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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

My cousin's step-daughter had a baby boy this morning. It's a baby-tastic day!

Ann, that's a ferret.

Welcome to the world, babies! I hope we can make it a better place before you're old enough to be aware of it.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

OMG! I'm Greek and never realized it.

OPA!

My mom claims I'm Irish but I can't stand scalloped potatoes.

Huh. Maybe I'm also Irish.

YAY LOTS OF BABIES! My officemate's daughter is in L&D at a hospital across town right now, at 5cm and counting.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Yay babies!!

Strix, I am also glad to see you back around. Hang in there! The solstice is coming!!

I canceled my insurance claim b/c it was wear and tear and am waiting for an estimate. The slave cylinder is definitely leaking, and the master might need replacing, too. He says I'll have it back by Thursday night! Here's hoping.

Thrive to spite them

smonster in terms of car repairs that doesn't seem too bad.

I have to wrap presents and take them to the post office, and I don't want to. Thinking of going to the post office is making me antsy and uncomfortable.

Strix, I'm glad to see you coming out of the dark.

smonster, that's a relief.

Yesterday, going holiday shopping with my Dad, I tried an experiment. I dressed like I always do, but didn't wear a top hat. Surprise, surprise, there were no "Oh, steampunk!" comments directed at me. Hmmm. Dear steampunk, the neo-Victorian goths did not relinquish custody of top hats to you.

Shopping with Dad was fun. It felt really good to help him pick out presents for his lady friend. She makes him really, really happy, and that's all that I want.

I'm glad the car stuff was in the low three figures, smonster.
