That sounds wonderful, Susan! Yay!
I really must go now. I am having trouble tearing myself away from the computer. Take care, everyone, and send some ~ma that my phone line goes in without a problem tommorrow.
Mal: That's not what I saw. You like to tell me what really happened? Book: I surely would. And maybe someday I will.

[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.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
And in a story so gruesome I felt it needed its own post, DH was stuck in a traffic jam while making his (late) way into work this morning. The traffic reporter came on KUOW and announced it was because of a jumper on the Ship Canal Bridge. A jumper who jumped, but missed the water and instead hit one of the streets alongside the canal.
Must stop imagining what it would be like to be driving down that street or work near where it happened.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
YAY, vw!!!
I'm finding the royalty discussion to be quite fun.
Speaking of Japanese culture, Confessions of a Grade School Role Model is an interesting look at being a gaijin in modern Japan.
Susan, how horrible about the jumper.

Legally, Diana was a commoner; although the daughter of a Duke, she wasn't noble herself.
Earl, not Duke.
Susan, ewww!!!! (Well, yay on the bills, eww on the splat.)
We got stuck in traffic once for a really long time when someone fell or jumped off an overpass and onto I-5, where he was promptly hit by a car or two.
I remember feeling really awful for the poor people in the car.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Earl, not Duke.
Great. Now earwormed with "Duke, Duke, Duke, Duke of Earl, Earl, Earl."
