I once had a book called something like "Latin for Everyone" (Latin for Everyday? ... something like that). Translated all kinds of amusing words and phrases into sort-of Latin.
All I can remember at this point is that Twinkies are "scintillae".
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

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.

This is my squincy face. Do you see my squincy face?
MY FACE IS SQUINCY, JILLI.
Bah. It's totally fine if it's in Latin! Cass says so!

Hee, if you`re broken, so am I, Burrell.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
My favorite faux Latin phrase is something like "illegitimos non carborundum" (don't let the bastards get you down).

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Cass says so!
I was also going to let you sneak Frank Iero out of Powell's through cunning use of petticoats. I am an awesome adult.
The "fixed" garbage disposal is leaking from the bottom now. Not when I use it, always. Needs to be replaced. They don't have the part. The guy who can order the part isn't in until tomorrow.
My frustrations, let me explain them.
Fuck. I really like the people in the office and maintenance. They are great. But the management company has made it impossible for them to just fix things. I have to put in a service request through their portal, have no idea when (even down to a day) anyone will actually show up and then have to call the office who can't really help me because the system doesn't work any better for them.
Time to write another angry letter. Which would make me feel better but they've never responded to any of my communications. So it's peeing in the wind. Which is even stupider to do as a girl.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Vic, cute video.
My first! (At least, that wasn't just a clip of me performin somewhere.) Someday I'll do one that isn't intentionally silly. (:

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
It's so squinched up, the H went missing. That is my story, to which I am sticking.
Also, Jilli, CASS IS NOT A DESIGNATED ADULT.

I was when we went to see Adam Lambert. Which is kinda terrifying. I was the best we could come up with in that group to be adult? I think I did good that night too.
I have decided to say fuck it and run my dishwasher. There's a bucket under the disposal and I will keep an eye on it until it's done. But I am not just NOT using my kitchen for days.

Always Anti-fascist!
TB, I don't mean to be harsh...he's my brother and I want him to feel better, but he's been totes Obnoxious!Self-Diagnosing Patient so if the doctor got a little tart with him, I wouldn't object *too* much. Because he started this whole thing depressed and self-centered, and what can I say? Pain is not a beauty aid.

You are!
I'm sorry to hear about the dishwasher and disposal woes.
