Congratulations to Amy Parker's Ken!
You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

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.

My sympathies to your family, Burrell.
Congrats to Kenny! Geez, what's with these Buffista sprog growing up and taking over the world? Well, actually, that's probably a good thing because I really don't think my generation is doing such a bang up job myself.
Happy Mother's Day to all the 'muricans. Let the pampering and spoilage commence.

Mostly lurking...
Um, I'm not quite sure how this just happened, but I seem to be on my way to a BBQ at the Guy's dad's house.

Congratulations, Kenny. I would have liked to have been there.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Wow, congratulations Kenny! I can't believe he's a college graduate. Unpossible.
Happy mother's day everybody! I know the day is set aside for "mothers" but I always think it should be set aside to honor "mothering"--all the people who care for others, be it their children, their pets, other people's children and pets, friends and family, the ill and the convalescent.
And thanks for the kind words. It means a lot to me.

My tweet for this morning says that my mother gave me life, but did not teach me to live or to be happy. Other people's mothers did that, and I am eternally grateful.
A client sent the sweetest email today, thanking me for 'mothering her into health.'
See? That's the stuff I live for.
Happiest of thoughts and days to all the mothering and mothering-adjacent Buffistas. Which pretty much includes everyone, right?

“Not dead yet!”
Oh my heavens-- congrats, Kenny!
Happy Mother's Day to not only the biological moms among us, but the many who do such a wonderful job with the mothering and the nurturing of families. From that standpoint, Buffista Island is rich, indeed.
Family made me breakfast this morning, taunted me with promises of swan butt jewelry just to see me blanch in horror, and in a bit, we're going to a ball game. Life is good.

Happy Mother's Day, Bitches!
Nowhere else in this 'verse could I say that!
Job update: I survived my 1 week trial and have been asked back for a second. The guy who is training me to be his assistant went out of town for Fri, Mon-Wed, and the parents were concerned that I would not have enough to do. Well, if Friday is any indication, I will have plenty to do! The place is insane and the organization is individually optional.
Once I get a better handle on things, I will try to impose a bit more common sense to what I can. If they hire me permanently, that is.
I've bought gas twice in the last week! I must take the interstate to work and the speed limit is 70 mph so it is eating gas. I checked the oil yesterday and was almost dry. Eeeeek!!!

Congrats to Kenny!
Go you, vw, with your mad dating self.
Power on quester with the new job!
I am wiped out and just now aware of the outside world. Had a good work team in this week; the kids loved them. There`s a wildfire down on Apache and at least one of my students had to evacuate. And I have a ton of laundry to do today.

Roller-Women!
Members of Scare Force One were out in front of my house this morning, handing out invites to their May 14 bout with DC Demoncrats. We had a lovely chat about them being in love with my dog, but when on the spot, I completely blanked on your noms du skate. I felt so stupid!
Anyway, the crowds seemed to be enjoying them and visa-versa.
