I just had a mug of hot cocoa. I am now sitting with a purring cat wedged between me and the desk. He is not attempting to get up on the keyboard. I am also buff-diving. Is there a better way to spend the half hour or so before getting ready for work?
Mal: How drunk was I last night? Jayne: Well I dunno. I passed out.

[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Yay, Vortex! Change is good.
Up an extremely steep, cobble-stoned hill in the pouring rain and heavy winds with slippery leaves everywhere. Bronte Parsonage was worth it, but it was quite the treacherous journey.
Sounds very Bronteish. Brontish? Brontesque?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Congrats, Vortex!! That sounds exciting!!
~ma to Erin for her job.

I say there are not many better ways, nope.

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
Congratulations, Vortex! I am going to miss you desperately.
I'm thinking mid-November.
No, it's too soon. It's not enough time.

Congrats, Vortex!

Ever have one of those days when you get all ready to go to work, you drive there... you walk in the door, they take a look at you and say, "What the hell are you doing here?"
Yeah. I just had one. Without the swearing.
Ages ago, I had requested today off, just for the heck of it (and to burn off floating holidays). In all the scramble with Daniel being sick, etc. I forgot all about it.

Our wings are not tired.
I am so pleased to hear about Vortex's new job (congratulations!!!) AND an impending Buffista baby (Congrats FAQFamily!).
