[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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

We get our professional pictures back Friday, and I cannot wait. I'm going to frame the hell out of them.

t edit And that's the only thing family is getting for Christmas presents this year. If you're related to me or Tim, you're getting a framed picture from the wedding. Or possibly a Viewmaster with a reel of wedding pictures, if you're my brother. Or Tim.

I would send the present to their home, in that case.

I have a friend who always gives fire extinguishers for wedding gifts.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

It's not a bad gift. You seriously don't think to buy them yourselves and hope to never use them. But something a home ought to have.

I need more tea. If I were looking online (which is not ideal but is what it is) for plain loose leaf teas, where should I start? I definitely want oolong but would love a place to try a few others as well. I have maybe two pots left of the lovely oolong that my flight attendant ex-aunt-in-law brought me from China. But she's not doing that route for a bit yet. I have to find my own tea.

I love this! For the reasons Cass said, plus...discount on your renter's insurance...plus, the metaphor of cool heads.

LOVE it.

Her dad is a fireman. So, they may already have one.

I'm thinking of picture frame or candle sticks. I'm not going to buy anything until I get out to California - why take up luggage space?

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

Argh, still no phone call re: mortgage preapproval, when I was told I'd hear from her today. Now I'm paranoid that there's a problem and I'm not going to be able to buy.

Maria, you know there's going to be an election next November ... and there will be new people in Congress and their staffs will need a place to live. You might well be able to sell the Frederick house in a year.

I'm way too far out, and I'm $150K upside down. It's going to take years to get myself out of this situation if I don't want to default.
