Oh people in pain, I am with you. I woke up with my mid-back spasming and frozen and owey. Also, it is cold and rainy.
Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

[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.

Much~ma to people in pain.
God help me, but I really do enjoy my job. I think what makes the different is working with uber intelligent people who trust me.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I got to see amych fence!!!!! More importantly, I got to see her fence really well! (Also, she fenced Jane Eyre. No, seriously. Jane Eyre is also a world champion. Seriously. [I'm trying to come up with a "Mr. Rochester" joke and failing.]) Also, I have pictures, but no time to put them up right now.
Hopefully, we will hook up later for Graeter's. In the interim, The Boy and I are going out to his parents' house to visit and have dinner.
t edit Actually, in the time it took me to type all that, it turns out I do have time to fiddle with pictures, because The Boy is going over to help out a buddy who's going through a bad breakup. So -- pictures soon!

Huh.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Holy shit, ya'll. You can spend over $400 at Sam's Club without half trying. Not that I know for sure or anything ...
But I'll not need lots of things for a long time. Sam's Club and Costco are awesome for controlled hoarding, like that which I am doing.
Joe and I cleaned the eff out of the garage, too. He's taking back all the Girl Scout bottles for me this week so we have room for people in there for the Halloween party this Saturday.
Speaking of, I need to go out today and find an ankle length red dress, red gloves, red boots, and I have to figure out how to make a coif/wimple thingie with wings. Our theme this year is Science Fiction.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Un-spasm-y back~ma, Pix.
Aside from having to drive my possibly damp car later, I love these kinds of days.
Note that out here we never get the kind of cold rainy days where you have to scrape ice off your car to find the door lock.

I am such a child. I want my roomie to get up and enjoy this rainy day with me. At the moment D is literally my roommate because my bed is the futon on the floor but I did just go in there and start jumping on my bed, hoping to wake him.

Art Crawl!!!
I did not know that Girl Scouts came in bottles.
Butter bells, girl scout bottles- I am learning all sorts of things today.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
My Ikea furniture is looking lovely in my study. I may downgrade them to 'not currently entirely evil incarnate'.
Pix, wishing you a less spasmy back.
Thanks for the anti-pain wishes! I'm stressed out about my ability to sustain a PhD study schedule, as (unsurprisingly) my pain levels are going up since I started having an office to go to and deadlines to meet again. I'm going to have a chat with my supervisor next week that will involve making him understand that this really will affect things like my target completion date. I think it's just about standing firm and producing proposed schedules for everything.
