Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.

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.

Our wings are not tired.

I love that picture of Coop. His expression is priceless. That's frame-worthy.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Here it is past 4:30, and maintanance guy has not called yet. So I call him. "Oh yeah. I've been down stairs working on these doors. I couldn't find a replacement hose with out a picture..." Bunch of BS. Dude. That is pretty much all weekend waiting for you. I'm quietly pissed. The dude is nice guy, but this is getting close to a raw nerve. So I said, "when will this be fixed". "When are you off again" "Saturday. Let's schedule a time. How about 10am on Saturday" "OK, that sounds good". Fucker better fix it, or I'll be pissed. I've been here 3+ months!

But speaking of being a jerk. >[link] Mooom! Erin is teasing us with natural ice cream! No fair!

Omnis, I think the problem is that you're striking an iconic James Bond smug pose, but without that context, it just looks a bit smug. Context is everything sometimes. Most times.
That's what I was suspecting, so I left it up there.

Omnis, I'm glad I'm not the only one having absolutely no luck with OKCupid. So sick of the whole thing, actually.
Yeah, I'm making a concerted effort to try. But it sucks all around. Not sure if it's the profile, the pictures, the notes I send, or just horrible at picking someone who would pick me. Haven't given up yet. Yet. But frustrating all the same. I'm not a bar person. And I reallly realllly reallly suck at asking women out. I am so not a player. But also hate being alone.

ION, just watched "No Impact Man" docu flick. The dude was a little crazy. I like the notion. And a lot of it was cool. The two things that made me go "really?" was no toilet paper, and no fridge (no power). Dude. Farmers Market is only on the weekends. You have a baby. How do you expect to keep food fresh all week? A cooler? And where is the ice coming from?

Mostly lurking...

I love that picture of Coop. His expression is priceless. That's frame-worthy.

Yeah, absolutely. The thing I love most about that one is that it captures the twinkle in his eye--that twinkle that comes just before he does something he knows he's not supposed to do. If I remember correctly, he shot out of the courtyard with a certain auntie chasing him right after that picture was shot. Such a friggin' cutie.

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.

Love the expression, love the adorable pic.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Hash Brown Quiche: [link]

I use more eggs and less cream.

I use that recipe, and I don't even bother with the butter, I use 4 eggs, and 2% milk instead of cream (since it's what's always in the fridge), and instead of the ham & whatever, I use spinach.

Okay, so I basically *don't* use that recipe, except for baking the hash brown crust. Without the butter.

Um. Ignore me.

e_o, here is the profile:

Omnis, I apologize if this comes off wrong, but in looking at your profile, it says you're looking for "Bi girls only." And I fully believe that everyone should seek the type of person they're interested in. But that specification seems like it might rule out a large portion of women reading your profile. Which does sort of turn it into a numbers game, but the ratio of bisexual to hetero women on any given dating site is going to be darn low, I would think.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I had the same thought, Teppy. Also, your introductory paragraph might be less apologetic. You really are a kind, successful and funny guy and that should be upfront.

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

e-o, I thought that when we met at Pambiche this summer, you still lived up the block from there. That's why I was confused! Or maybe this summer has just gone by so fast that your definition of "not recently" and mine are different. I guess it's actually been a little while since I've been there. Time flies when you eat the same quiche every day for lunch.
