and hallucinations. In fact, the first sign that something's wrong with me physically is that I'm feeling very giddy all of the sudden.
After spending most of the day in bed/on the couch, watching lots of crap TV, understanding that Singing in the Rain is a bad movie and collapsing to sleep every now and then, I have less fever, more focus and a real chance to feel the headache. But hey! Focus! With my eyes all open! (not giddy. Just thankful for the little things that went MIA about 24 hours ago).
