Bunch of wanna blessed-bes. Nowadays every girl with a henna tattoo and a spice rack thinks she's a sister to the dark ones.

[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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

We had a pretty good time at the Alibi Room, which is hidden down an alley across from the Wall of Gum.

Now I'm re-reading my F2F posts and being reminded that Plei gave me her extra copy of Batman: Year One ! Thanks again!

Oh, you should go Piroshky Piroshky and get a piroshky. We also went to Beecher's Handmade Cheese, but I was not too impressed with my crab and cheese sandwich, so maybe get the mac and cheese instead.

The Alibi Room is great!

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Golden Age Collectables in the basement of Pike Place Market, for comics.

NO. Golden Age, while large and interesting to wander around, has a history of price gouging. Other than that, Pike Place Market is a fantastic place to take visiting peoples.

The Dreaming in the University District and Comics Dungeon in Wallingford are both good stores.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I came here depressed and on the verge of tears ... and catching up on two days of Buffista postings has cheered me up no end. I may even be able to sleep tonight (have NOT been sleeping well).

Bless you all for being here.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Sleep well, Toddson.

Toddson,

we had a foray into toilet paper in natter. If that doesn't cheer you up, nothing will.

Family time can be summed up in two words for Christmas Eve this year.

Pet. Psychic.

Good luck, Toddson!! From what you said in Good Riddance, there are a number of other Buffistas with diabetes, who I'm sure can commiserate and/or help.

Anyone have advice for dealing with my mom? I feel bad because she just wants to spend lots of time together, but I also want to hang with my sister and do stuff with her (without mom). And mom tends to think "ok, everyone drive up to our house and sit around and eventually eat dinner and then sit around and maybe watch some Tv none of us are super into!" is going to get us revved up to hang? Um, no. And my brother, who lives on another CONTINENT is acting like my sister and I are crazy and he's besties with the folks. Yeah right.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Last night, in bed, I was copying sections from books to the laptop manually, as future references for my seminars.

And then there were some pages in the book that I couldn't remember I was ever reading. But they were marked! They had a pencil mark next to them, and the page had an improvised bookmark (a torn piece of paper I reused). So I thought, hey, I'm probably losing it, and kept reading to refresh my memory.
Then it hit me. The pencil marks were a bit heavier than my own. I looked closely: nope, I never marked sections in the book like this. I checked the torn piece of paper that's been used as a bookmark: the tiny bit of sentence that's been left there wasn't mine.

Someone was using exactly the same marking technique as me! It took me about 12 minutes to understand that. I thought I was losing it, at a point, as I tried very hard to remember why I supposedly marked those sections to begin with. Unfortunately, that someone didn't take out the bookmarks s/he was using, or erased the pencil writing.

You have no idea how confusing that was.

Lame! I only said that since we went there.

The Dreaming in the University District and Comics Dungeon in Wallingford are both good stores.

Ooh.
