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.

The status is NOT quo.

Go you, smonster! I've graded 22 of 36 essays. I can't go to bed until I finish the final 14, so I'm trying to pick up the pace. If I didn't have to give those darn kids feedback...

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

Ugh Pix, I totally feel you on that one.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Woot on productivity! I was a bit as well. Scrubbed toilet and tub. Both of which need replacing, due to previous owner not cleaning enough/water stains/I duuno what. But, they are cleaner, and long over due. Went grovery shopping. Had mom over, cooked her some stuffed shells for dinner. We watched some football, then went over all the ballot issues. Local NPR station has a good website that helps with research. So used the new Xbox internet browser, so we could both look at the research together. With her help, took the dozen or so boxes down to recylcing. And with the increased floor space in the living room, have finally put the coffee table in place. Woot. Still need to do dishes and laundry. But thankfully, not dire yet, so will procrastinate those tasks. Now, gotta relax and prepare for the busy week.

As for flashlights. I found my box of them. Yes, I have a box of them. D cell. C-cells. Most are AA flashlights. The joys of working in theater. I almost always ahve a flashlight on me, or close at hand. Wish I could stuff them into the web to y'all who need them. Stay safe my east coast friends.

Might explain why I kicked mom out. It's 10pm. She's been here since 1pm. I said I'm pooped and fading. She was shocked, me, the night owl, was tired before her. Eh. It happens.

Aaaaand, done. Bed to bed to bed to bed.

Sleep well, Omnis! You've earned it.

Good job, Pix!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I had such a great day today. We wrapped up the retreat, which went really well. Four different tribes. Seven different cooperating orgs.

Afterwards we sat and chatted with the organizers for a couple of hours. And then we took the older boys (who attend the boarding school that hosted the event, but weren't allowed back in the dorms yet) out for Mexican. It was a fun, goofy time. One of them ordered a hamburger and the waiter was teasing him about it. So when he brought it out, he stuck a little paper Mexican flag in it and said, "There. Now it's Mexican food." We don't often get that kind of relaxed downtime with the kids, so it was super fun.

Then we hooked up with our houseguest for the week. Our neighbor boy came over to chill and we did the guest's preproduction, worked on his guitar tone (a beautiful Martin) and laid down a couple trial scratch tracks. It should be a good project.
