You have such a unique voice, erika. While I enjoy well-written fanfic, I think it requires subsuming your own voice to the voice of the creators. I really enjoy reading your original work and I'd like to see more of it. Totally selfish on my part.
If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Thank you. And I suppose Luther Mahoney isn't going anyplace.

{{Anne}} Much house-moving~ma to you. I think it's cool you'll be in St. Louis. Now there'll be even more Buffistas in the midwest that I could possibly drive to in a day.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Thanks, Sail! Where are you located?
Also, does anyone else find that when someone tells them--repeatedly--not to panic, not to cry, etc., that they're more likely to panic, cry, etc.

Where are you located?
I'm in Madison, WI. So, I consider a lot of the midwest as my stomping grounds. If I can drive there in a day, I'm just as likely on a Friday to pick up and go and come back Sunday.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Anne, I've noticed that too. It's like telling them there's nothing really wrong, which means you don't understand the seriousness of the situation, or the intensity of their emotion. I've found the best way to calm someone who's seriously losing it is to mirror their emotion a little bit, and then calm both of you down. If you can afford to do that.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Ginger, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. I'm sure there's more of his work I'm familiar with, even though I don't know it's his. Deb's right about "time is a river," though. And Sail's right about the increase in speed as I age. I know that it happens to everybody isn't really a comfort, but I'm sorry for your loss.
Lilty--that's a gorgeous picture of a beautiful kitty! And I love the fact that her name is Gershwin.
Cindy, I'm sorry about the meeting-missage and the feh-feeling. But none of that makes you a bad person, silly. It just means you're tired and probably down because you're tired, and maybe a little sick. It's the holidays. We get run down. (((Cindy)))
Ooh, Anne, I'd be freaked, too. All the moving-ma in the world to you. And jobma in your new location, as well (and hug Jeeves for me and skritch his chin, please. Just because). Past the being freaked, are you excited?

Hey, Bev! Did you post in the middle of my lj layout tweaking? I went through a couple of color changes before I settled on one I liked. I'm doing "house-cleaning" I guess.

I love playing with LJ pages and icons. Actually, I love finding stuff and shoving it at Deena and letting her play with it...
...I'm so lame.
But she does such good work!
Your new color scheme is cheerful! As long as it's not colored text on a black or dark background, you're good with me. I've been known to C&P text into another window when I couldn't read, say green or red on black.
