If someone turns up dead, to me (like Nutty), they might have been dead for yonks. When he turns up dead is when we find out about it.
For me, it's a statement of fact: he was found, and when found (whenever that was), he was dead.
And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
So, I've been working on a paper for the past week for a medieval women's lit class and its been kicking my ass. It's due tonight. Would anyone who digs lit crit be able to take a look at it in the next hour or so? It would be much appreciated.
Mostly, I'm concerned with my thesis. I think it may be buried.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Send it. I've got my MA specializing in med lit.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Connie, you know, I thought about losing those last two lines, but decided that if she didn't say it out loud, she didn't get a boyfriend (since it was her journey to admit). And I really wanted her to get him. Such is the internal life of people limited to 100 characters.
Thanks, you guys, for the compliments.

"You did? Really?"
"Honest to god."
"You weren't backed up against a dryer, or anything?"
"Nothing. I swear. Just kissing."
"Dude. Where were his hands? I mean..."
"Just kissing! His hands were on my face, in my hair, on my back. No further than first base."
"I didn't know that happened in real life!"
"Trust me. It's not some porn urban legend."
"So ... you gonna see him again?"
"What do you think?"
"Well, I was just wondering if I could try kissing him."
"Get your own, girlie."
"How? It's not like you can tell by looking."

HA! Love that, ita.
But fix a typo, please? "real ife"?
