Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.  

[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.

Hubby sometimes reverts to wolf and woofs at me. I will woof back, and we can have conversations based on tone of voice. Then we realize we have witnesses who are looking at us funny. Then there's when he's tired or coming out of sedation, and I have to bounce between multiple languages. And then people say we're cute, and we both get bristly.

It was an accident, it was sheer luck, and it was all timing.

Ayup. Damned frustrating life thing.

I have a friend, and we can have full conversations with nothing but meowing each other.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

All of which sucks rocks to hear when you're the one who's single. Because how the hell are you supposed to know when your timing is right?

I KNOW. I mean, sometimes I wonder if I should be being more aggressive, but other times I realize that so much of life is RIDICULOUS SHIT YOU NEVER EXPECT so for all I know it's going to work itself out all on its own. My current potential future wife takes a week to respond to e-mails, so it's taking longer to determine whether we're right for each other or not.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

current potential future wife

I just like that phrase.

However, since it can mean that, doing itt in front of others is kinda rude, I think.

This is why I was disgusted by the veritable fuckton of juvenile PDA at the Burbank mall yesterday, when I walked over there to find some lunch between shows. Oh my dog, teenagers are gross.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

joe and I treated his cousin and her husband to the Aimee and MiracleMan Show on Saturday. it was funny I am one who sometimes misses the beginning of love love. But I adore the everyday real life companionship love I have with Joe. He is my very best friend. Nothing seems real until he knows about it.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Ugg. Just had to write a hard e-mail. Vendor from gala complaining that his crew is demanding extra money because they had to carry heavy equipment up stairs. Um. Elevator! And not once did they say "hey the elevator isn't working" or "hey, this wasn't part of the bargain, it will cost more".

I think I'm leaving work early today. So there.

Our wings are not tired

Omnis, don't feel bad. After the fact is not the time to bring that up. I work as a vendor all the time, and it's on me to immediately bring a change order in front of my client if things have changed. If I don't then I get to eat the cost.

Um! Even if the elevator was out and couldn't be fixed, were they carting loaded eight foot leiko road boxes up a LOT of stairs? Or a full size CADAC or Midas in its case? Because otherwise I'm having a hard time buying that the hardship was outside the normal bounds of what his crew should expect to face on any given job.
