Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

[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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Yay for iPhone! Somehow I don't think I can call you for free just because you have an iPhone.

Hey, all you can do is try.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Yay iPhone!

Oh, and also.

I GOT THE INTERNSHIP! Step two: getting into HUJI School of History, and the year will be sweet.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Toast.

Is there a name for the terrible mix of embarrassment, frustration, confusion and self-reproach that one feels when one erroneously posts as someone else on the internet?

I'm at a friend's house, waiting in for the plumber for her while she's at the doctor. We post on the same disability messageboard. I forgot to sign her out, and posted as her. I quickly got the post deleted, but not quickly enough to avoid confusing some people. Ah, boards without self-delete or edit functions, how I despise you - why can't you learn from b.org? Sigh.

"English".

Heh. Yes, I feel English quite a lot these days.

Have now dropped a cup of tea all over my friend's chair. And with my new wrist splints on, and everything.

I should go home and go back to bed...

Our wings are not tired.

All kinds of ~ma headed to Nora and family.

Good to hear your mom is released, Hil.

In frivolous news: i watched "vampire diaries". it was even worse than expected.

I didn't make it past about 45 seconds. I watched the cowboy thing on SwhyFwhy for a little while then gave up on live TV and went to bed with a book.

Congrats, Shir!

Oh dear, Seksa. English and human. Hope the day improves.

Hey, billytea. Supposedly life begins at 40. I had my kids at that age too, so it was a new life that started then for sure.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

... And I just got a call from School of History.

It's a nope, even before the interview. Because I'm missing 0.8 points to the grade they want.

Goddamn department. I really wanted that. You know, to actually think during my B.A., not only to chew up articles they know by heart.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, Shir, I'm so sorry. How frustrating and disappointing. And, their loss as much as yours.

But, still, INTERNSHIP. And Nilly's wedding. On the same day!

“Not dead yet!”

Yay on internship!

Boo on HUJI School of History.

Yay, Nilly's wedding!

Random. Searching thru streaming Netlix, I see original BSG. Is that Face from A-team as Starbuck?

Yep.
