"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "

Hacksaw?

Hay- Stack shortened to hack?

Hack as in the creepy old-school coffins?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

And I just started thinking about it, and maybe in the putative new house, I'd be able to hang and display my wedding kimonos. That would be fun.

Also, we'd probably need to homeschool if we had kids 'cause of a) travel and b) the schools here suck. But we were both public school kids and rather like the scars we got from that experience. We wouldn't object to public school on priciple, though we might to specific crappy ones.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Ooh, maybe that's it. Maybe I'll die!

Well, I guess I will probably. Don't really expect to ride to heaven in a flaming chariot.

I thought being a Buffista means you don't go to heaven. You go to a Buffista heaven, like heaven but with "Lost Episodes That Don't Suck"

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Welcome, Almare. I was just thinking that practically everyone here has been here a long while.

The status is NOT quo.

Welcome Almare! I agree with Jesse. Very nice delurk.

Cindy, no-stress-ma for you and your son.

You do mothery things better for him than a Kristin or Kat would, but they've worked long and hard to be able to do teachery things.

If I wanted to homeschool a putative child, it wouldn't be because I thought I'd be a better teacher mano a mano than many of the well-trained people out there. It would be because I was suspicious of a school system, or wanted the kid to get one on one attention.

Thank you, ita. That was really nicely said and very much appreciated. (And yes, I think about anyone could kick my butt in motherly things.)

"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "

Well bon bon, as you may have seen, I am now nested here. Like, with a real nest of twigs and shinny scraps of quotes, with Hoyay on the outside to make it really pretty. For warmth, in the winter I will line it with Badfic on the outside, and scandalous pictures of high society women flashing people their ankles.

I may invite you for tea when i get settled, for now, i still need to unpack my (SVH!Sv)Clex.

Edit: I need to explain the SVH!SV. I'm very annoyed their the initials for Smallville. Everytime I see it, I get it mixed up with the old show "Sweet Valley High" and end up with images of Lex dressed as a cheerleader arguing with Jessica over who takes Tom(who wears a necklace with the word Hoyay) to the Prom. And Red Meteor!Clark shows up on a harly and invite Elizabeth to climb on. After they ride off together, it is revealed that Elizabeth is a female clone of Dominick, with a nose job.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Spanish-speaking peoples:

One of my clients is starting to produce some of its materials in Spanish. This means I find myself trying to figure out how to say things such as "No, I do not wish to participate in Operation Round Up." at fairly short notice. I can kinda sorta read Spanish, but creating it? Not so much. It doesn't seem fair for me to keep asking the hivemind for translations, since I am paid to do this stuff. Anyone interested in taking this on for the occasional monetary reward? The client does longer translations for various printed materials, but I'm left trying to figure out web stuff such as "back" and "next." If so, profile addy is good.

Almare, how did you find us? (Just curious.)
