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

It wasn't till I came here that I was exposed regularly, casually, and socially to "my future ex-husband/wife" as a way to describe someone you're not dating yet.

I quite like it.

To the point of using the term "your future ex-brother-in-law."

It's oh-so-So-Cal.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Jesse, I'm glad your dad's not an asshole. My HS bio teacher, on the other hand, was a grade-A jerk, and I had an even lower tolerance for that kind of humor then than I do now.

Ditto what Jesse said. Of course, he refers to himself as her first husband. Whenever my mom refers to me as "your daughter" (usually dryly, for when I'm exhibiting characteristics that are so very him) he does the "I have a daughter?!?!" thing in his exaggeration voice. It's not meanspirited at all. He's a big goofball

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Much recovery~ma for your father, Matt.

I am so ready for the weekend. Which is sad, considering I had Monday off and this week still seemed to last forever.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's been an all-around crappy week, if you ask me. Which you didn't. But I'm still staring at the clock and twitching.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think the week should be beaten with sticks....

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?

My uncle Phil always introduces my aunt May (no, really) as his ::first:: wife, to keep her on her toes. Of course, they have been married like 25 years and she just rolls her eyes 4evah.

When people tell my mom that she's too young for children in their 40's, she likes to say that they are my dad's by his first wife. She just neglects to mention that she IS his first wife. Cracks me up every single time.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

And I was just grousing to my minion about the lack of close, cheap Indian at current workplace. Feh.

Heh. I live just off Devon (aka the Sari Strip).

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

My dad always called my mom his bride, which I found rather charming.

Jesse - Oct 21, 2005 10:33:39 am PDT #7765 of 10002

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, I'm glad your dad's not an asshole. My HS bio teacher, on the other hand, was a grade-A jerk, and I had an even lower tolerance for that kind of humor then than I do now.

Oh, I totally get the thing where you hate a person for a ton of reasons, so you hate everything they do.
