Edit: And x-post.
Sweet lumpy minion, you're the only one that understands. Probably 'cause I haven't sucked the brain out of you yet.

There are some...women in particular, that kind of get high offmetaphor for metaphors' sake...me age 15. And I would laugh at the golf course, but I wrote garbage dumpster love...so no soup or moral high ground for me.

I cannot praise it highly enough.

I thought Deb and I were the only people who would ever like that story, but you've heard that one.
