[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

He just got home, and said that his bike ride didn't even pass by half the places he was tagged. That's really bizarre.

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

So i unfriended him and deleted the entire conversation thread. I'm waiting with dread for messages in my email box because he is a genuinely decent person with whom i've been friends for decades, but i'm also deeply relieved that i no longer have to remember to filter him out of certain posts or face the troll-like consequences.

Just tell him that. "You're a good guy, but the way you respond to me on FB causes me nothing but stress, annoyance and aggravation. That's not a good medium for us."

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Congrats to askye!

Continued job~ma and permission to bitch to the Bitches to Maria.

Zen to Shir.

erin, sounds like a good move. My friend N has pissed me off so badly that I'm done being polite, and he may be done trying to talk to me on fb. Which is fine, because his fairy land libertarian mansplaining bullshit was about to send me through the roof.

I'm spending my Sunday at the ER with a friend. She fell and hit her head Thursday night, and had been sleeping 16 hrs a day since. Also nausea and barring and not feeling better. So I insisted she let me take her in, and here we are. They think she's okay but are doing a CT scan to check for swelling and make sure her eye socket didn't fracture and an X-ray for her shoulder. Of course she's uninsured, restaurant industry and unemployed, which is one reaone she didn't want to come in.

This is the second time this week I've used my First Aid geekery powers for good. And I directed traffic at a minor accident scene.

Not how I planned to spend my Sunday but we're having some nice hang out time, so that's good.

And now they've said she's fine and I feel terrible for making them incure a bill they cannot afford.

Always Anti-fascist!

It's always good to find that your brain is not broken. Not even Applecare can fix that.

smonster, you don't want to fuck around with a head injury. You did the right thing.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm avoiding Facebook because I don't want to deal with it. I went in with blinders to send along some birthday wishes and checked my 'close friends and family' people. Keeping myself surrounded by the like-minded for sanity's sake.

smonster, you would feel worse if she had a serious issue and you hadn't gone.

Thanks. And apparently they already owe the hospital a lot of money money, so it's nothing new.

Man, sometimes this world just sucks, you know?

Thrive to spite them

Now I need the housing situation to work out. I should have taken a chance on the place in St Albans.

Will and I are trying to figure something out, but everything is either expensive, a scam or doesn't take pets. I'm looking at sublet and roommate situations but that's no pets or looking for roommates in their 20s.

So turns out the apartment in town I looked at is still available, she's showing it tomorrow but I'm giong to drop off an application and hope for the best. It will be a looong drive to and from the new job.
