Liese is smart. But we knew that.
Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

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.

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

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Lies is smart. And, you know, emotionally mature ...

The status is NOT quo.
Oh Maria. I'm so sorry. Liese is indeed wise, and for what it's worth, you have another door open here in Pasadena for an escape (so long as you don't mind the dog and four cats that come with it).
And sj, I hope you get good news soon. You know I can empathize.

Thanks, Pix. I hope I am not poking at anyone's wounds when I post. If I am, please stay something, and I'll stop.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
As evidence that everybody does not always have to mourn, here is a short story based on tales my late father told me about his relationship with his mother. Subject to errors in my memory and name changes, this is a true story. I don't know if it will make you feel any better. It is quite grimly funny and your outlaws remind me of Dora.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Liese is wise, though I admit I was ready to grab a pool skimmer and nab that pooch Hank and Britt-style.
Also, NOLA welcomes you. Town that care forgot, yadda yadda.
Please, this is Bitches. We are here to support one another, and I'm here for you just like you were (and doubtless will be again) here for me.
Amen.

Compassionately intolerant
I'm applauding Maria's letting go. SO healthy, and I hope, liberating.
I've got to bitch about something I can't say on facebook...iffn you don't mind.
So. I worked from 6am to 9pm as one of two ballot clerks in my precinct today. (Thanks for the kind works msbelle, it was my honor!)
I personally instructed 2194 people. Working out how much was admin time and how much was actually hands-on, the math comes out to 3 people per minute that I helped to cast their votes.
My precinct captain was an ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE. She started making life hard for us at 4:30 YESTERDAY when we went to set up the polling place.
At one point, there was a very long line this morning. Truth to tell, no one waited for more than an hour. And that was mostly because the intake clerks were slow getting people to my table where there were 7 different ballots that had to be appropriately assigned and tracked.
The captain came over to my cohort and I at one point and started yelling at us about being too 'yappy'...literally stopped the line to tell us we were taking too long.
20 seconds per person.
Then, to cover her obnoxiousness, she made up the elaborate fiction about how a Washington Post reporter had come to her to say that voters were complaining about our 'yappiness.'
When I did not take her rubbish, escalated, making herself look pretty bad in front of a crowd of people. Later in the day, when the Board of Elections rep praised us, she must have said 'She had our backs' about 8 different times.
I am going to complain about her behavior but don't know quite how to say it. She's apparently been a captain for a long time...but the crew of 10 people helping her today did all her work!
Okay. End of rant. Sorry for bleating, but I'm bone tired and can't really talk about this to the neighbors, ya know?
