Yes IRL
Fair enough. But unless I'm having a freaky remote viewing incident, it doesn't explain where I've seen it happen before.
Mal: If anyone gets nosy, just, you know... shoot 'em. Zoe: Shoot 'em? Mal: Politely.

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

Do you have all of the eps waiting on your tv as well?
Yeah, all three others. Which seems so few--even when I remind myself they're two hours long.
Sitting and fiddling with art mesh to recreate Aunty Entity's shoulders. Lots of fiddling.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Well, the gift is for Tim. He doesn't wear jewlery, buys books, movies and music at an astonishing clip, has beautiful clothes, doesn't need any knick knacks, I can't make something with the alotted time, and I know he does wear comfy loungey pants when he's up late writing.
Other than comfy flannel jammies, I'm unsure what else he'd like. I could toss in some homemade cookies.

I am sneezing my brains out. And I didn't even spill the pepper this time (you know the cliche about pepper making you sneeze? It does me. In fact, pepper in an omelet will make me sneeze. So weird.)
I think pjs are like cash gifts at weddings: it depends on the giver and the receiver. Which is no help at all.

The status is NOT quo.
I know he does wear comfy loungey pants when he's up late writing.
In that case, I think you should label them "killing jammies" and perhaps add some bloodstains.

ION, Travelocity can bite me. After spending too much time dithering over flights, dealing with crappy javascript and browsers and far too many travel websites, I finally bought my tickets. And I'm quite happy with them. So now Travelocity sends me an email with purported flights to my destination that are a wee bit cheaper. Feh. OTOH, they'd probably make me have eightymillion layovers, one in Chicago (NEVER AGAIN NOT EVEN TO GO THERE,) make me fly out at ohdarkthirty and then overbook the flights too.
So I'm happy. Yes, I am. Stupid capricious airtravel.
And I still haven't figured out xmas. Oy. Skip the parents, skip the brother family or spend 5 days flying all the fuck over.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Baked goods are always good fallback presents. Except fruitcake.

I LIKE FRUITCAKE.
Maybe I should go lie down.

My momma makes a mean fruitcake. Mean, as in gets you tipsy but doesn't drive you home.

How does that differ from who women are used to receiving clothing from?
Judging from how all the women here except Cindy responded, I'd say in how the gift would be received. But I have run into more instances of women being given clothes by people outside those limits.
