Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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.

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!

::snort::

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.

You are a renter; this sounds like something your landlord should take care of since he is the property owner.

Yeah, but he won't. Whatever they don't cover, I might take out of the rent and take the risk, or I may be leaving my lease a month early (and letting him keep the deposit). Don't know.

Ah, more of the slumlord shenanigans, eh? Yeah, you really need to get out of there. Very good thing you have a short lease.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I have a migraine. There is a homecoming parade marching by my house. This is not good.

I seriously feel like my head is about to explode from this noise. And there's no way to get away from it -- the parade is blocking the road, so I can't drive anywhere. The library is within walking distance, but it's also on the parade route, and it's got fluorescent lights, which will also bother me.

I suppose having one of the professors flinging water balloons at the homecoming parade would be a bad thing.
