Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

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.

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

Not only blissful, but completely at ease! Awesome pics BT. Congrats again on the wonderful addition.

Shir, WOOT! Way to go! (told ya so)

Seska, ya, who ever stole your motivation, nicked mine as well. Let's go hunt them down (in other words, screw going to work).

OK, back to the studio today, and then a visit to the construction site. In 2 weeks, we have our gala dinner in the new building, whether or not it's ready for us. Joy!

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

And now, I must go to bed, as I'm collecting them tomorrow. Night all.

Sleep as much as you can tonight - it will be your last full night's sleep for at least 3 months!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That is one good mammal. Well, three good mammals, but I think you can only take credit for the one.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

That is a handsome boy, there, Mr. Tea. And a glowing wife, and oh, that chap with the baby there? Perfect picture of happy and proud. Male pattern baldness comes down through the female parent, though, so Wallybee's dad shouldn't influence Ryan atall. Um, hair-wise, that is.

-t, we're still in NC. I have the rest of May to sort, cull, and pack. I have dispensation to take A to see Up! while everybody else packs the truck, and then we're off on June 1st. Road trip! We're trying to do as direct and stop-free as possible. We'll be in WA until early September, it looks now, then fly back to NC to help StY with household maintenance, hang out for three family birthdays and Thanksgiving, then pack any odds and ends we've found a use or need for into the van, and take a more leisurely southern route, with some stops along the way, and be back in WA by early December.

At least, that's the plan now.

Got it, Sparky, and backflung.

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

That's one awesome baby, billytea!

Seska, ya, who ever stole your motivation, nicked mine as well. Let's go hunt them down (in other words, screw going to work).

I'm all in favour of this. You think a vodka or two will take the work requirement away from us both? That's what I usually do when faced with a lack of motivation. Well. When faced with a lot of things. Well. When there's any excuse at all.

Hey. New board.

Those are some ADORABLE baby pics.

I am feeling positively dreadful. I woke up pretty okay this morning - tired, a bit, but fully functional. Came to school. Covered a music class (the instrumental teacher is out, along with some other teachers, uggh), then came upstairs. Had another prep, and planned my lessons (no classes this morning, but I have three after lunch.)

During all that, I felt fine.

Now, within the last few minutes I'm suddenly feeling cold and shivery, sneezy (from allergies, it feels like, but it adds to the misery), and have a stuffy head. My ears just popped, and I feel like I'm full of cotton balls.

Hoping that it's just dehydration and am downing some water, but I will be MAD if I'm teaching sick in the afternoon after a morning of no teaching. Truly annoyed.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Baby mammal! All warm blooded and has hair just like the best mammals. Look at that family.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I just walked three miles thereabouts! Whoot!!!

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

Adorable little bundle of mammal! He looks very secure and content, and the two of you are just aglow.

Mmmmm. Breathing in that sweet new human smell. Don't they smell delicious?
