Payday! People giving me money! Yay! I can buy my cats food and they can stop looking at me and Hubby speculatively. I just know Shadow's leaning towards Koogie and saying, "I'm the one with the teeth, so you trip 'em and I'll finish 'em."
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
askye, this is a big change even from last year! Congratulations on living the life you want and deserve.
t throws glitter everywhere

My buffista-versary is Dec...1999, I started posting. Wow. 5 and a half years!!
I have no other -versarys. I would like a schmoopiversary, though. awwww.
I'm supposed to make flan tonight. And then not eat anything after midnight, so I can have blood drawn in the morning. Better start soon, I suppose...

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I got tired of going back to TT to check, so I put it in my profile here:
Buffistaversary: June 2, 1999
first post, #1617 of 4014, motherthread, TT
TT was my first online experience--I got there after seeing Annie Lamott at a local writers' conference. She mentioned her column in MWT, and I followed breadcrumbs to TT from Salon.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
My first post was two days after Beverly's.

I have no idea what my buffistaversary is, but I date from TT as well.

I'm a late-comer to the crowd. I never knew TT and didn't start lurking until season 6. Still, that's three years ago. Huh.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I started lurking around Novemberish 1999, and posting the following spring sometime, I think.

I had a couple of list-based groups, both fannish and otherwise, that I was involved with around the time I found the buffistas. But nothing like this, and I'm not involved with either of those anymore. (One basically died, one I stopped with for no real reason.)

Thrive to spite them
I wonder how many of us fournd Salon and TT because of Anne Lamott.
