[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Totally waving pitchforks like they are pom-poms on your behalf, Teppy.

Waving torches at Hil's pain.

Yeah, that sounds....at least really pretty dumb, if not actually shady. Dang. I will hope they have excellent explanations tomorrow.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I can pitchfork!

I'm not saying they CAN or they WILL, but I really hope that somehow they DO write back to you tomorrow with a simple solution and that the problem just dissolves into the ether.

I'll be bummed that YET AGAIN I don't get to use a torch, however.

Aw Hil, that sucks so bad. I'm sorry.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I hope they do, too -- I'd prefer simple easy solution to my raaaaaaaaage -- but it's just so damn shady. Even when it's a VERY worthy cause, how do you NOT tell your paying customer that their schedule might be thrown off?

I am glad I read about the tour tonight, instead of showing up at the B&B the day of the wedding and being face to face with a tour group and the proprietress selling donuts from a card table. (Which raises the question of, if she's busy selling refreshments until 4:00, when is she going to cook dinner for 50 people?) Because THAT? Would have made me lose my damn mind and flip out like a mammal.

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

Yeah.

Large amounts of Advil have gotten my pain level down to a 6 or so, which might be good enough for me to attempt sleep. Sleeping on the couch tonight, since it's marginally more comfortable than the bed when I'm hurting like this. Supposed to teach Intermediate Value Theorem and limit definition of derivative tomorrow. Both are complicated things -- can't just give a half-assed lecture like I might be able to with some other topics. Not sure how well I'll get through.

It's going to take more than Ambien to get to sleep tonight. I am WIRED with raaaaaaaage.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Pitchforks, check. I would be flipping out like a mammal.

Oh Hil. I hope sleep helps you and you feel better tomorrow.
