I am not. even. touching. that concept.
Faith: A kid. Angel's got a kid. Wesley: Connor. Faith: A teenage kid born last year. Wesley: I told you, he grew up in a hell dimension. Faith: Right. And what, Cordelia spent her last summer as… Wesley: A divine being. Faith: Uh-huh. Can I just ask--What the hell are you people doing?

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
You all do know that the "southern" genre is referred to, by southerners, at least, as "grit lit," right?
What sort of irresistible force is bearing us ever more inexorably back to the Eisenhower-era 50s? I can't seem to find a firm toehold in the present or a fingerhold in the future to resist the nastiness.

Ew, gross. White gloves, those torpedo bras, and cheery heroines who sing. If nothing else, we have to stop it just to keep that stuff from coming back into vogue.(there are tons of other reasons, of course)

If I only had a brain...
Hey, Dana sings, meara sings, I think sophia sings. Back off the singers.
And I'm sure SOME Bitch owns a torpedo bra.

I sing too. Not in white gloves or a torpedo bra.
I'm afraid I'm firmly with erika on the subject of Eisenhower-era "ladies". This is not why I learned to kickbox, damnit.

It's not so much the singing as the songs... buffistas and "Que Sera Sera?!" I don't think so....unless it's a drag show, or something.(Cause I was in the choir in high school, myself. Had more hope than talent.Still sing along with Aretha in my sad white girl fashion when I'm alone sometimes. Not dissing singing as a gift, Mary Sue excepted.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I love the revised stanza, Steph.
It becomes a magic spell: I won't deconstruct why it pings me. Because when you take apart a spell, or a mantra, and to try to apply math to it? You risk depleting or eliminating the magic.
Random tangent, but one of my favorite quotes (I'm pretty sure I had it as a tagline for awhile) is Karl Weierstrass: "A mathematician who is not also something of a poet will never be a complete mathematician."
