Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

Spike's Bitches 39: Cuppa Tea, Cuppa Tea, Almost Got Shagged, Cuppa Tea...  

[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.

My cousin's oldest son (I think he's 10) just got his own e-mail address, and he has taken to e-mailing me to tell me I should come visit and asking how school is going and stuff. It's so adorable.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I just got an email that another grad student and I are co-winners of our department's outstanding grad student prize this year! Email says,

More important than the cash award that goes with this prize is the recognition that it represents; also, this is a very nice item to have on your CV when you apply for jobs.

No mention of how much the cash prize is, though.

Hil, that's fantastic! Go you!

Oh, it's about my favorite thing ever. It's like eating a blueberry muffin with your coffee, only there's no actual blueberry muffin.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

That's great, Hil!

So "Eat a muffin, whitey" even applies to coffee?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

YAY HIL!!!

So "Eat a muffin, whitey" even applies to coffee?

I believe Denis Leary covered this in Lock 'n' Load:

Did I miss a fucking meeting with the coffee? You can get every other flavor except COFFEE FLAVORED COFFEE! They got mochaccino, they've got chococcino, frapaccino, capaccino, rapaccino, Al Pacino, WHAT THE FUCK!

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

IIRC, "eat a muffin, whitey" originally applied to coffee -- it's not about whitey liking muffins, but about whitey liking muffins so very much that whitey wants to make everything else taste just like a muffin.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Kitty~ma to Byron. We just visited Jo and she seems to be doing better. We got her to eat both times we visited and she purrs and is really happy to see us. I think they are all good signs.

ETA: You are welcome to come hang with us anytime, Miss Kristin!
