Wow, you told your mother you had sex? As far as my mom knows, I never have.
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

[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.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Mostly lurking...

Well, it wasn't really my choice. It's this long, complicated story...

If I only had a brain...
Then why go?
Usually it's work-related or family-related. Sometimes it's dear-friend-related, and there's no good way to say "I love you a lot, but parties make me feel all weird inside."
Every so often I enjoy one, and I always hope that this will be the party.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
My mom is oddly invested in making sure that I have sex.
I don't know if she thinks a celibate daughter reflects badly on her, or what, because I don't think any parent should have a stake in their kid's sexuality.
Like I said, we have boundary issues in my family.

Okay, then.
I am proud of you for making it into work today.

For my mom, a non-celibate, single daughter is a bad thing. Sex is for marriage only, thank you very much. Although, we both have a "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy about a lot of things.

Ann, that's a ferret.

The opportunities to mess with a parent's mind....

I am so jealous. Seriously.
For my mom, a non-celibate, single daughter is a bad thing.
My mom once called me for the sole purpose of demanding, "Do you HATE men?!?"
Me: "Whuzza?"
Mom: "Well, you never date, so I wondered if it's because you hate men!"
Me: "Mom, I hate everybody. It keeps things simple."

There was about an 8 year period when I didn't really date. Certainly no one I told my mother about (I don't tell her about guys until they've been around about 6 months and look to be around a while longer). When I finally did start seeing someone again that I told her about, she sounded very relieved. I think she may have begun thinking I was a lesbian.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Jeez, it's been over seven years since I've dated anyone. I went out with the guy for maybe five weeks and broke it off since he wanted us to spend all our spare time together. Not enough "Hell no!" in the world.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Jeez, it's been over seven years since I've dated anyone.
But now that you've got a sassy haircut, and a strategy of poaching gamers I think we can reset your clock in a matter of months.
Not to put any pressure on you, but you're really far too cute to be fallow for so long.
