Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I went to high school with a whole family of Mormons, and they were not all that attractive.

FYI.

Now tagless for your comfort.

It's as if Joseph Smith's (or is it Brigham Young's) secret mission from On High was to breed a population of extremely pretty people and raise them as sexually repressed as possible. What's up with that?

Mine wasn't too sexually repressed.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The Mormons I have known have not been remarkably hot.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Mine came over to sit in the empty seat next to me on the plane because he'd seen me laughing out loud by myself in the airport.

He was impressed by how much I knew about Mormonism (in all honesty, if Shawn Bradley hadn't recently joined the NBA, it'd have been much less).

Unfortunately, there was no corruption. Still, I'll cherish my copy of the Book Of Mormon forever. When I find it again.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Most of the Mormons I know/have known have been gorgeous.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Hello? The Osmonds!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Maybe they send the hot ones out singly to ensare the shallow?

Present company excepted, obviously.

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

Most of the Mormons I know are not very pretty.

I know a lot of them, too. I'm not sure how that happened.

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

Someone [eta: in my meatspace] was just postulating that they see a lot of ugly Mormon guys who've managed to snare stunning Mormon wives.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Having a Morman family living down the street from my childhood home, the thing that I remember the most about their religious habits was that the kids were unavailable to play with on Monday nights. That was "Family Night" for the Wilsons, which my sibs and I thought was pretty darn cool, if a bit strange. ("What d'ya mean--you don't watch TV on Monday nights at all?! And you all play games together? Wow!")

On a different subject, I was just checking my remaining PTO time for the year. I've got to get going with scheduling some of it, because I've still got 23 1/2 days of my original 33 left, and it's already halfway through 2005. Too bad I can't cash out some of it (I could definitely use the $$).
