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.

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

Happy dance for amyth and family! And how cool is that you both call at the same time. Talk about same wavelength.

Friday is now Pieday
I had pie tonight too! Shepherds Pie. Not quite the same. I think your version is better. Although mine was yummy, thank you Fresh & Easy!

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

There's a local tiny cafe in the town where I've recently moved. Their steak pie is fantastically English - so bad it's great. (This may be a slightly odd cultural thing.)

Oh, and I'm up at 5am for a 'Feminism in London' conference (moving to the Midlands means painful early mornings - bleugh) where I'm representing the little feminist org I volunteer with. Watch out for our tweets hashtagged #fil10 if you're interested - I'll be resident tweeter for the day.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Have fun, Seska!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Amyth, I'm so glad for your brother and your family!

Good luck, Seska! And amyth - it's so wonderful to read your news this morning. I'm so happy for you!

ION: I still have one or two technical problems to solve, and a new header to find/better design, and a better tagline to find, and a press release to make up - but other than that, Hollaback Israel is ready to go. And I just spent Way Too Much Hours of looking at the screen yesterday.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Oh hey, one thing I do still get and have no explanation for are short bursts of stabby pain usually near one of my temples, but could be anywhere. Only lasts for a couple of seconds and isn't consistent, but it is horrible. Anybody know what that is?

I get more typical migraines about once or twice a year, but I also get what are called atypical migraines every so often. First happened in college, where I (seriously) thought I had a brain tumor in my nose -- I get this pain that feels like someone is stabbing a nail through the bridge of my nose. Literally. NAILPOUND.

Makes me stop and gasp. And then it happens again and again and again. Generally it goes away after an hour, but not always. When I got it diagnosed, it had been happening every 30 seconds for half a day, and I really thought I was dying. I got a shot of something at the clinic, and a Rx for Midrin (this was about 92).

If I get a migraine, is is almost always stress-related, and I take a couple of Ambien and just cover my face with a pillow and pass out, and it's generally gone the next day.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I promised that I'll post here once I'll get there. This is what Hollaback Israel is going to look like: [link]

I just need to solve a technical issue or two, but I'm almost there. And actually, shivering with excitement.

(I know. All in Hebrew. Sorry!)
