So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

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.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

It won't help for blisters that are already there, but if you're getting blisters repeatedly in the same place you could try blister block: [link]

That stuff got me through some serious walking in office shoes when I worked a conference in Dakar a few years ago.

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

I like the idea of having sweater puppets.

Some of those tattoos (most. in fact) are really amazing work. They look great. I, just...getting a tattoo of Bats because your toddler likes him? That's so not how I operate with ink. My relationship to my skin is different. Also, corporate wage slave.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Thanks, all! Much appreciated!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I'm excited to be freelancing, because now I have nothing (but my budget) holding me back from getting the small wrist tat I've been wanting for about 5 years now.

It will be very small, on the inside of of my right hand (my smart hand) and will be the Latin for "choose" or "Choice" -- I haven't decided.

And it will remind me that I have the power (right hand, my doing hand) to make the right decisions in my life.

Trust my rage

Well, I have...a virus. My eye is swollen almost shut, I have swollen glands in plCes I didn't know existed and I get exhausted just taking a shower. My jaw aches, my neck aches, and my back aches. All from a random virus. I have not been this sick since I had mono.

Thankfully my parents are helping with the kids and the judge was okay with me not being there today.

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

eek {{{Nonian}}} I'm glad you have help.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Sweater puppies! Stupid name, but cute.

Nonian, egad. I had some kind of glandular virus once and it was truly miserable. Take care of yourself! Breathe on people who anger you.

Erin, I like that idea for a tattoo.

victor, I hope you win!

Zen, I can't believe you didn't mention anything about ass-hooks. Talk about burying the lede.

Oh, I think that should be a surprise for my hypothetical future boyfriend. Don't you think so? People love surprises!
