I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Aww, yay Trudy health.

Aww, yay Burrell no-longer-a-baby.

Yeah, your cable hookup sounds hinky, smonster.

We need to re-gravel our driveway, but I don't think that's happening anytime soon.

Well, that didn't last - my cable's out because she had to run the line through tree branches and the breeze has already disconnected it.

Yikes!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Inorite? Plus, it was literally draped over the CUBE. I pointed out to her that they would have difficulty loading it out and she was like, oh no, it's fine, there's plenty of slack.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

When did "conservative" become synonymous with "Christian"? I just read an article that stated Chick Fil-A is closed on Sundays, a reflection of the company's conservative roots.

Yeah, you're gonna need someone with a better vision of what's gonna work and what's not to do the repair/re-install.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Laga, what I'm wondering is when "Christian" became synonymous with "fundamentalist super-conservative". I'm not, my church isn't (I think I posted that the bishop took part in the Pride Parade this past Sunday). grrr

Sad, cute baby butch is way hotter when *competent*...

I'm back! And though she may not be super-competent, I can report that she takes direction well. I braced her ladder (against that sketch pillar, Nora!) and made helpful suggestions on how to best use a broom to get the wire looped above the branches. I think she knew it was going to come down, but the call had already run way long this morning and she was hoping it wouldn't fail so soon. It's much higher now, and shouldn't be a problem. I hope. I think a truck took it out, not the wind.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Speaking as an "old but still got her fingers crossed that she'll pull it off" chick I think its important to hear the "it went fine" side as well. Sensitivity is great and important and I'm all for it, but "problems" aren't the entire story. I've known several people now who were shocked that they didn't have any problems conceiving after 35. Infertility at that point doesn't become inevitable, it just becomes more likely.

My grandmother had her first (and only) child at age 38. This was 1947, so no fertility treatments, and no problems that I know of.

When did "conservative" become synonymous with "Christian"? I just read an article that stated Chick Fil-A is closed on Sundays, a reflection of the company's conservative roots.

I noticed similar things when articles were talking about organizations that lost money to Bernie Madoff, and a bunch of them would say things like "liberal organizations such as ..." and then the list would include a few actual liberal organizations and the rest were Jewish community groups.
