Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.  

[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.

Trust my rage

Sometimes I hate where I live. Last night the power went out twice, there were two cat-in- heat episodes which drives my dogs crazy, and a car alarm woke me up at 4:30.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Bah. Has anyone else here ever lost his or her sense of smell during a cold (and not just due to stuffiness)?

Oh, Stephanie, no fun!

Yes.

And, my favorite scarf pattern says to work to 72".

That's reassuring, vw. I assume you did get it back eventually? This is all very disconcerting.

{{Stephanie}} not fun, especially when you are pregnant and need your sleep!

Compassionately intolerant

Please could I have a lovely British boyfriend?

Oh, thank you FairyFayMother!! Any LBB (lovely British boyfriend) coming from your wand will be enchanting and smart and sexy and fun. I could ask for no better!

Oh, yeah! I get it sometimes with bad asthma attacks too.

Trust my rage

ok, I am beyond angry. I sat at the midwife's office for 45 minutes this morning only to hear that she's not coming in today. But she will be there tomorrow. Except that I already took off today and I can't just waste leave hours because I need them formaternity leave. I'm so done with that place.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I dreamt that I randomly met Norah's Tom at some function or other, and rather than being very shy and unchatty (er, as I sometimes find myself - I mean, it can go either way, but when I'm nervous I can either be excessively talky and confident-seeming, or excessively quiet, and weirdly both are perfectly sincere, because I am some kind of shy/confident freakazoid) we nattered away with the banter and the bon mots (which apparently I can't spell), and I remember thinking "Yay! My social skills, let me show them to you!" in a pleasantly surprised sort of way.

Heh. Tom is very much on the shy/unchatty/excessively quiet side of things. But if he's given conversation opportunity (and beer) chances are he can warm up to it. Takes a while though, so he generally does not get into conversations with other shy folks. So much silence!

t is psyched to be one degree from Faye's dreams

Morning all! This afternoon I leave for Maryland for funereal activities. I slept poorly last night and had nervous stomach ache/mild nausea. Bleh.

Oh, Stephanie, that is ridiculous! I'm so sorry.

Also, unrelated, did you get my e-mail yesterday?
