I've been trying to think of some charitable interpretation of the remark by Aimee's MIL, but all I can come up with is that she needs to be beaten soundly with a cluestick.
Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Sorta circumspect, ain't ya? However, if Harvey and Sammie liked him, that's a very good sign!
There was snuggling. There was Buffy and Princess Bride and Burns & Allen watching. There was state parkage, and grilling of burgers. There was some other activity, but Dang It! I have to leave something to your imagination.
ETA spelling. And? The waitresses at the Chinese buffet I usually go to by myself grinned and giggled. We must be cute or something.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Aw, giggling waitresses. Nice!

I am so glad windsparrow and Dan had a good time! and I am sorry you have to part. May the parting be brief.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The reading went very well tonight even though it was long (long long long). Still fun was had.
Sparky and her husband came! Yay - thank you for trekking down when I know you are beset with troubles and have other things to do with your evenings. I really appreciated it.
Also, long time ago Buffista, Bridget Striker came by.
And then when we were packing up, a very nice, lovely woman approached me and asked me to sign her book. Then she said, "Actually I'm a lurker who supports you in email." She said she'd been lurking on the boards since back in the TT days, and was in town for the event and decided to swing by. Made my night - thank you, Dee.
A long time ago I said I thought of the long-time lurkers as being like the angels in Wings of Desire -- beneficent, invisible witnesses among us. And meeting Dee only confirmed that suspicion.

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

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Aww! What a cool lurker!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Hi. Yay for cool lurkers.

What is even happening?
Ooh! WindSparrow and Daniel schmoop! Yay for making the waitresses giggle!

"Actually I'm a lurker who supports you in email." That's so very cool. Hi Dee, if you lurk here.
Hec, I like the way you think of lurking Buffistas.

Mostly lurking...
Timelies!
WindSparrow and Daniel, sounds like you had such a nice time. I'm so glad!
Hec, such a cool story! Hi Dee!
I got a full night sleep! Yay! Maybe getting through today will be a little easier. I've got an important appointment this afternoon with a Social Security benefits counselor. It's mostly an information session, but I need to figure out what I'm going to do when my supplement and health insurance end in July...trying to think ahead.
