Franny's parental preferences are directly related to what she wants to do, although I tend to think she prefers Daddy, but I'm a close second. I'd say Daddy's more fun, and way easier to manipulate, but I'm the one she goes to for TLC. But with the baby there is no question that I'm the favorite. Sigh. It doesn't last forever, so I'm enjoying it while I can.

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'm undecided, if I want it to end well. Or, what well really is.Exactly. I'm not sure I want the happy ending. The tension is fun, but I don't know if I buy it yet. There was interesting tension but I haven't bought into it yet.
Still, the ring is sexy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sometimes very wrong things are sexy. Like the new kid on Desperate Housewives (not a spoiler, since he was in the end of S1). Now, it's on my resume that I have nothing against the younger men. That kid is exactly what catches my eye in a younger guy, but it's key that he's young. I mean, that's part of what makes that particular intense, relaxed and thoughtful persona more than just "nice." It's blisteringly attractive in a teenager.
I know that's supposed to be wrong, but I have, as an adult, been attracted to 17 year olds before, and since I was past 30 at the time, I can't be sure it won't happen again. It's just that it was a legal attraction at the time, since it was in Michigan. And I really didn't do anything about it other than make good friends.
Now, the 18 year old ... a whole 'nother ballgame.

Silence means security silence means approval
No cable. Can't get UPN in clearly. Can't watch show. ABC doesn't come in well, either. Can't watch other show.
You know, there's supposed to be super-cheap super-basic cable offered in Seattle per the franchise agreement. $12 or so per month for the channels on the uppermost tier (all the local affiliates, Discovery, NWCN). Probably still out of your price range, but oh well.
When I lived in the Rainier Valley, we got one of these for our TV and got everything pretty well (and Beacon Hill was blocking 4, 5, and 7 from us line-of-sight). If you're going to go without cable, a unidirectional antenna is a must in this city.

Sometimes very wrong things are sexy.Sometimes?
It's not my biggest bragging point, but wrong can figure prominently into what is sexy. As can the 17-year-old version of *wrong* at times.
The wrong and the theoretical danger adds to the hotness.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I have to leave the apartment at 7:30 tomorrow morning.
That's gross.

Hope I don't vomit this time.

Perkins wins on the Ugh-ness.
I hope you don't vomit too.

It's our digital receiver's fault. It's weird and touchy. But when it's on, it's beautiful.
Honestly, I suspect a big part of the cable cancelling (which happened pre-pregnancy) on his part (mine was just that I wasn't watching anything) was due to Paul's hatred of the very messy digital cable signal.
