[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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
my first year handling 911 and non emergency calls I was constantly wondering how some people are able to figure out how to put on their shoes and walk out the front door, much less dial a phone. Now I just hope for them to drink enough that they forget how to do those things.
Feeling a bit overly jaded and crankified tonight. Seeing a new physical therapist tomorrow and fingers crossed that has some more insight than....all the other physical therapists and specialists i've seen in the last 7 months.

I just got hired for a part time faculty position at a nearby community college and apparently at 42 I meet some sort of federal or state guideline that helps prove that they will hire old people.
This is interesting because, in the sciences at least, it is hard to get an entry level job before you are in your mid-thirties. It takes grad school and two or three post-docs just to build a strong enough record to get an interview. We interview people for beginning Assistant Professor jobs who already have 30 publications. A generation ago you needed two or three. It's like you need to put in long-term indentured servitude just to get a job these days.

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.
Do we need another kitten cam? Jackson Galaxy linked to this one on Facebook [link]

I just put my fundraiser post up on Tumblr. Asking for help is terrifying.
Oooh, kitten cam! Yes, that will help.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Jilli, I think you wrote it really well. Asking for help when you need it is a good thing!
Is there a word for that chittering clacking sound cats make when they see a bird they want that they can't get to?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

"Mycroft, you dumbass, you do realize what the window means?"
Or did you want one word?

"Bird! Bird! Bird! Birdbirdbirdbirdbird - ooh a bug! Bugbugbugbug!"
Tho' in our house, it is also the sound of Vlad rediscovering his mortal enemies, the kitchen chairs.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I usually translate it as "I will bite you and catch you and eat you and chomp you and kill you and grab you and..."
