Oh, yeah, baby, it's snakalicious in here.

Spike's Bitches 32: I think I'm sobering up.  

[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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

GC - I would say the hat. She's little and those masks can be hard to see out of.

What is even happening?

I was wondering if that was part of it, Kristin. Thanks. What you say makes sense.

Compassionately intolerant

I vote hat too. Such a cute outfit, it would be a shame for it to be uncomfy.

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

It's the gold I've noticed, in particular.

It's 22 or 24k. It's gorgeous. I love it love it love it.

Is this too dressy for a baby shower?

I'm still perplexed at the idea of not knowing by the time you start university.

I was always kind of amazed at having to decide what to do for the rest of your life at such a young age. Of course, it may have been sold to me a little hard -- maybe people DO change tracks?

(re the gold) It truly is, and me too, Trudy. If I am actually in conversation, I have a hard time not remarking on it. It makes you want to touch it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yeah--I think we were supposed to get a taste of the world at 15 and 16 (though if you were me, you slid through loopholes and dumped as many arts courses as possible) and the specialise at 17 & 18. Then you go into detail at 19, 20 & 21.

The system fit me so well that I forget not everyone felt so sure. My sister was a bit less predestined, so she waffled for her Master's.

Because books.

Maybe not with boots, and more casual jewlery.

I'm still perplexed at the idea of not knowing by the time you start university.

I always knew I wanted to write -- or at least do something that involved books -- so I have to remind myself that others may not know when they start college. And I keep trying to focus Jake on what he likes, what he's good at, so he can have a sense of what he might want to do when (and if) he gets to college.

High school has changed, though, since I was there. I don't know if it's for better or worse, though.

It doesn't have to be the rest of your life, though. It may very well be for me, but I know I'm a freak case who made her mind up the first time she saw a computer.

As noted above, my sister didn't. She ended up with one degree in anthropology and two in Latin American studies, and has worked so far in AIDS research and is about to start teaching university.
