Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

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.

Our wings are not tired.

Not to be all one-uppy...okay, TOTALLY to be one-uppy, the SF Giants did it first. :)

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Holy Cow, the Chicago Cubs are doing an It Gets Better video. Is it possible that a professional ballplayer is about to come out?

I don't know about anyone coming out, but I don't think the Cubs are the only MLB team doing an It Gets Better video. I've read that a bunch of them will be doing them.

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

Oh Cool, yay Giants, too! I feel like the big ball sports having gay players is a big step towards equality. I guess you can make a video without saying "I'm Gay".

“Not dead yet!”

So are the Mariners.

Happy Birthday, Plei!

So I went and bought a fitbit the other day--was curious about how it would say my sleep was (in addition to the step-counting etc). Saturday night it said I had 100% sleep efficiency, even though I remembered waking up several times. So I put it on "sensitive"...and last night it said I only slept like, 5 hours out of 9 that I was in bed. Hmm. I'm not sure what to believe!

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.

Happy birthday, Plei!

smonster, I hope your shoulder feels better soon.

How is it supposed to be tracking your sleep?

By movements, basically...(that's how it tracks everything--it has an accelerometer like the iphone). So I suppose if you were having flailing nightmares but still asleep, or sleepwalking, it would be inaccurate. I know that I usually sleep pretty still, so that seems like it would be accurate...except I don't know how "sensitive" sensitive mode is! It's pretty clear to me regular mode didn't capture any of my movements!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I wonder who the first NFL team will be to do a video?

Thanks, WindSparrow. I've been taking ibuprofen, which helps. Believe it or not, this is a holdover from that stupid misplaced flu shot - I really need to do some yoga or something to strengthen it, because every time I overdo it even a little (like, moving furniture up steps and having to do an overhead press) it really hurts.

Yesterday I slept in until 11 am. Today I woke up at 5:30 am and couldn't get back to sleep. So I took Frankie for a long walk in the relative cool (82 degrees) up to the independent coffee place and then back again. Then I fed the animals, and myself, and got back in bed and slept from 9:15 am to about 1 pm. Oy.

Next, I *will* finish redoing my resume, by golly. And then send it out for forwarding.
