The poor dear. I think we should adopt her.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Because books.
I saw that one. It was heartbreaking. I didn't watch it through to the end, either, becayse when her "friends" went shopping for her, I assumed it was going to end badly. Poor thing.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I've been to Cass' place. Not only does she not share a wall with anyone, there's at least a few feet of yard between her and each of her neighbors. That's some impressive sex.I was in the kitchen, at the sink. There was my whole driveway and a little walkway in between.
I don't know about the actual sex but the aucoustics certainly were impressive.
At the point the neighbours can hear, I think we've reached "I hope you've brought enough for everyone" territory.I'm not sure, but I suspect it was solo. At least I didn't hear another guy's voice.
But he wasn't going at it again this morning, so I got my dishes done.
I want public transit. And Zipcars. Most all of my tootightdiamondshoes are tires when you get right down to it.

If you get the chance to have a friend's wedding ( not the reception nessicarily, just the wedding) in you backyard, do it. The whole world apprriciates it. everyone is amazed and astonished. and they say nice things about your house and garden. and even nicer things about you .Oh, it sounds like it was lovely, beth. Your descriptions made me smile at how perfect it all seemed for them. Happy making...
And this 14-year-old stood her ground for a bit, and then she just started weeping, and choked out, "You say you know me and you know what I like, but this is what I like! This look is me. This is me. All this comes from my heart, and you're telling me you don't like it."Noooo! Not happy now. Now sad. Oh the poor dear...

beth, that sounds lovely! I really like the detail that the groom dyed his hair in the wedding colors.
Gah, poor thing! It's not like she accidentally dresses that way because she doesn't know any better. Grr.
Guests are gone!!! It turned out to be a pretty good visit, and I really liked the 24 (and a half) year old GF. I think they reconciled whatever needed reconciling while visiting the islands, because they were both happier and getting along when they came back. But still, it's nice to have the house back.

Now THAT'S funny.
Poor little babygoth. Asshole parents need to learn to pick their battles, you know? They could TOTALLY spin this into her being good as gold, "It's now how we'd like you to dress, but we respect you for you." could get a bit of respect in return, eh? At the very least, "We don't like this and we don't understand it but as long as your grades are good you can dress how you want." is a bargaining chip. Duh.

Oh, the poor little gothling. She sounds so sweet and bright, and to be dragged on a tv show and humiliated like that is NOT what she deserves.
At the very least, "We don't like this and we don't understand it but as long as your grades are good you can dress how you want." is a bargaining chip. Duh.
And it's great bargaining chip! I don't understand why more parents take that route. But then, I also don't understand why some parents completely flip out when their kids don't want to be like everyone else. Gaaah.

Neither do I. Which means Annabel will probably be effortlessly popular and happily conformist, and will rebel against us by joining the Young Republicans.

Poor little babygoth.I am very sad about this.
I am not on any drugs right now. I am trying to see if I can wait until 1 to take the flexeril (or until there is even a twinge of something new) and get an idea of where my back is.
I also want to get my brows waxed but I think the place I go will be closed. This is feeling very 4th of July to me. I should call them.

We keep saying this about Mallory too...although he'll probably just rebel be being apolitical or apathetic, and a jock.
