Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

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

I know! I was shocked. Technically the NDA is still in place, but the no compete was the larger issue. I'm only ever the second person they've done it for. I hope this is a portent of better things to come.

Now tagless for your comfort.

That's great news, Maria! I hope it happens!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ooh, I hope the waiving works.

Meara, if a woman came upp to you during Pride and said "I have a policy of letting people know If i think they're beautiful during Pride.You're beautiful" followed by long eye contact. Would they have a chance?

Maria, that's fab. I hope it helps you out.

I think I'll pick up some D cells if I can get my swim in tomorrow. Now wishing I'd already sprung for a new laptop battery (will bring work computer home) but if the power goes out, I lose dsl thus internet. Maybe I'll ask for a ups for xmas. (My dad bought one when they went all cable, including phone.)

Fuck, I'll be doing my regular shopping amidst the panic shopping Saturday afternoon.

Um, I would be flattered, if nothing else. And heck yeah, if she were cute I'd talk to her! ...that sounds kinda like something I'd do. :) (ETA: I mean, I am someone who has had a stranger say "You're cute!" and me respond "So are you!" and get asked "Wanna make out?" and done it...)

Technically the NDA is still in place, but the no compete was the larger issue. I'm only ever the second person they've done it for. I hope this is a portent of better things to come.

Oh wow, Maria! Fingers crossed for you!

Because books.

Maria, that's great news! I hope it works out.

"uninterrupted power supply?"

What Cash said. Battery backup. In industrial (work) situations, provides a stopgap until the generators kick in. At home? Buys you time.

So a black bear wandered through my aunt and uncle's (uncle of the motorcycle fame) property. This was taken by the neighbors, yard and cars are my relatives'. Sue mentioned is my aunt. [link]

I am getting tips from the lesbian ex of my childhood male friend. Not sure if that trick would work across gender. Doesn't mean I shouldn't try, though.

I want to take Rich, dress in something scandalous, and try and pick up an entire bar. Where would be a good bar for that?

Amy, a UPS is an uninterruptible power source. Basically it;s a big battery you plug yout computers in so they don't come slamming down when power is lost.
