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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

One of the happiest couples I know does that plenty.

TCG probably would be fine with it, but we don't have the means at the moment, so it's a moot point.

I'll go on daytrips by myself. I think I would huddle up in a ball and pout if I tried sleeping by myself away from Hubby.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Since we've moved I've gone on many more trips without Tom than we used to do. He has like zero vacation time and I have family obligations. I miss him like crazy when I'm visiting family (I really miss the support he gives me as well as just him, in general) but when I was in San Francisco a couple months ago, it was better. Mostly because I was having super fun times. Though I did wish a lot he was there with me, because I know he'd have had super fun times as well.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Goddamn. I lost D's bank card and it's been used, so he has to cancel it and get a new one. I used it to get poboys at a bar this afternoon while he waited in the car; to be honest, I don't remember the lady giving me the card back, but it's entirely possible that she did and I just left it on the counter like an ass.

He doesn't seem to be mad or even fazed, but this is just the latest in a series of space case moves I've made and I'm super frustrated with myself. Mindfulness, everything comes back to being more mindful.

{{Smonster}}} You've had a lot to deal with lately; don't be so hard on yourself. We have all done stupid things like that.

Ahhh, thanks, sj. I need to work on my zen, since my life is not likely to get less stressful any time soon. I guess it's time to revive my meditation practice.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Lisah, those are hot shoes. I approve.

smonster, everyone pulls an occasional boner. Don't let it faze you too much.

Ugh. Well, the time of the month explains why I had dreams about my back hurting all night long. Ow. How long do these painkillers take to kick in?

Also: anyone have awesome present ideas for a guy who is old, blind in one eye, deaf in one ear, and doesn't like to leave his recliner much? Aka, my dad?

Something he can put into his mouth, like Scotch?
