Mal ,'Safe'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Update (in case anyone was waiting with bated breath): My FIRM INTENTION to post my ComicCon 2004 pics has been thwarted by my CRAPTASTIC ORGANIZATIONAL SKILLS. I couldn't find the disk this morning. I'll try again tonight after dance class. That is all.
Except for Timelies to the Lovelies!
My last name is easy to pronounce, but people tend to misspell it by adding an extra L.
My last name is the easiest thing in the world to spell. People frequently leave off the last "s," though. So, I end up saying, "Like the season, only with an 's' at the end." That usually gets them.
So, my morning with financial services was a nightmare. Bastard had yet ANOTHER story on how this should go, and of course I was missing things. AND, he didn't NEED some of the things that he told me earlier were a must. I was so angry. And to top it off, he said I'd have to come back next week and reschedule all of my doctor's appointments until then. Well, um, NO. I had therapy scheduled at noon, and dammit, I needed it after that. So, I asserted myself and told him he was going to submit this paperwork today or else. Guess who is now pending?

Hey, are you related to Buffy?
Yay, vw, with the asserting! Very impressed.
I tend to get people adding letters to my first name and making it rhyme with my last name. Which...my parents are fuckedup, but they're not THAT cruel!
Lately I've been able to tell people, "Like the runaway bride."
I really hate that woman for making my name sound stupid and flaky.
t stupidly, flakily worries that employers will subconsciously have a negative impression of my name, because WHAT ELSE COULD EXPLAIN WHY I HAVEN'T BEEN CALLED BACK FOR THAT WORK-FROM-HOME EVENT PLANNER JOB YET, BECAUSE I'M PERFECT FOR IT! PERFECT, I TELL YOU!
Um, carry on....
I have a very nice simple last name, very rarely mispelled. It's nice, because if it had been the least bit complicated, my life would have been hell.
Way to assert effectively, vw!
ita, the mystery of your last name is occasionally the source of great time-killing amusement on my part.
ita Jones?
ita Smith?
ita Bug?
ita McTavish?
ita Humperdinck-McTavish?
I'm fairly sure it's not the last one.
