[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.

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

I've got a couple of different places where I can put my laptop where all they'll see in the background is blank wall and a closed door, but for either of them, I want to at least get the clutter off the floor around the area, just in case that can be seen.

Good luck with your interview Hil.

I had my dentist appointment. I like these people SO Much better the hygenist was shocked they didn't do a full mouth series at the other place. Plus they have the sonic cleaning deal so it didn't take as long.

There's good news and not so good news. Good news I'm not going to lose any teeth in the immediate future. Bad news is there are 2 cavities between 2 teeth that need to be addressed and I have periodontal issues that need to be fixed. And all my old filings need to be replaced at some point. The perio treatment is a laser thing, costs $56 for the whole mouth, insurance won't cover it. There's a new treatment for filings that doesn't include a drill, insurance doesn't cover it and it would cost $500 for both teeth. But not drilling.

And while my fillings need to be replaced it's not an immediate thing it can be done at some point.

So now I have to read up on ICON and figure out if that is a good choice for me (I'm thinking the lack of drilling is worth it).

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

Interview ~ma, Hil!

....I need to have more people in my life. I'm going to start going out and doing things. As much as I tend to prefer to sit alone in my house and live via the internet, I really enjoy seeing people face-to-face sometimes too. And I want to do more interesting stuff.

Oh, this is me too. Except for doctor's appointments and grocery store runs, I could easily never leave the house.

I had a Skype interview recently (for my new job) and I put my laptop on a TV tray in front of a blank wall.

You have a blank wall? Whoa.

There's a new treatment for filings that doesn't include a drill, insurance doesn't cover it and it would cost $500 for both teeth. But not drilling.

That's good to know. I had a between-teeth cavity filled and it took drilling out and basically re-creating half a tooth. I was Not Pleased. I prefer to keep the original equipment whenever possible. That dentist didn't do a very good job with it, either, and my current dentist had to fix it. If I ever get another one, I'll ask about this new thing.

I am eating pizza. I may eat the whole pizza.

The Icon procedure can only be done on teeth that haven't previously been filled.

So all of the replacement fillings will have to be done the old fashioned way but at least I can do this. It's not cheap but I think I'll do it just because of my dental anxiety.

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

Interview~ma, Hil.

I'm glad there's a plan moving forward, askye.

Working at home has made me much more of a homebody. I need to fix that.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Working at home has made me much more of a homebody. I need to fix that.

Me, too. And I didn't mind for about the first year (I am, at heart, a homebody), but I am getting a little restless now.

Punishingly Intricate

I get hypnogogic hallucinations

Ooh! Me too!! I can't have the bedroom or bedroom closet door open due to the shadows they throw.

My biggest clothing organizational breakthroughs have been getting all the same kind of hangers, filing my shirts (stacking horizontally not vertically) & doing a clothing cull every change of season. Having a neat husband who I don't want to annoy with my mess helps too.

Hi bitches! I am giggling madly while reading through the most recent posts, because I can't stop thinking how much this thread has changed since it was home base for me. In the last couple hundred posts, there have been no comments about wet naked people, handcuffs, or even world domination. What makes me giggle the most is that I would feel totally weird in this thread as it used to be, because, well, I'm different. But if we're gonna talk organizing and antisocial behavior? My people!

We have not gotten old. We have matured like fine wine. And I have no doubt we are all still snarky perverts at heart!
