Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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.

Thrive to spite them

Well everyone at the knitting club liked it.

I think next time I'm going to just go down to Burlington and try there.

Thanks about the scarf. I'm hoping to get matching fingerless gloves done before I go to Maine.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Made dinner, ate it, did Almost All The Dishes, booked a side job for Friday, cleaned the kitchen and bathroom sinks, cleaned the top of the stove, and FINALLY folded the last of my clean laundry from two weeks ago. I also organized my bathroom shelves a bit because I couldn't find the lotion I wanted (still can't).

Man, my expectations are so low with guys. D texted me today saying he hoped I was having a good day and that he was looking forward to seeing me tomorrow. Just that made me squee out loud, amusing my coworker to no end.

I finally caught up with my former coworkers, we had dinner last night. Oh, man. We shared a pitcher of margaritas three ways and just dished and debriefed and laughed. I just feel so validated about all the crazy shit from that job, and it is really good to connect with them outside of that context. Yayes.

My god, I killed Bitches by being in a good mood. I'M SO SORRY.

Aww, I'm glad things are going well with D. You deserve someone that treats you right.

I completely forgot that tonight was a meeting night for TCG. I should have made plans.

Yes. Never do THAT again.

And I'm so kidding.

Heh, smonster, sorry, I..uh...slept in today. Oops. Gonna have to kick some ass the rest of the day.

But that's awesome. Yay good mood and reasons thereof.

Sympathies to Cass, Frank, and Scrappy. And additional ~ma to any I've unintentionally forgotten to mention.

I need to call my realtor and tell her the house hunt is off, but in the (new) words of my toddler, "I don't want to!" Urgh.

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

We were just quiet. For a long, long time.

I don't want to call an insurer and tell them to cancel the policy next week. It'll save me money even and I am lacking motivation. Maybe admitting that will get me to call them and then to go to Cal DMV and start getting my license and car registtered here.

I'm glad I haven't put eyeliner on yet because I just spilled two things on my clothes. It bodes poorly. No, three things. I am like a toddler here. I am throwing myself in the shower and at least getting the book to study for the DMV. I know the laws are slightly different and that failing my driving test is shameful. So get the book and read it first. I can maybe do the test tomorrow.

Glam, have you decided not to move?

sj, after we lost "the house," we really looked at our finances and what it would take to get into a home and think we would be extremely pressed financially. We are bummed but we agree that it isn't worth it to not be able to afford anything beyond our basic needs. Our original plan was to wait until we were both working again (DW is a stay-at-home mom), but with the rates low and the housing prices looking decent, we jumped in. I feel really bad about wasting my realtor's time, hence the not wanting to tell her. I also feel guilty about staying in a 2 bedroom condo with no yard with my almost-3-year old and adding another kid, you know? Sucks. Still, our original plan was to stay put so nothing has really changed.

Now we will get a storage space and clear the clutter, turn the office into kid room, and move office into our (huge) master. It's doable.
