I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

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.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Nerves regenerate at a rate of a mm/day or an inch/month. So, for short distances, they can often re-bridge the gap.

Really?! Huh.

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

Typo, double or triple bag your detritus and shove it in the freezer until garbage day. We recycle everything we can. I can't live with a countertop composter--we have no room for one anyway--and have no disposal, so we freeze garbage until pickup day. It works. Our freezer's seldom full. Double or triple bagged, there's no smell, either inside the freezer, or outside anywhere else.

Yay healage of smonster's (and bonny's) fingers. I still have the scar where the bagel knife slipped, detatching muscle and tendon from bone. I was home alone. I tried everything and was getting dizzy and contemplating calling 911 when the bleeding started to slow and H came home. "Bagel? Really?"

Yes, bagel. Things are lethal. I not only have the scar (I never got it stitched, just butterflied), there's a marked depression and gap behind it where the tissue never reattached or regrew. Bagels, man. Tricksy. They'll get you.

Serious bagel cuts are the #1 cause of ER visits on Sunday mornings. True fact.

My emergency room doc friends concur that bagels are second degree lethal weapons. They apparently cause more wounds than any other non-vehicular implement. Or, so I'm told.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm sure I've told my bagel injury story here. It wasn't the knife. It was the actual bagel. It was toasted, and I bit into it, and some crumbs went flying, and one of them got lodged in my eye. I had to make an emergency trip to the eye doctor to get it out.

It was the actual bagel.

Thrive to spite them

Typo I second the freezer suggestion.

I have to keep anything dairy or meat related (and the packaging) in the freezer until trash night otherwise my cats will get into it. And it makes Dean sick. Plus Penny has chewed through double bagged garbage before to get to something she wanted.

I'll try it. And all rats are vampire rats. A buffista posted the link. Rats are attracted to human blood and prefer it to all other foods. Tested in labs. One reason why they bite sleeping people sometimes.

Oh great. Thanks for that. No sleep for me tonight.
