Anya ,'Get It Done'
[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.
Lots of ~ma, Shir. Here's hoping it's nothing serious and she better and home soon.
Went to brunch, back at old place. Kitchen floor mopped, now going to scrub the tub. Then the last stuff will be ready to load, I think, and I'll just need to clean the fridge and sweep the front room. Is that a light, yon?
I'm more worried than I should be
I'm going to with the opinion that once you get past mild indigestion or a paper cut (and even then...) there's not much to the idea of "should" when it comes to worrying about loved ones. As long as you don't get in the way of their recovery.
Which reminds me...I haven't spoken to my mother in a couple days! Time to call home. Can't wait to find out how long it takes her to get tired of this...
Bathroom totally clean, food moved to new place along with other stuff. Now to clean the fridge and see how many loads I have left. Trying to enlist last-minute help, we'll see if that works. My neighbors were going to help but their plans changed. Also, kind of pissed at ex-roomie. She did NOTHING to clean except sweep her floor. I had all her stuff staged on one section of counter and she didn't even wipe it down after packing. Grr...
Thank, ita.
As selfish as it might sound, I prefer a half-deaf mom at home than a not-sure-need-more-testing mom at the hospital.
smonster that sucks. I'm glad she's your ex roomie.
Seconded.
ita !, do you have any links to places where people can buy weapons on line? (Story idea, people! Sorry -- no IRL bloody rampage planned.)
Like a variety of weapons, some with a high grade of iron or steel? Real weapons, not for show.
Also, any links to awesome krav explanation videos or sites? I'm doing research. Just getting ideas for future scenes in my research files.
What sort of weapons? Bladed? Swords? Knives?
Couldn't tell you about krav explanations. We were always parsimonious with what we gave up for free, and I haven't looked around much recently--what I was aware of wasn't, you know, us.
There's Atlanta Cutlery [link] Erin. I was friends with the owner and the guy who started its related business, Museum Replicas [link] but they're both gone now. The company is run by the Indian company that initially made most of their knives, a company founded to supply kukris to the the Gurka.
Blades of all stripes, blunt weapons, asps. Brass knuckles. Crossbows. Anything.
I'm looking, but there just so much out there.
How does one find/make boots where blades come out?
With the krav -- even vids where I can just look at the fighting style and try to envision how a scene would look in my head. I'm not trying to self-teach; I'm just trying to develop a fight scene that would flow logically, and krav seems to be particularly effective and nasty.
