Whew, for a minute there, I thought I'd killed the thread with the Guinea Pig thing. Yay for middle-of-the-week date-age, bt.
Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Spike's Bitches 29: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I listened to an NPR piece by Bartlett. It was fascinating.
I heard an interview with him about the book on NPR Friday or last night. I remembered the title.

Today sucked SO BAD. I'm still shaking and I'm going to have an emotional hangover tomorrow. I can't explain the reason, but tomorrow, please remind me that there are good things in life. Someone - please?

Betsy, I think that it's overpriced by about a hundred dollars, but I'm fairly cheap, shop around a lot, and am going in large part by how overpriced the other things that seller has offered in various places have been, compared to how much I'd spend at one of the local antique malls.
However, if you like it an awful lot, sometimes a little more is worth it for something unique.

If I only had a brain...
I'm not sure it's unique, though; I just like the utter simplicity of it, and you do see that now and again.
I'm having a tanzanite ring made to replace one of the ones that was stolen. Still missing my enormous red garnet that was cut to my order in North Carolina. Sob.

I'd look around. I mean, you could probably have it recreated in higher karat gold for the same amount or less. (It's been ages since I had anything made custom, but for a simple setting and an inexpensive stone--which lab sapphire is--it shouldn't be that expensive.)

I think I'd enjoy that. Of course, I'm also thinking seriously about tsavorite garnet, which can be a wonderful deep green.

(((MG))) I, and every other woman who used to be a teenage girl thank you and apologize. I mean that very very much. Being a girl is difficult at best, and yours are lucky to have someone so caring and understanding in charge of them (even if they don't think you are or want you to be).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Plei, when I read this, I thought of your Lilybean protecting her little friend's nose.
