Connecticut
I'm trying to convice my friends to name their expected girl baby Connecticut. It goes really well with their last name! Also, I want them to name the boy Jimmy Carter. Sadly, they seem to not be listening to me.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

[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.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Yeah, well. My mom told me about a couple jobs with a publisher in CT, but I'm not that hard up for a job that Greenwood looks attractive.
However, there is a job with St Martin's Press in Boston.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I lived in CT for years - but if anyone was to go live there - new Haven, not hartford. Hartford still feels like an insurance town, wwhere the sidewalks roll up at 6:00

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Timelies. I hope beth is still resting and her MiL continues to improve. Welcome back, SA! I went to Portland for the first time over New Year's and I loved. I'm kind iof plotting to move up there, whici is a little silly as I just moved here, but it's got a lot going for it. I think CT came up for me on one of those Find Your Spot thing. All I know about it is via Gilmore Girls and Kristin, so I considered it, but DH vetoed early in the deciding where to live game.

I lived in a nice part of Connecticut recently. Unfortunately there was no Indian or Thai food within 45 minutes, which was a hardship. My Spot wants me to live in Danbury, CT, to which I say, no thanks. But the other top choices were good (#2, Northampton).
After I graduated from college I lived with my grandfather in DC for a couple of months and temped, spent 10 weeks in Sicily on an archaeological field project, traveled Europe with my mother for 2 weeks, then back to DC and temping while my grandfather drove around the country on a widower's odyssey, then did some for-pay archaeological work in the mid-atlantic region. Then to graduate school, which was a mistake even though I took a year off before going to make sure I wanted to. Oh well.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
My spot wants me to live in Sheboygan, WI.
The only jobs available look like they are for AutoCAD drafters.
I am not an autoCAD drafter.

I grew up in the Danbury Area of CT. In Brookfield and Bethel. Not bad places. (that is where matt is now). 1 thai restaurant, 1 really good chinesse ( lets not talk about bad) , a couple of japaneese and sushi. We knew an Indian restaurant over the border in nowhere, NY. Best things about the area : Live music was easy to find,the Danbury fair Mall, October,24 hour diners. The worst thing- limited options. Everybody gets in to a routine- but it was so hard to break out of it - because there wasn't much else to do.
