Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

[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.

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

I just left an (unacademic, for SF/F fans) lecture while flipping the bird to the lecturer.

It was justified. He was distorting history, unneeded, for the sake of his argument. He wouldn't admit he's wrong. We argued. He shushed me and continued talking bullshit.

And also, yes, hi. You can pretty much expect me posting more regularly starting next week. Right now, people are wrong, life is mostly good but oh-so-amazingly-busy, and I missed this place.

(I also have no idea why I kept sitting in this place 15 minutes after he started babbling unnecessary bullshit. It was really a nice and funny piece about the differences between epic fiction and gritty fiction until he had to explain why he thinks gritty fiction is more popular today. Without facts. Just his very general ideas about life and how they are.)

So. How y'all doing?

Shir! It's great to see you. The Affordable Health Care act was ruled Constitutional. We're happy.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Yipes Vortex, so glad you are OK. How scary!

I also want to say congrats to o_a on impending home ownership. May it treat you well!

And Aimee, that Greek quinoa sounds delicious. I will probably crib that recipe.

We had a rough morning. But now the sitter is here so I will probably skedaddle for a couple hours. And then stretch class tonight and maybe go to the pool with the kids after dinner.

Ooh! Yes, it even reached our news. Congrats!

Wish you a better day from here on, Burrell.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I am sorry about the bad, Strix.

I think I'm facing (or trying not to face) that my dad isn't doing well. I'm saying it out loud when I need to run for an hour or two so I can't just delete it.

. The Affordable Health Care act was ruled Constitutional. We're happy.

Very happy about this. It's like we want to be a civilized country or something.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Strix, I'm so sorry you're having a rough time. Miss you, hon. Wish I could come visit.

SHIR!! OMG HI.

I'm sorry, Cass. Strength to you and yours.

Cass, I'm so sorry. I wish it weren't so.

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

Cass, I'm so sorry.

can only say that I hope having us here to say the kinds of things you can't say out loud is as much a refuge for you as it was for me.
