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 is also good for you to document the conditions in which you're living in case you need to break your lease.

Nora, she is behind on rent. I think she may have lost her job.

Vortex, that as well. We're hoping he'll let us out a little early if we find a house before our lease is up.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Andi is out at training for work. I hate to think of her driving in that.

I was very glad to have a nice scarf to drape over my head and around my mouth and nose. The cold is not my favorite part of this time of year. (I allow myself some whining, but hopefully not too much.) The nice new tires on the front wheels and nice somewhat less used than the old ones on the back wheels do make me feel safer and more confident.

As for the training - it was a CPR/1st Aid re-certification. Resusci-Annie's head fell off when I picked her up for my turn to demonstrate skills. Luckily decapitating the dummy doesn't mean automatic failure. It does, however, mean much merriment. "Dammit Jim, I'm a caregiver, not a Mythbuster."

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Hee. Glad you're home safe.

Lookit this necklace, y'all. I love it but I don't like how each bead is on a separate wire. Would that just be impossible to restring?

Somebody tell me that I need to go get dressed and get to campus so that I can fill out grades on 97 scantrons.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Depends why you have to restring it. If it breaks, for instance, you'll never have to worry about losing more than just that section of the beads, since they're all independent.

yesssss

These stories make me reconsider becoming a landlord again. You'd think I'd be shy of it anyway, seeing how bad my last experience with it was.

This is true, of course. It's a long necklace at 40 inches and with the wires I'm not sure it'll do well doubling it around my neck. Also I'm leery of my hair getting caught in the wires. But I like it. I'm still thinking about it many days after I put it in my Watch list. I dunno.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Zenkitty, it would be a pain to redo - you'd have to snip all the individual wires to free the beads. Then, when restringing, you might have to put small spacer beads between the ones to retain the look. If you didn't, it would probably end up being a good deal shorter.
