The Real Housewives person that I felt really sorry for after the last episode was Lexi, the 12-year-old daughter of one of the Housewives. Lexi's father is Greek, and she was packing for spending a week in Cyprus with him. She picked up a bathing suit to put in her suitcase, and her mother said no, that bathing suit is from last season, and you can't wear it now because your boobs have grown and they'll be falling out of it. Isn't being 12 difficult enough without your mother talking about your breasts on national TV? (Let alone the several allegations of mob involvement that have come out about most of these families.)
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

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.

“Not dead yet!”
The Boy votes for the second pair, as long as you have an outfit to go with them. I told him I was pretty sure that wouldn't be a problem....
This is one of the dresses I had in mind. I was going for polished and professional with a touch of whimsical coming from the shoes without it verging into ridiculously campy. And the patent is actually a really dark, dark blue as is the dress.

Ooh, I love the blue ones. Also, now I want pancakes and bacon.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
See, if I picture the whole outfit, the resolution in my mind's eye is not high enough for me to see the mesh, anymore, and I like those shoes a lot more.
Mmm, pancakes and bacon.

OK, it's a nice day and lunchtime. I am on the couch after working my ass off yesterday for 13+ hours. Do I take a walk into town for lunch or dispatch Tom to get curry takeout?

I started the last phase of my AD switch yesterday. I feel like ass, but I am trying to remind myself that it won't last.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Morningstar fake-on?
...I have no idea what that is, but having just finished writing porn involving Lucifer, it does not take me to a breakfast-related place.

Morningstar fake-on?
Vegetarian "bacon" from the brand Morningstar Farms.
I'm trying out a recipe for vegan mac and cheese. I haven't baked it yet, but I tasted the sauce, and the dominant flavor is mustard. Mustardy noodles sound interesting, but not what I was expecting with this recipe.
