I think Jess hit the nail on the head.
And good to see your pixels, ND.
Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust 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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Hat trick:
I just spent $40 at two yard sales and now have THREE BAGS of Duplos and baby-girl winter clothes. And a New Native Hug-a-bub carrier**, a Taggies blanket, and a Snug-a-bug bunting. Everything is pink*. My valiant efforts to raise a gender-neutral household have been thwarted once again by the fact that baby clothes are freakin' adorable.
[*Well, except for the Duplos, which are Duplo-colored.]
[**eta: Holy crap, I just looked up the price of this carrier online and it's over $100 new. Score!!]

Good news about ridding yourself of that gallstone, Drew. I hope this is all and it's nothing but healthy, pain-free days now.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
here's hoping that letter was a scam and not really from the IRS because holy crap that would be a massive screw up of the NOT ok variety.
glad to heard good news on two medical fronts!

All is well that ends in pizza.
I've heard of people setting gallstones into jewelry.
I'm not sure where I stand on wearing something that came from my body.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
We got a letter from the IRS like that once, except in our case, it was $14,000. Luckily (and obviously), we did not owe them that. So it may not be as bad as it sounds.

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.
You know, as much as this year is throwing crap at us right now, it still started with just the two of us on a beach in Maui getting married, so no matter what, it is a good year.
Awwwww. Best wishes on the IRS front.

I'm mildly disappointed that Google doesn't have a logo for today.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Avast! Hand over yer booty!

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I wish their beer had wider (or any) distribution. I mean, you win a gold, it's clearly great beer, so I just wish more people could try it.
Have you watched "Beer Wars"? Documentary on beer in America. Business is stacked against the little guys. THe laws for booze distribution is archaic! Must be reformed. But the major brewers keep bribing the politicians. Oops. Sorry. Mini rant. Watch the flick.
Actually, they choose to not even sell growlers to go, because they're a little fanatical about the quality of their beer, and the owner/brewmaster believes that the taste/quality of a bottled beer is inferior to that of the just-poured draft beer. So I can't envision them ever fighting The Man to distribute their beer.
Steph, I've had that tagline since the Leverage episode where Parker said it. I didn't know it was a line from a movie! What movie?
According to my friend, the Jeff Bridges version of The Vanishing. (I don't watch horror movies, so I can't verify that.)
