Inara: I think she looks adorable. Mal: Yeah, but I never said it.

Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

Maybe it's time she discovered cocktails.

Heh. That's what ice cream is for. Although she does love her Shirley Temples.

I loved a Shirley Temple when I was a kid. Probably still would, honestly.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

My sister once astounded a NYC bartender by downing seven (!) Shirley Temples.

Yikes, I would go into a sugar coma.

ah, she's made of stronger stuff (and, for what it's worth, they were fairly small if I remember correctly, but still ...)

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

That's...bizarre, Toddson.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

So, I have a 10:15 flight on Friday morning. My dad is giving me a ride to the airport. When I asked him, I wasn't 100% sure of times, but I said I was pretty sure 8:30 would be good and I would confirm. A couple of days ago when I got a confirmation email from the airline, I forwarded it to Dad so he'd have times & flight numbers, etc., and confirmed that 8:30 is when I'd like to be picked up (figure an 8:30 pickup, 25-30 minutes to the airport, gets me there by 9:00, so an hour and change ahead of the [domestic] flight, so that should be fine). Last night I see that I've got an answer, from my dad's email but clearly written by his wife, that they'll be picking me up at 8:00 because my dad's concerned about traffic. So now I'm annoyed - I already did the airport math, I don't appreciate you deciding that you know better than me, but whatever, not worth the fight; I'll deal. But then the email is closed with, "Be sure you're ready on time." I'll be 50 freaking years old on Monday, could we maybe consider not talking to me like a recalcitrant teenager??!!!!!!111!! I mean, yes, I struggle with lateness, but I think you don't get to give me a hard time about lateness if you independently decide to be a half hour early (and what's really great is he'll probably show up earlier than that, so even if I'm on time I'll be late)!

But because he's doing me a favor, I can't answer the email the way I'd really like to, so you guys get to hear about it. Thus endeth the rant.

And on another note: I'm going to Baltimore on Friday!!!!!11!!!!1!

Rant away! Also, yay Baltimore!
