You're not gonna jokey-rhyme your way out of this one.

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.

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

Massive amounts of ~ma for amyth and family.

bt, I'm so sorry about your MIL's arm. May it heal fast and may they make their visit soon.

JZ, sorry about the crap with the car. Ugh, ordinary people just trying to manage without causing anybody else harm or inconvenience? Trod on, unmercifully. I wish there was an antidote.

One for you, too, Seska.

I know rice flour makes a good pancake.

I can testify to the veracity of this statement. And the numminess.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

AMYTH, ~MA, INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH.

What smonster said.

Much peace and strength to you and yours.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

So much ~ma to your brother and the team caring for him, amyth.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

In much less serious news, I have a small puncture wound in my hand from a drywall nail. I believe I had a tetanus shot this spring, I'll double check tomorrow. It's already closed, I'm trying to decide whether to reopen it to try and clean it. Thoughts, advice?

not your mom's socks.

So much ~ma Amyth. BT I hope your MIL heals quickly. Msbelle, ugh, and also wishing you smoother days soonest. JZ sorry you are dealing with this stuff.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

amyth, so so much ~ma to your brother and you and your whole family.

smonster, if it doesn't hurt and it isn't inflamed, I'd leave it alone.

JZ sorry you are dealing with this stuff.

We're definitely protesting. Paying first, but then protesting. I don't know how much good it'll do since we don't have photographic proof that the car was legally parked when Hec put it there, but we don't tend to photograph the car every time we park it because we sort of just assume that they're not going to change the rules on us at midday.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

amyth, so much ~ma for your brother and your whole family.

Seska, I'm so sorry you are having to deal with that kind of bullshit. Good luck getting it all straightened out.

JZ, sorry about the car trouble.

I dropped the announcements off at the printers today, so that is one minor crisis averted.

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

Much much ~ma for your brother, you and your family, Amyth.

meara, what Sparky said.

Smonster, you can cup some hydrogen peroxide on it. If it's not entirely closed, the hp will find its way in there to clean out. Otherwise, I guess leave it alone. I hope your tetanus ends up being up-to-date.

Tired tired tahrd. And not through yet. This am my dad helped me transfer soil from one bed (where it was overpiled) to the other. Then split the manure bags up to spread equally in the beds. Once we got an equal-ish amount in both, I could see how much more soil I needed. Wasn't going back to the construction site. The soil needs more organic matter anyway. Cooled my impatient heels for a couple of hours because my mom had had a late night and hadn't woken up yet. Dad and I needed her permission to use her car to haul that stuff in. Finally at a bit past 2pm, we got the go ahead but were told to rush.

Raced over to Home Despot, picked up 12 bags of steer manure. My dad put that in and it helped but I still needed something like 4" of soil height. Going to get more soon. And somehow figure out a way to get it on there myself, even if I have to do it teaspoon by teaspoon. My dad is exhausted from the day and isn't up to any more. I'm impatient because I've been living here since July with no gardening opportunities and was living in my old house in Berkeley with no ability to garden for a whole year before that due to having the house on the market and the landscaping having to adhere to a realtor scheme. My family situation has been so stressful that I need to garden very badly as a way to decompress. So I'm driven.
