Yay Nora! Go you with the productivity.

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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
There's a commercial playing on the radio telling people to take steps to prevent car theft. The step they're highlighting is don't leave your keys in the ignition of a parked car. This is a serious enough problem that the state of Maryland has put money into making radio commercials about it?

Sorry sj. Working. I got home for dinner break & couldn't find the game anywhere.
Steph, beautiful story.
The new mics sound good. Too bad the audience is dead quiet.

Ok, I have to admit, the blooming plants and trees out here are GORGEOUS. But, damn, I do wish they'd go get a room for their sex. My allergies are gonna kill me.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The Golden Girls was one of my favorite shows as a kid.
And Joss' dad was a writer on it.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
So, last week my former flatmate asked me what Prague is like, as she was applying for a job there.
Then last night she posts a Facebook Status thing saying "R thinks that Prague is a very elegant place to be." Unsurprisingly, I comment along the lines of "Isn't it lovely? So are you there for the interview, then? Or did you get the job already? Hey, drink a glass of Pilsner Urquell for me!" And another mutual acquaintance also posts "Oh, wow! You got the interview, then?"
And now she's messaged us both, thus:
thank you for your lovely comments. i would like to explain why i have deleted it. i haven't told many people at school about my plans and although the important people (like you) know about it, they don't. i'm in enough trouble at school at the mo without adding to it with gossip in the staffroom. so apologies for deleting your comment, i appreciate your well wishes.
love you,
R
And I'm just staring at the screen, blinking, going: "Discretion: you're doing it wrong."
