Though sometimes, for no known reason, it's "Amy chuh."
I've always used this pronunciation.
Me, too. Although the "-uh" part of "chuh" is swallowed a bit.
I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

[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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Exactly. High-fives Steph.

How much did you enjoy saying this?

Because books.
It's always "aim-ick" and "aim-ith", clearly.

Probably way more than I should have.

Okay, so tomorrow is the 5-year anniversary of my back surgery. Seriously. Five years. And I still haven't gotten tired of talking about it.
What I really want, to commemorate it, is a vertebra. Preferably a cast model, rather than the nifty rubbery models that doctors have to show their patients where exactly all the pain is originating.
So I found The Bone Room. I can get a cast of a vertebra for $5, or....an actual human vertebra for $20.
Would it be utterly creepy and ooky to get a real human vertebra?
They have nifty jewelryas well, including earrings made from mink penis bones (scroll down).
They also have capybara skulls (scroll down).

Only if you try to pass it off as your own.

Wow! 5 years. I swear it doesn't seem like I've been part of this community that long, until someone posts something like that. The human vertebra looks kind of cool.

Holy cow. Five years? Can't be. That JUST HAPPENED.
