Perhaps posted elsewhere, I've done a lot of skimming, but thought that you all might enjoy British Actors Reading British Poems in honor of National Poetry Day (which was Thursday). Include Benedict Cumberbatch, Alan Rickman, and Helen Mirren.
Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.
[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'm very sorry, Pix. Condolences to you and your family.
I'm sorry for your loss, Pix. At the same time grateful that you had such a beautiful woman in your life. Also, yay LA Marathon!! That was the last one I did, 11 years ago. Took me a little over 8 hours (but I finished), and hung up my sneakers.
sj, erikaj, I sometimes wonder how you manage to not punch people at times. eta: it would serve to let them know exactly how well you are doing!
Hoping that the endo finds easily fixable issues, Ginger. My sister goes every 6 months because of issues she has. She seems to think it is no biggee.
My plans for departure to Florida this morning got put aside for at least a couple days. Someone lifted a sheet of checks from my desk apparently and cashed one for near $3K. The person's name apparently matches a 90 year old lady in Pompano Beach, so likely identity theft as well. So I didn't really want to deal with all the communications with the bank in setting up another account and so forth on the road.
The check itself was printed and different fonts were used for the person's name, date, amount numbers, and amount written. 4 different fonts! Not sure what software prints that way. It was the first thing I noticed when I looked at it. Ugh, bother.
Pix, I'm so sorry. She sounds like an amazing woman who live a very full life.
Laura, that sucks. Just more bullshit to deal with. I'm sorry.
So sorry, Kristin.
Laura, what a PITA.
Hi, everyone.
I'm so sorry, Pix.
Sometimes I totally want to, Laura. Sometimes, though, it's more of a delayed reaction, like, "Really? Still?"
Ugh Laura, what a huge PITA. I'm sorry.
And sj that is just ... boggling. Ugh.
Okay, enough ugh for now.
sj, ugh. You need better relatives. There are Buffistas who would apply...
Sympathies on your loss, Pix.
Vortex, thank you for that!
ETA, somehow I skipped Laura's post. That's both rude and tacky, Laura. Not to mention exasperating and inconvenient.
Um, OK Cupid help? Sent like three messages back and forth with a guy, talked about Doctor Who a little, and he wants to know if it's inappropriate to ask if I like cuddling.
