It's like, if it were here -- someone says, "I do X," five more people say, "Oh, you do X? I do Y or Z," and it's all cool. If someone said, "OMG you SUCK for doing X! X makes you a terrible person!!!"? Much less cool.
Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well, unless it is kicking puppies.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I forgot: Happy Birthdays, new jobs, and Solstices to all Buffistas to which those apply!
Going to see a play on Thursday--"I Am My Own Wife"--and I am so EXCITED! I almost never go to the theater anymore.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Jesse, what have you been up to?! [link]

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Heh. I just ordered that script. Tell me what you think of it, will you? And yay live theater!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That's what I'm saying, yeah. I may not have said it well.
Also, I get a bit defensive because I have trouble remembering if I'm supposed to do Father's Day, because we don't do Mother's Day. And my family gets really irritated by Valentine's Day (well, my mother and I do. So my mother sends me a card about marrying a rich man, and then we laugh). It can be a weirdly touchy subject, much like telling your kids there's a Santa Claus or not -- you'd think it'd be an individual family choice, but in fact lots of people get all het up about whether other people should do it or not.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Huh. Jesse had a moment of perfect happiness. Go her!
bon (and other gossip hoors)! Did you see the NY Post blind item -- the most obvious blind item if you've read much Defamer? Not that I care what Owen Wilson does in his spare naked time, but it was startling to read a blind item I totally got.
WHICH blond stud, nicknamed the "Butterscotch Stallion," has a perverse sexual bent? He recently picked up a girl at a wedding and the two went back to his hotel room. When the woman asked if he had a condom, the actor replied: "I don't want to have sex with you, but I do want to do something else" — and proceeded to lick her buttocks for "over two hours."
I may need a life.

Ooh, "I Am My Own Wife" should be excellent.
Jesse, what have you been up to?!
Shit.

You said it well. I was just being Devil's Advocate-y because the LJ private/public divide is interesting to me and I'm still trying to figure it out.
