hooks the caffeine IV up to Kristin
Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My major rule for my wedding, once I actually find somebody who'll marry me, is that there will be no "Sunrise, Sunset." I assume that "No chicken dance, no electric slide, no macarena, no YMCA, no Club Med song" would be taken as a given.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Happy Birthday Anne!
Feel better, Nilly!
Nice song, tommy, I'm stealing it. Yup.
Our ice is all melting and we had fog for a while, and now it's just sunny. Pretty!

Now tagless for your comfort.
Birthday Happies to Anne!
Get-better-ma for Nilly.
I hope the guy who just knocked on my door asking to shovel my walk learned his lesson. He got the dogs barking madly and they woke the baby up from his nap. I gave him a nasty look and said, "no thanks." I need to get out there an shovel it myself or I'm going to have a dozen requests to clear it before the day is out.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Things a wedding needs: Bride; Groom; Tasty Cake-like Substance. All else is optional.
Plei, being still in some measure a Philly girl, I immediately imagined a wedding cake made of Tastykake.
And someone somewhere has probably done it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
No chicken dance! Also, no hora despite the many greeks in attendance. We did however do a conga line to The Clash's "Rock the Casbah" and that was very fun.
Hec, the next time you talk to her, could you please let her know that I adore her work and am goggle-eyed with envy that you know her well enough to make video compilations for her?
Oh Jilli, I don't know her personally. I'm just going to send it to her as a fan. I did meet her at A.P.E. three years ago and she was very pleasant and entertained to hear that (then 5 y.o.) Emmett was a huge fan. (Which he was.) Also, I got a really cool set of pins with the Blue Monday characters on them. One of which is holding the back of JZ's jacket tight. At that same A.P.E. I got Ariel Schrag to sign two of her collections which I sent to Lizard. Also, that's when Kim and I got together and conceived Lost in the Grooves. 'Twas a momentous A.P.E. for me. It was at the next A.P.E. however that I got a Strangers in Paradise drawing for Kat.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
No chicken dance. The midwest will just have to be scandalized by our doubtfully-married state.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I've only been to two WI weddings (three if I count my own) and one MI wedding. No chicken dance at any of them.
I've only seen it done on a boat on the Potomac River. Never in WI.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Erm, we had "Sunrise, Sunset" as our father-daughter mother-son dance.
No chicken dance, no macarena. We did the hora, complete with chair lifting and people entertaining us.(If you saw the wedding pictures I mentioned, that's when the juggling by the guy with the bottle on his head occurred)
Of course, we did kinda go full metal on the wedding...
