Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers  

[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.

hey Suzi, I hope that today goes OK, and that you don't stress out too much. Like Zenkitty said, this family stuff is just so sticky.

OK! I have eaten a carb-o-riffic and fat-tastic lunch of leftover homemade mac & cheese and leftover spicy tofu pad thai (and salad) and also a half a beer. (Hair of the dog, dontcha know) I have showered. I have brushed my teeth.

I am READY to write!

(yeah... see you guys in about 3 minutes...)

Good luck today, Suzi!

Girl's Guide To Moving Heavy Entertainment Centers

I used to put towels under furniture, but I just bought some of those slidy things that you see on late-night TV and they actually work, mostly because they're easier to get under the furniture.

My cold has morphed into the World's Loudest Cough.

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

I should be writing, or at least researching. Instead, I am planning the garden.

I don't even garden.

Hah! Homeowning did the same to Tom. Soon you'll be sending away for seed catalogues- those are very helpful in garden obsession, I mean planning.

Have you made diagrams?

Was there a Bookcase Incident involving personal injury??

It could be worse

Laga, thank goodness I don't have a light frame like that woman---otherwise, I fear that would be my doom too.

I have! And I have all kinds of ambitious ideas. It's the actual planting of, and subsequent failure to kill, stuff that's going to be a problem

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Hah. When we were house hunting I was obsessively checking light requirements, (full sun, partial sun, shade), and soil requirements and trying to figure flower beds, and... basically I've done very little, but I did buy a whole bunch of bulbs and plant them in the fall. I'm hoping the rabbits didn't eat them and the weird warm and then cold weather we had didn't kill them. I love bulbs. A bajillion of them are windflowers, which are some of my favorites.
