My mother is the sewer in the family. It's been her one passion for most of her life. French felled seams! Tailoring! Sadly she can't do much anymore. She did, however, think that we could, on occasion, sew our own hems after she pinned them and sew on our own buttons.
Xander, don't speak Latin in front of the books!

[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.

Oh Daisy. So hard, and yet you can tell how well loved he was, just by your descriptions. Thank you for sharing.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Don't forget the 10-foot rule. Sets and costumes live & die by the 10-foot rule.
Yes indeedy do.
Speaking on behalf of Texas, I know not of the rally girl vs cheerleader's rivalry, but definitely the coveting of the Juliana is verifiable.
Daisy Jane, condolences on your loss. May the pain pass quickly as a summer storm, leaving only loving memories in its place.

I'm getting the pig!
"Ask him to come back. He'd do it for you."
I was doing pretty good up until I read this line, then I lost it. He sounds like a wonderful and generous man and the world will be poorer without his presence. I'm glad you had so much time with him and I'm sorry for your loss, Daisy.

I read this wrong. That's all I'll say about that.
Ahem.
Dude. Find me a ticket for around $134 RT and I'm all over it!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
{{{{Daisy}}}} Your grandpa sounds like an awesome man. Thank you for telling us about him.

No, that would have been my dad.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
It appears to be the Texas version of a pom squad/dance team.
Rally girls- at least from what I remember were more like boosters. They don't perform at all, they are just there to bring goodies to the players, be their player's #1 fan basically.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
DJ, I am so sorry for the loss of such a wonderful man.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Sorry to go on and on, but I put a great man in the ground Wednesday, and wanted to tell y'all about it.
Hush. We want to hear about him. He sounds like a man we could use more of in the world.
Again, I'm so sorry.

Huh. You can tell I'm not from Texas either. The gall of different areas of the country having different names for the same thing....
(In my defense, in central PA, most dance teams are known as rally teams. Drill teams were affiliated with the band.)
