Dawn: I think a date should be in a real fancy restaurant, then champagne at a night club with a floor show, then ballroom dancing. Joyce: Unfortunately, we're not dating in a movie from the thirties.

'Get It Done'


Natter 31 But Looks 29  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I'm 34.

Cool, I'm 35. Right in the middle.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Robin, OTOH, is 67, and unless you see her right at twilight, you can't hardly tell.

Sean is actually 17 - it's the wild Hollywood lifestyle that makes him look like he's 93.

Hee!

Aimée actually pointed out to me that I said I was 33 somewhere on the board recently, but I'm not. I've hit that "I'm in my mid-thirties and I'll be damned if I can remember how old I am," stage.

Aimée remembers how old I am. I don't, but she does.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Sadly, I could not guess the ages of Pete and Jilli, for I already knew.

When in doubt, I tend to assume people are five years older than me (note: I suspect this is because when I was still active in various local scenes, this was almost always the case). Which is very annoying when it turns out that they are five years my junior.

Sean, I would seriously have guessed 28, maybe 29.

I don't act my age.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I think it's juliana, Jessica, and Shrift who always freak me out with how much younger they are than me. Just because, in terms of their life experience, I expect them to be as old as I am.

Damn those youngsters!

Heh. I've been doing that for years. Sometimes I have to stop and do the math. (34, FTR. Yes, I'm sure.)

Same here. In fact, I have the exact same problem remembering how old my best friend is. The only way I'm able to remember it right now is that we've recently been making plans to burn her 20s in effigy for this year's birthday.

Juliana's young too? Fuck.

I was startled to realise that Papa Roach are babies. Rock and rollers are supposed to be older than me, even if they're punk. Weird.

What goes into a Starbucks chai latte? Well, how much of what? I will be ordering one in about 20 minutes, and the barista is a flake.
