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.

I have baked all the cookies and now I've cleaned all the things. My snow vacation is at an end. Back to the grind again, tomorrow.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I have had to block more people on Facebook since the Connecticut shooting than I had to during the election. Just when you think people couldn't get any crazier.

I wish I could block Tim from saying "If guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns." I'm seriously going to cockpunch him if he says it one more time.

(I realize the irony of threatening violence while complaining about pro-gun rhetoric.)

Our wings are not tired

The afternoon show went decently. We have another performance in about 40 minutes.

In other work news I just got called about an RFP for a project in China that I would really like to get. Of course the bids are due on January 7th so there goes at least part of my holiday time. Still it's a project I'd really like to work on, and I'd love to work in China.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh my gosh, China! That's exciting. Good luck with your RFP!

I am doing dishes, putting things away, and gathering things to be packed. Ten minutes at a time, baby. The timer is my friend. Hoping to be in bed by 11 pm, but that's probably overly optimistic.

Good luck, smonster!

I had a really good work lunch (our staff Christmas lunch) and now I'm just sort of blehhhhh. I didn't get a call I was hoping to get (beer-career related) and although I know it's because of the upcoming holidays, I am preemptively bummed out.

Nora, I see you! ::kermit waves::

I need to update the kitty instructions.

Dishes done, stovetop cleaned, packing list started, meds organized. Packing toiletries and cleaning the bathroom (perfunctorily) are next, I think.

Well, crap. Nora made me look crazy. I'll wave anyway.

China! So cool, ND!

smonster, I'm so looking forward to your visit! Is Frankie staying with me too? Frankie, Frankie, Frankie!

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

China? Make sure to spec some LCS so you have a top notch reason to hire me to join you! Whaaa? It's worth a try.

ION- I didn't stop with just one sheet of labels. I finished the labels for show #2. Now tomorrow, I need to do show #1, which is a lot smaller, but not as detailed paperwork.
