Oh, yes. That's a wonderful one. Very much a reminder of days past, Halloween parties at 17. Fun!
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Thanks, ma'am! Just channeling my inner teen today, I suppose.

I obviously had no social life as a teenager, because I never heard of this closet game till a couple of years ago.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
I'd never heard of it until today, but at seventeen, I was, er, doing other things.

Seven Minutes in Heaven, baby!
And we were, uh, a lot younger than seventeen when we were playing it...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I was about to say that, AmyLiz. I don't think I played after 12 or 13.

I was barely sentient at age 12, much less thinking of anything to do with boys.

I knew about it, but never played it, being sort of a pseudo-outcast kid until very late in high school.
(Which, just to be clear, I've gotten over--it just means I identify with Early Willow an awful lot. Now that I'm in my mid-30's, I'm working on getting over my 20's.)

Anyone feel like beta-ing my column for Romancing the Blog next week? I'm having a harder and harder time coming up with ideas, since I don't read romance as extensively as some of our readers (I have a few favorite authors, and story types, and I tend to stick to them), and I don't know if what I came up with makes any sense or not.
I can post it here, if anyone's interested. It's under a thousand words.

I can look at it after I get back from the errands I'm about to go run. Posting here or emailing to profile addy are both good.
