That wouldn't be too dramatic?
Not if done artfully.
Of course, you'll have to wait until winter -- damn leaves are everywhere now.
You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
And you are right about a lot of that, David. I totally admit, and already admitted, a lot of that.
Well, I'm not trying to win an argument or even disagree with you. I think you're self-aware, and I'm just validating the batteries-out-of-phone option for the moment.
I am just hurt and furious and broken because I really wanted to believe that she was doing okay.
I can see how much it's tearing you up. I know it feels terrible.
You have valid points, I just don't want to get into a heated discussion when I know I am upset and overly sensitive.
I'm sorry. I don't want to add any heat to this discussion or stress to your situation. My only concern really is about your relationship with your niece and suggesting that forebearance now could be the best way to preserve it over the long haul. Nothing more than that. I don't care about you "seeing it his way" except in the strategic sense of knowing how much leverage you have.

I have nothing to say except (((((Cass))))). I'm sorry sweetie.
ND and I are in Paris. Ah, slot machines in April... Wait, something not right there.

Cass, I wish I could spork some sense into them.

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.
I laugh at your "large" feet. 11 wide, baby!Vortex is me... and apparently, so also is Perkins.
Seriously? You had to lead me to a Jodie Foster as Nell place? Wind in the treeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Right, I hope you realize I am now earwormed for "Wind Beneath My Wings" - which, I'm not sure why, but there it is, and what am I gonna do about it? Other than make sure to spread the earworm, that is.

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 sorry. I don't want to add any heat to this discussion or stress to your situation. My only concern really is about your relationship with your nieceNo need to apologize. Just felt I should cop to the fact that I am really upset and hurt. My default is to lash out at times like that. It was a preemptive self-Doblerization before I started getting defensive without being attacked.
Really? My only concern in all of this is the neicelet. I mean, I am not going to destroy my family so it's a non-issue. It's tempting to imagine how it could fuck up my brother's life but only because I am torn into pieces over things he's said to her. I want her to be healthy and happy and she's not right now.

It's fun to imagine tormenting your brother. It may have healing properties. You should make a music video in your head.

That's a terrible and helpless feeling.
