Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

[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.

The weather's nice here, too, if a little unnervingly above average, but the state's lost its damn mind for the millionth time so cannot current recvomend for Bitches. Unless we do a same-sex kiss-in on the capitol steps or something?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I was just reading about that, erika. Ai yi yi, what the hell, Country?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I think I have asked this here before, but how much should I tip the woman who shampoos my hair at the hairdressers?

Laura, I'm wishing all the best for your eldest son. May his talent eventually pull him through.

Can I have a do-over for today, please?

Our wings are not tired.

Absolutely! I kind of need a do-over for the last few months. Not sure if that is any more or less likely to happen.

Thanks, Laura. I went to a restaurant on my way to my hairdresser's appointment to try to get a gift card for her because I hadn't seen her at Christmas. The door was locked, and I was about to leave when I saw three guys go in. So, I got out of my car and went in the restaurant. Waited for the people in front of me to order their take-out, only to be told that the guy at the register doesn't know how to do gc's. Got lost, was very late for my appointment. Stopped to get a falafel for a late lunch (which I've been trying to do for 4 days), only to find that the restaurant closes for three hours in the afternoon. Came home to find my new to me (refurbished) kindle fire had been delivered, and I opened it up to find a long crack in the glass. I don't like today.

Argh. I don't like it for you, although my version is quite good, for once.

Ugh, that is indeed a very unlikeable day.

The one sort of plus side for the day is that my doctor is calling in an antibiotic prescription for the uti I most definitely have despite the fact that the test results aren't in yet.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Laura. Darling. Sister. I have no advice at all to offer, but utter sympathy and support. There's nothing at all we can do, and it's so hard to just stand and watch the train wreck, and hope they wake up and decide whatever it is they need to do, and then do it. But good for you for keeping it out of your home.

Ginger told me once when we were traveling west together to some F2F or other, "They make underwear where we're going." Words to remember and live by.

sj, sorry about the day. Betters tomorrow.

erika, sorry about the state. It seems a lot of them are sliding in that direction. Fire in the streets, people, just you wait. Um. Did I say that out loud?
