[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.

I shall not scream. I shall not scream. I shall not scream.
Thanks, Emily. Now, who do I have to kill to unify all those senseless rules? (Unless there's a good reason for them, which I can't see at the moment...)

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Someone talk me out of flying to LA in two weeks for the weekend. Just found a price for $117, nonstop, roundtrip.

“Not dead yet!”
I am back home. The excursion, she was a success-- there were many books to be had at B&N and a nummy lunch (mesquite grilled chicken salad). All told, it was about three hours and at the end of it, I was very happy to get back home.
Now I'm tucked in bed in my jammies, with a bottle of green tea, the laptop, new books, and a Labrador on my feet.
A nap may be in my immediate future as well.
(Speed bumps still hurt...)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
At $117, I'll shove you on a plane myself. Except that it would cost me a lot more to get to MI do the shoving.

Oh, Barb. Glad you were out, and glad you can be comfortable again in your home.
Edit: spelling.

I know how you feel, Aims. Poking around on the interwebs, I discovered that it's cheaper for me to fly to London than the F2F. Tempted by the fruit of another . . .
