I thought that was how to beat a polygraph.
It works for that, too.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

[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.
It works for that, too.
I thought Mythbusters said no.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Meeting over. I went quickly from nervous to pissed. I will be posting here from my phone in future.

The world will be a better place for it. Seriously.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I thought Mythbusters said no.
Maybe they're just not very good liars.

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.
It came to me last night, but then today when I dropped Em off at school, I stuck around and ended up chatting with her teachers. Turns out, they need an aide in the class and they want me!! So I've done the paperwork and I'm begging to get put into an already full enrollment class. Tomorrow I go get fingerprinted. Woohoo!! I'm going to (kind of) teach!!
Aims, way to scrounge up a pitcher, water, ice, and sugar to go with the lemons life handed you the other day!
Maybe they're just not very good liars.
Oh, I'm sure Jamie could totally rock the Arthur Deitrich method of befuddling lie detector tests - or at least turn it on its ear by being equally pissed off at every question.
ETA: Ok, I looked it up, and apparently on Mythbusters, they could not beat it.

Trust my rage
I have been fascinated with tattoos lately. Many of my clients have them and I enjoy looking at them. (Uh, the tattoos.) Anyway, I'm not a fan of the neck tattoo unless it's in the back. Which I personally think looks a bit gangster, but some people can carry it off.
I got started on my tattoo thing when we were in Hawaii and a friend told me she had read research that tattoos are a sign of anti-social behavior. (Not my opinion and I actually discussed this on DW/LJ.) Anyway, I've been thinking lately that I would like a tattoo, but I think Joe would freak out. Plus, I dont have a good idea of what I would want.

And in non-tattoo news, Aimee, that is great! I think it's a great way to sort of ease yourself in and it pays!
