I told my therapist today that I often want to pick up [person], wrap him in a blanket, and feed him soup. She's fairly young and hip (not hipster, though). Is that a weird expression or something just we say? Because she looked at me sort of funny.

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 don't think I've heard it elsewhere, but I think I would understand what someone was trying to convey even if I'd never heard it before.

I have made a list of all the addresses for postcards people e-mailed me. If you didn't get an e-mail response from me, you are not on the postcard list, so resend.
I'm playing with the shiny phone I ended up renting for the trip. I can tell I'm never going to want to give it back.

move out and draw fire
I'm trying to decide how I feel about Steve Jobs passing away. Mostly I'm trying to decide if I should talk about it here, in Press, or in Tech.

His death is big news here in the tech support department, geeks scurrying from cubicle to cubicle spreading the word. I appreciate that Jobs was a genius and very, very clever, but I guess I'm not nerdy enough to be that dismayed.

I was never an Apple fan, but Steve Jobs is one of the people who made the modern world, and the world is poorer for his dying so young.
