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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Why would the bank NOT allow you to make payments?

Because they want her house. Laura missed a payment three years ago. The bank used this as an excuse to move forward and say she defaulted. Though she's had the money to make all payments since, the bank is not interested and only wants to foreclose because she doesn't owe that much on the house so it would be an excellent investment. They are being predatory and evil.

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

bonny, tolls on the Turnpike aren't that bad, you'll probably pay a couple bucks. It's $5 to go over the Delaware Memorial Bridge though, the last I remember.

omnis, definitely get a fixed-rate mortgage, you never know what's going to happen with interest rates. They're really low right now, though, and home prices are (relatively) low, so if you're going to buy, this is a good time.

not your mom's socks.

There are some tolls on 95 that have gone up - Aberdeen and Perryville are both somewhere around $4. There's one in De before the bridge too, IIRC. There must be a toll/trip calculator on the interwebs - if not, it would be useful.

Compassionately intolerant

Is it just me or did someone think that bonny was going to get her dog using Myers-Briggs?

This made me snort out loud. I can totally see why you'd think that but...no. Though, I bet I could build an industry on a 'preference inventory' for dogs. Damn this having integrity. Damn it to hell!

We will be around, bonny. It would be great to try and meet and give K a chance for a lesson in how to meet and greet a dog.

Excellent. I'll give you a ring once we've landed and see what we can work out.

There must be a toll/trip calculator on the interwebs - if not, it would be useful.

So far, I'm getting that it will be between $25-30 each way. Plus, about $70 in gas. Lordy, I hope the pooch likes the job because taking him back would be an expensive endeavor!

Art Crawl!!!

Managed a half day at work. I had forgotten about the whole bloodloss=less energy thing .

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Nora, good! I was worried I'd left the door unlocked.

Treme so far is kind of boring and hot. Giving Frankie and self lots of water. they are trying to feed 400 of us in half an hour. Ha! I'm at the back of the line because of Frankie stopping every ten feet.

This is why I haven't tried out to be a zombie extra. The idea sounds fun, but shuffling around all day in mid summer might make me an actual zombie.

It's not just the blood loss, sumi, but also being in bed for several days. It's quite depressing how fast your muscles deteriorate.

I think the funny anemia is beginning to get to me. I have no stamina.

I hope the new dog is The One, bonny. I'm looking forward to your adventures.

Jeezy, they have the one band in NOLA that can't keep a fucking beat. Srsly.

Absolutely. Just the down time I've had since my shoulder surgery has really cut my stamina. And I didn't have any blood loss.

Oh, bonny - I can't wait to hear how things go with the new doggie.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

They are being predatory and evil.
OMG! I hate to use that, but, not sure what else to type. From one missed payment? Just baffles the mind. Hey, but 'greed is good', right??? t /sarcasm font . Wow. I'm just floored. The hassle... OK, I'm just going to stop now. Laura, you go kick their asses!!

Jeezy, they have the one band in NOLA that can't keep a fucking beat. Srsly.
Maybe they aren't a real band, just actors pretending to be musicians... but seriously, I can't imagine a band in NOLA that can't keep the beat. The place oozes music and musicians. Crazy! Glad you are having fun, even if it is a bit boring. Did they announce winner of the costume contest yet?

Bonnie, I hope the new pup is all and more. Take it easy on the NJTP. Remember, it's a commute, not a race. Once I learned that, driving became a lot less stressfull.

Sumi, take it easy. You have to build your stamina back. You were in hospital for awhile there. It's not just a blood thing, it's an energy thing PLUS the blood thing. Half day was a great start.
