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.

Hope you feel better frank!

After last nights scooter drama, this morning I called to change my flight to tomorrow (after finding out I can do the stuff thurs/fri instead of wed/thurs which wasn't working)...only to find out tomorrow's flights are sold out. So had to get the ok from boss to stay an extra day and then race the fuck around packing--I thought I'd have all today to do that and laundry and so on! Agh.

Got up v early thinking I could check if later was ok or if it had to be cancelled all together and then Go back to sleep!! But no.

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

I did not know fentanyl was that much stronger than morphine. Good god. They doubled me up on that for my nerve block and I still cried like a baby. I wonder how it ranks with dilaudid.

Also, Kate, welcome back! Can't wait to hear stories and see pics.

Thanks, lady! We'll probably get some pics up this weekend. It's weird to be back at work today. Also, less fun than honeymooning.

So glad to hear about your great date with St. Woot! I gather there's some background info I missed (no way I can catch up on two weeks' worth of Bitches & Natter right now) but he sounds very promising.

I used you and your DH as an example tonight of folks who met on OKC.

Yay! It worked for us! I have a couple friends who have just taken the OKC plunge. Here's hoping for good results all around. Is St. Woot an OKC find?

Shower and shave have been achieved. Marginal improvement (at least I don't feel quite as gross). Now to find my motivation. I think the feral dust bunnies at it.

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

I have reached the Facebook event horizon where I don't want to unfriend anyone but there is too much to keep up with. Stop being so clever and poignant and insightful all the time, people!

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

I just went to the lake for a few hours, which was nice, but kind of boring alone. I read magazines, I swam back and forth across the swimming area a few times, and then there was nothing else to do.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Frank, a shower is a good good first step. Are you a music person? Sometimes I find that putting on the right music goes a long way towards getting me going. If I'm still too cranky for cheery stuff, I go for the My Chem.

Is St. Woot an OKC find?

Yes he is. I'll send you an email or maybe even call and burble at you.

Laga, you know you can hide people without unfriending them, right?

In "I'm not adult, I just play one on tv" news, my water got turned off. I thought it was staying in my landlord's name (as is common here), but no. My landlord claims he told me this, but I am dubious. He also claims he gave me his address to send my rent check, but I just checked my lease and it's not on there. So I have to go pay a $100 deposit to get the water turned back on. And call the COBRA folks, and open a bank account, and a bunch of other onerous tasks. Here we go!

bleah, adulthood.

I know I can hide people, but how do I get them to stop posting so many things I'm interested in so I don't miss anyting? I'm having Facebook FOMA.
