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.

I just got an interview at Michaels! It's for seasonal work but hey a job is a good thing and it's an interview.

Have a great time, sj! I'll have to grill you when you get back since I'm prepping for my trip to Great Britain next summer.

And good luck on the Michaels interview, askye! I worked there for a few years back in the early '90s, and it was a good place to work. Ended up learning how to tie bows with ribbon, which my mom puts to good use every Christmas that I'm with her. The cross-stitch piece I'm working on right now was one I bought at that time.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Thanks Kathy! I just realized that Michaels is kinda far, I was thinking it was closer when I applied, but it still would be worth the job.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I am SO sorry, but I read that last word as a verb, and thought, yeah, that IS productive!

Have fun, sj!!

The plumber came!! I'm not crazy!!! The telltale pipe is real. The orange tree in front of the house grew through the pipe. No WONDER I have low water pressure - here I was thinking it was a coastal thing. Apparently I can appeal to the water board for a partial credit, since it didn't go down the sewer. Hallele-effin-lujah.

In less awesome news, my neighbors left tons of junk behind, and some guy is cleaning out the house and it's all on the sidewalk. Mattresses, tables, clothes, a toilet... and the next trash day is Monday. Nasty.

Okay, gotta finish making quesadillas, walk the dog, and head out to the pitch competition.
