Spike ,'Get It Done'
[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.
My family drives outsiders crazy by carrying on one disjointed conversation for days, so that one of us will be telling a story and get distracted, and then hours later say the punchline.
but with the outside world, I have to be very careful, because it's the kind of thing that gets you labeled "know-it-all, insufferable, smart-ass."
I am, apparently, Barb.
I thought it was the coolest thing to see the moon following me home on the ride home from where ever we were. I also observed the Y shaped streetlights on the parkway, as they came closer, the Y appeared to shrink a bit. It was the coolest thing. And ya know, learning science and math, and why things do what they do, did *not* decrease the cool factor!
I had my interview for top candidate. Went *very* well. Looks like there are 2 weeks of possible conflict at the start of the contract. However, it appears, just as I was leaving for that meeting, a note went out saying there was a company meeting. Today. That I got, just in time for my return to my desk. Except, at this hour, the meeting is 45 minutes away. C'mon people! ADVANCE NOTICE ≠ 2 hours! @@
Holy shit people. It is 80 degrees and crystal clear skies in Alaska right now. It is so fucking beautiful!

Drew, no fair taking the good weather back with you. It's overcast and rainy here again.
I've been out on deck for the past couple of hours taking pictures and shooting some HD video. We'll see how it turns out but I've got about 5 or 6 minutes total of 1080p footage of the scenery. It's just so clear and amazing without a cloud anywhere. I was chatting with one of the crew and even he was blown away by how amazing this week has been. He said when we pulled into Ketchikan yesterday and he saw how clear it was he almost started crying. It is apparently just never this clear.
I was in Ketchikan years ago on an Alaskan cruise, and, yeah, it's pretty up there. I also liked the times when we were just out on the ocean and covered in fog and you couldn't see five feet in front of you. It gave me a real admiration for the early explorers who had no goddamn idea what was out there and still kept going.
Finally, one day, he got thoroughly frustrated with me and said, "How can you be so SURE?" And I had to go back and explain every logical progression and theory I'd already run through and he just sat there, open-mouthed and said, "There's no way that you went through all of those that fast."
Bwah! I do the *exact* same thing. It drives both DH and myself crazy - DH because I'm a know-it-all smartass, and me because I don't understand why he doesn't trust me to already thought of all those things!!
I am insanely jealous of ND right now.
Hubby is the one who makes the logical leaps, and he gets *pissed* when I don't make the same leaps. We cannot work on the same project if there are multiple ways to do something.
I don't understand why he doesn't trust me to already thought of all those things!!
You just nailed why I get so frustrated when boyfriend doesn't "get" my leaps.
