And ya know, it kinda bugs me that the religious right are all het up about the issue, because back when I was stuck being a miserable good Christian girl in a sin-filled urban public high school, my parents, and all authority figures of the church we went to were always preaching how I shouldn't let myself be defined by anything going on around me. The purity of my good Christian girl-ness should shine the brighter for being surrounded by ... something other than the insular society of our own brand of xianity. So why can't fundementalist Christian marriages be content to be what they are, and not defined by any other marriages around them?
Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
the slogans and rhetoric against gay marriage now sound eerily similar to the slogans and rhetoric against interracial marriageThey really do. It's just frightening to realize that, though we think things keep getting better, they really stay the same in too many ways.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Because that makes actual sense, Windy. Sense has no place among the fundies.

HAHAHAHA - I love this collision of patois and topic.
In the time between my credit card company putting my card on hold, and my return from Molvania and sorting it out, LJ attempted to charge my card for my LJ, failed, and dumped everything.

Good. Tired. Need to sleep.
But I made some kick ass potato-corn-turkey ham chowder tonight. Just perfect for those chilly wintery nights.
Also perfect when it's on sale and quick.

Bounce, bounce.
I got kidnapped and got to play for a few hours. Plie and family, Kristin, Drew, Jilli and Pete are marvelous people. I know that is not news, but they made me very happy this evening.

(I cannot believe how much research I am doing for a piece of off-the-cuff BtVS/Supernatural fanfic. I now know more than I remotely ever needed to know about American College Football and the personalities, hopes & dreams of various UCLA cheerleaders.)
Fay, my sister in research! And curse you, for now I'll have to watch Supernatural.
We had Suzi and Kristin and Drew and A. Dorable and Jilli and Kitties! Whee!

Wow, you got home quick! Felt like I just got dropped off.
I have a couple of pictures from this afternoon/evening.
