Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

[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.

"Live in the neighborhood of misrepresentation"

I think I have a new tagline.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Wait, how do you cold brew in a french press? Just leave it unpressed in the fridge?

Heh, that's funny, Steph. I'm the Boy in this scenario. I drink hot drinks all year round, and the SO never drinks anything hot unless he thinks he's just about to die from cold. But he doesn't drink iced coffee, either, mostly pop. Thus the preeminent position of the Penguin in our household.

(eta: Hee. I was just thinking that would make a good tagline.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Just leave it unpressed in the fridge?

In the fridge or on the counter - it's not my preferred method because I have a Thing about grinds in my cup, but many people swear by it.

I bolt down ~2 mugs' worth of (cold) coffee before I leave for work, and then for the rest of the day I drink fizzy water. Hence the revered status of my fizzy water maker. (The Penguin is totally cute, but I drink so much fizzy water that the size of the bottles would drive me nuts.)

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

Omnis, why do you just try walking on the treadmill today (if it doesn't hurt).
No can do treadmills. They don't fit the crutches all that well, and the hand rails are too high. I'm going Su, Tu, Th, so maybe by tomorrow, this minor pull will feel better. If not, I'll skip the ab machine, and stick with just the bike.

Well, just the Ten Commandments:
Huh. Maybe this is why they went to war with us in the 40's.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

What do I have to make the obnoxious person next to me stop trying to talk to me?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

What do I have to make the obnoxious person next to me stop trying to talk to me.

"I"m sorry, I need to concentrate on _____, and I need quiet to do that, please."

Tell him his incessant blather is drowning out the voices in your head, and you really need to listen so you'll know when you're supposed to go on your next bloody rampage.

I'm at the hairdressers and luckily she is getting her hair washed across the room right now. Her hairdresser even apologized to me. What part of me staring down at my phone and ignoring you don't you understand?

Number of guys today who thought I'm religious, despite a very obvious cleavage: 2.

Obviously, Shir's cleavage is a religious experience.

and put me in the iced coffee/tea year 'round corner - I'm usually too warm and I prefer my beverage as cold as possible.
