No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

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.

Sleep well, Nora. I'm glad travel is going fairly well, considering.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Babble away as needed, Nora. Wish there was something else I could do.

Uhhh, so I took a wee spending plan vacation. I'm watching the Heels play at a bar with other alums. I'm allowing myself bar food and two beers.

It's OK, smonster. It's the Carrier Classic! A brand new tradition.

I myself have had quite a few beers, but I'm at The Compound. A. and I were just discussing how we should watch more games at bars this season. Get out among the people.

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

I am broke, but have most of a bottle of cherry vodka in the freezer, and am contemplating calling up a couple of friends tomorrow night to see if they want to hang and drink. I haven't had a cocktail-and-gab night in a while...

I can spring for a liter of Sprite and a lime...

Maybe we could have a virtual cocktail-and-gab night.

eta: I said hi to both A. and W. and they say hi back!

Thrive to spite them

erin, I know this is going to run counter to normal advice, but you may want to cut out the cranberry supplements.

If you can find it get, D-Mannose (which is just the sugar in cranberry that attracts e coli) and take that instead. Cranberry can be very irritating to the bladder, especially if it's inflamed and can be more painful than helpful.

Can I have some ~ma today? We're meeting with the mortgage specialist at our bank today. I hate hate hate this kind of thing, so I'm nervous.
