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.
sorry, hon! I would offer to help, but all I could do is make sure that you have subject verb agreement :)
Hee. Thanks anyway. Right now, almost nothing is actually written -- I've got probably at least 30 pages or so of stuff, but it's in about 15 different files and several emails and I'm not even sure which of it is relevant and which isn't. Once I get to the end of the summer, I'm going to have to go through all of it and get it organized. Right now I'm focusing more on getting some more results, so that I'll have actual content to organize in August.
Congrats to GC & DW!!! Woot! That is awesome news!!
Drew, I'm hoping the radio silence means you are in the air. Dear god! It sounds like a Dateline episode.
Remember how I asked about getting that real desk about 6 months ago? Yup, getting bumped. Not a big deal, as I'll be moving into a new office once the building is complete, it's just the timing really sucks. As I am all day/evening tuning the sound system in the new building, then jetting away on vacation, they e-mail me letting me know my desk is getting taken over. Really? Um. Couldn't have planned this out a LITTLE in advance so I could clear the desk. I'm moving over to the off-site space, where I need to clean out the sound storage area anyhow.
But the biggest thing was I need to work on my confidence and I think now I feel much more confident.
In the time I've known you, Askye, it seems to have skyrocketed.
I am back at LAX waiting for Drew. His flight was originally supposed to land at 8:43. Last I'd checked before leaving the house, it was delayed to 10:08. Got here 15 minutes ago, and now it's saying 10:44. Could be worse. I once sat here waiting for him until 3 in the morning the night before I was scheduled to leave to chaperone a weeklong canoeing/camping trip. Yeah, that was three years ago. Early days in the relationship when I was crazy. This is much more doable.
My cat likes sleeping on my laptop. He finds things that I didn't even know existed. I guess he is teaching me.

Ha! I recall the time I picked him up from Burbank. Timed it PERFECT! Saw his plane land from the exit about an hour early. Then proceeded to drive laps around the airport waiting for him to get a gate. Finally parked on a side side street. I think total wait was about 90 minutes. Which was CRAZY for a perfectly timed arrival on my part, and an hour early arrival on the planes part. Poor ND. Not always the best luck with the air travel.
law of averages, I would guess. the more that you travel, the more you'll get screwed.
Hivemind: best way to clean a corset with steel boning? one side is irridescent satin, one side is cordouroy. it's reversible, I tend to wear it satin side out, but I think I'll switch it for prom. thoughts on cleaning? I seem to remember something with vodka in the costume shop.

Apropos of nothing, Steele Boning would be an excellent porn name. (And, by coincidence, he too could potentially be reversible.)
ND, I give you all the flying~ma. I don't need it, and think you should have it.
And now.
May I ask for your ~mas? I'll be handing in later today my letter of application to the very elite academic program I'm interested in. This could effect my entire academic future. And God, I wanna!
Yes, Vortex, you can spritz it with straight vodka to deodorize it. Might want to do a test spot first.
ETA: You know, I'm not entirely certain about the satin. I know that some of the bits of my outfit from last year's Prom, the woman who made it said I could freshen with vodka, but I cannot find her instructions at this moment.
