Buffy ,'Lessons'
[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.
Mom was always tall and then she grew a couple more inches when she was in college.
My brother didn't hit his growth spurt until 9th grade I think. He was convinced he'd be short forever. We have one grandmother who is short. Both my grandfathers were around the 6'3" range, both my parents are 5'11" and my mother's family is tall. But, no, my brother was convinced he was going to get the short genes.
Then he grew 8 inches in a year and now he's around 6'3".
Happy Birthday Lexine!
Erika! Sistah! Your tagline is my credo, my battle cry. Fuck cute. Baby ducks are cute.
Ginger - the last few years, the temps during Spring Training in Phoenix have been very reasonable. In fact last year it rained. Now, the time i visited in June - hooooooooooooooooooooooot.

Yikes! I grew four inches in one year and I thought that was bad.... (I am also 6'3".)
Yeah, Tep, I watched "Bull Durham" again over the weekend...it had been a while, and I think I love it more! Our weather in June is an awful, cruel thing, with the worst of the cosmic joke being July 4.I always wondered what it would be like to, you know, enjoy fireworks without wondering where in hell you are. Spring and October are the best we have.
Happy Birthday, Lexine! I hope the presents are fabulous!
vw--it is a hard life, but there might also be a cultural bias toward darkness in stories and songs. A Chinese-American friend was talking to me about "Crouching Tiger" in terms of Peking Opera and she said "Chinese love to cry. They don't feel they get their money's worth from a show unless there are a lot of tears." Chinese in daily life are more cheerful and laugh a lot, but in the theater they want the sorrow, even today. Maybe there is something like that going on? My dad worked in Appalachia for 3 years in anti-poverty work and there was a lot of horror but also a lot of camaraderie and sly joking and goofing around.
Happy Birthday, Lexine!!

Maybe the human drive for catharsis?
