Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

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.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I have to wait until I get my masters (all extra money is being sucked up with tuition!), but I am definitely going to London as my graduation-gift-to-myself sometime in early 2014.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

Kate! I had a dream last night we were walking around NY together.

...IT'S A SIGN.

Or, you know, given that I usually dream things like the disembodied, floating head of Brad Dourif is chasing me around the backyard of my childhood home, maybe not.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

the disembodied, floating head of Brad Dourif

That was also me, btw.

Now everyone at the bar thinks I'm insane because I just spat beer all over my iPhone. Well played.

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

Ugh. I'm in a lot of pain at the end of a day of teaching. Seems like it's worse this year than it was last year. Do not want.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, that's no fun, Hil. Is there something different about your classroom environment this year?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

So...it's probably wrong that flylady sent me an email telling me tomorrow is anti-procrastination day, which caused me to decide I could wait until tomorrow to do the task I was sitting in front of right now, right? Because then I'll be anti-procrastinating! It'll be part of the plan!

Did good with my 15 minute timer, though.

Liese, it totally makes sense in my brain!

Amy, I meant to ask in the other thread and forgot while I was typing--why are you drinking a $9 beer? Is it made of magic?

Not really. Actually, in general, it's better this year -- all my classes in the same room. There are a few stairs to deal with, which I didn't have last year, but I've got stairs at my house, so adding a few more at school doesn't seem like it should make a difference.
