breakfast talk has made my decision - DH can sleep, but I am goingto the coffee shop. he will have to catch up later.
I'm not evil again. Why does everyone think that?

[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Laura, that sounds like a lovely day. Have fun!
vw, I'm smiling knowing that the book cover art is getting a shiny new frame. It suits you very well.
My day has started with coffee and me trying to figure out if I want to go to the farmer's market and grab some flowers. I think I do, even though it means that I won't still be wearing my fairy princess jammy bottoms and will instead need to put on actual pants.
Then I shall be slothful and watch Too Much Racing and pray that my phone doesn't ring with any new or continuing crisis.
eta: mmmmmmm ... pancakes.

"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "
A new girl has mysteriously appeared in my Physics class. Gwen's beautiful, smart, and popular. I have the horrible urge to either pledge my undying loyalty or start calling her Mary Sue.
I never felt like I was living in someone elses bad fic before Buffistas came along. But you guys have excellent taste and great advice so....
How do I get rid of a real life Mary Sue?

Emily and vw are being far too virtuous for a Sunday morning.
See, I got woken up at nine freaking o'clock by some combination of the stage being put up outside my window and the dog barking at it (while lying on my bed). And we've put it off so many times, and later today was going to be such a mess with the festival... it just seemed reasonable. I doubt it will ever happen again.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Mary Sues never leave the story until they've fixed the lives of everyone around them, and/or died a tragic and heroic death.
Your only hope is that the story she's in is not yours, so eventually the plot (such as it is) will move her away from you.

Hey. New board.

Give her an excuse to die tragically saving the hero.

Mostly lurking...
I doubt it will ever happen again.
Oh, yes it will, little missy! If nothing else, 'cause I'm a big, fat (emphasis on the fat) meanie.

"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "
The closest thing we have to a hero, is the drug addicted valedictorian who is considered the hero of smokers everywhere, for being smart and high. How's she going to die tragecally with that? Sell herself to the Cuban mafia in exchange for enough weed to get all the campus students high?

Hey. New board.
Well, she could selflessly take possession of smart!high!person's way-too-large stash right before the police come in, get accused of possession with intent to sell and take the rap, allowing the valedictorian to ace another test in the future. She'd be in jail, at least, if not dead.

...that's brilliant! Even if she becomes the Mary Sue of an all girl cast of Oz, she isn't my problem! This is why I love you guys. You always help me make people mysteriously disappear.
Ah... the influence of Tim.
