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.
I seriously just wondered why you were focusing such ill on a band that sang "Lost Cause." Then I translated correctly and agree with you completely.
This.
ION, people who talk in libraries (in the "keep it quiet" floors, at least), are on the list. Seriously. WTF. Dudes.

Same here!
smonster, my completely unscientific diagnosis is that its one bite and you are having an allergic reaction to it
Tons and tons and TONS of health~ma to EVERYONE!
And in petty news, I'd really appreciate it if people would stop honking from their cars in order to call for someone in the street/house. Especially at 23:14.
That's what cell phones are for. And at that hour? Woa. I think you should brush off those M-16 skills.
I couldn't do it with an alarm set to 7:20 or 7:45. Could do it with an alarm set (without snooze!) to 6:30, even though I fell asleep sometime after 1:00am. Bodies and sleep circulations are a weird thing.
My sleep patterns are chaotic. The snooze button is my friend, on multiple machines.
ION - Today was a good day of teaching. Er. Um. Well, as a Staff member I can only instruct. So, for the two students in my workshop, it was a good day of learning. Wow. What a cool feeling to see the fog lift from the eyes of Padawan!
And now, I'm off to bed, about two hours earlier than I usually do. Must get used to mornings. Why did I take this job?? (:: looks back a paragraph ::) Oh yeah, that.
smonster, try hot compresses on the eyelid (as hot as you can stand), then apply a tiny (TINY!) bit of .5% cortisone creme to the area with a clean, slightly damp, q-tip.
(This is what I had to do years ago when a particular company changed the formula of their liquid liner with no warning.)
Jilli, were you rendered unable to wear eyeliner for some period of time?
(the thought makes me sad)
The snooze button is my friend
Snooze button is a friend and a foe, in my case. The problem is that I never know when it's starting to ring which one it'll be today, and I'm too much into sleep to try and find out. But in occasion, I can linger up to an hour and a half of snoozing (if I don't have anything in particular to do that day). Sometimes, extra 10 minutes of sleep are vital. At other times, I just want to escape everything and everyone for that day. And sometimes I can be all out and about the first time the alarm rings. But trusting my mostly-sleeping body to make that conscious decision, well... A friend and a foe, as I said. A friend and a foe.
Feel better, smonster!
Omnis, here's a post OKCupid administration did on their observations about pics in profiles:

In other news, I signed up for Alikewise [link] , a personals site Neil Gaiman mentioned that uses what books people read as a criterion for matching.
ETA: Damn, I had this queued up to post and got distracted. Now Omnis is asleep.
... I'm not that entirely sure I'd like to date people who read the same shit I read. Plus, it takes the fun out of converting them into sci-fi. However, I remember reading about a site which matches academics according to the ideas/theories they believe in. That's something I could go on with, if only I believed in the idea of dating.
Me, metareconsidering-everything since 1985.
DCJ, it's good to hear they caught the sleep problems. CPAPs are meant to be fantastic and make a huge difference.
Health~ma for everyone who needs it. 2010 is not being kind to the health of Bitches. Hmph.
Teppy, that confusion is why the American phrase 'from... through' is helpful (although I suppose not useful in your particular sentence). I always wish we have that, when people say "from the 1st to the 3rd of September" and I'm almost sure they mean including the 3rd, but 'through' would make that clearer. Oh and your unicorn is both awesome and disturbing. Which may be the point.

So true. I also have a 'Lumie' alarm clock that wakes me up with light. That helps.

The Girl found me on OutEverywhere solely because I had Buffy as a 'like' in my profile. Joss Whedon: responsible for all the best lesbian pairings.

High-fives Seska. Also a few good het. pairings, says the woman who met her man in a Buffy chat room.
There was a time in my life when I thought I could only be happy with a man who loved Tolkien as much as I do. And after a decade of loneliness lowered my standard to "comprehends after a brief explanation why I could not watch the LOTR movies in the theater". At least we are agreed on Whedon and Gaiman.
