I like to think of it as "Plot, what plot?"
But that doesn't tell you what's replacing the plot.
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I hope you can find it, Hil. And I hope you feel better very soon.
Speaking of which, more ~ma for Drew that his tube comes out ASAP.
I just joined this Irish language learning Yahoo Group. The conversations they're having right now are making me think Irish is going to be even harder than I thought. I knew that the spelling was really really different from English (enough to seem like it had no rules) but I didn't realize that the syntax is so different and that there seem to be cases.
Here's an example of a literal English translation of an Irish sentence followed by the more accurate translation:
"A letter is at its writing at her to her parents. Figuratively, a letter is being written by her to her parents."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
But that doesn't tell you what's replacing the plot.
Fandom's usually not too concerned with being transparent to outsiders.
Plot, What Plot is what I learned when I first got into fandom.

Timelies! ~ma and felicitations all around!
I adore licorice. I grew up in a large family as the only kid who was allergic to chocolate, so I had to try everything else.
Unfortunately, most licorice is made with wheat, so I cant eat it now.
Back when I was working at the Eureka Theatre in San Fran, I worked with a sound designer who liked my dark and bitter sense of humor. To show his appreciation he gave me some M&M style licorice covered with chocolate candies. OMG they were good!

TubesBeGone~ma for Drew! Dude, that would be awesome. I'll smuggle you in a choco cake with a file in it... wait a second. That's for prison, not hospital. Crap! What do you bake in a cake for a hospital patient?
Got off of work a bit sooner tonight. Still walked a bunch today. Yesterday was the most since getting the podometer. Over 4000 yards! Oy. Today was only 2600. Normal has been 1500-2000.

There's an Amish inn in Wisconsin on the internet.Um, I don't think they are Amish. Looks like a heavy use of electricity, what with the whirlpool tubs. It looks like Amish Furniture makes it an Amish Inn.

Yay for Teppy arriving via airplane with little difficulty! On to the vacationing!
I just ventured downstairs for the first time in hours. My dad walked up behind me, gave me a hug, and asked me to try to be patient so I think he must have figured out what went on. It was nice for him to acknowledge it.
Candy-coated licorice, eh? Good'n'Plenty is a form of that but would still have the wheat issue, I'm sure. Or did you mean chocolate? There's this thing called Licorice Lentils, apparently:
If the gluten is the issue, there seems to be some gluten-free licorice, including this: [link]

omnis, I think you have to smuggle them clean healthy blood and urine samples they can swap in but that probably doesn't go so well in a cake. /evil
Congrats on the walking-fu!

Congrats on the walking-fu!Oy. My arms and legs are very tired right now. Since Friday, I've walked about the normal for the better part of a month. So much to do for a college load in, and a lot more spread out. Thank goodness the blue license plates let me park in green zones without time limits. After dinner breaks, I'd park in the box office parking (I'd do it earlier in the day, except the car would be a melting in the sun!)

All is well that ends in pizza.
Amish Furniture makes it an Amish Inn.
A similar observation was made by Windsparrow upon my showing her the site.

It was actually Friday through today. Long weekend, which I survived with a minimum of tears and Ativan (and just a dash of Wild Turkey for medicinal purposes).
There was way too much excellent food, roller derby, football-watching, and my 68-year-old dad got his first tattoo. ON HIS NECK. (I actually think that the tat itself looks fantastic; I just have some doubts about the placement.
I was welcomed back home enthusiastically by The Boy tonight, and now I'm already up past my bedtime, so I gots to go to sleep.
