aww, it's okay, love -- I meant to be jokey-pouting, but that probably came off way harsher than I intended about your scary cult shiny toy.

[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.

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

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
Ok, all caught up now.
my kitten keeps leaving baby kitten teeth around the apartment for me like a wacked-out easter egg hunt. They are odd, three pronged like tiaras. He's still eating fine, and his death-breath improves after every lost tooth. Go figure!
Meara: exciting! i do need more social events :)
ION, i am thinking about trying to become a 911 call answerer/dispatcher person. I've got great multi-talking and listening skills and doubt i would ever get bored. Anyone know what the suicide rates are like in that line of work? Just curious ;p Sean- you are the greatest boyfriend EVER and can now use the alone time to do fun things with her computer! Unless it is at the hospital with her. Or sleep.
And anyone bored with facebook should add me (erin nelson) i can totally show you things to keep you occupied.....in a NOT DIRTY way, of course :)

All is well that ends in pizza.
Speaking of the Food Network, I want this book! Alton Brown's Feasting on Asphalt: The River Run.
He was on NPR Last week talking about that. [link]
It seems two of the restaurants they visited on the trip have burned down since.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I have never been a dispatcher - but I did software testing for a company that makes it...and worked with them
1) people/ communication skills have to be high -- paniced people /drunk people / people with strong accents call .
2) you work all shifts all days. do not expect xmas or t-day off.
3) they do pay shift differentials.
People that like it, seem to stay. Most people that do it , know it is vital.
good work, hard work, not a lot of money for the job

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
OMG, am taking most annoying sexual harassment course. Not because of the content (Though it's this faux-cheerful "journey" to a "ultimate harassment free workplace")
Now I'm curious. How exactly do you render a workplace free from ultimate harassment? (Now I feel that should be capitalised.)

If you outlaw Frisbees, only outlaws will have Frisbees.

Step 3 is Profit!
I refuse to believe that Frisbees are the key to Ultimate Harassment, if only because I have never seen my brother with one.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I thought step three was make her open the box.

The park that contains my local dog park also has a "disc golf course". It took several tries to figure out they were talking about Frisbees.
Gah. My flight tomorrow that I thought was at 9 something am is actually at 7:45 and the airport is an hour away. And I still need to run the dishwasher and put suet in the birdfeeder. Not to mention I haven't packed my carry-on. And DH has a work thing to do at freaking midnight. Gah
