Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Melatonin worked beautifully for me the first time I tried it to help me sleep, and then never again.

ita, could you hop on AIM for a minute?

Yeah, I need to grab some tomorrow. I've had it highly recommended. Weirdly, the woman who did said it might cause strange nightmares.

Well now that would kind of defeat my specific purpose. Hopefully they won't be any stranger than normal, at least.

Our wings are not tired

ND, Will's computer started smoking yesterday. (Goodbye, 2006, I hate you.) Can I assume any local repair store can troubleshoot it?

Yes, they should be able to. Yikes!

Kristen, your tagline is made of awesome. I want to pet it and call it George.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm wondering what makes the marsala so sweet some places. I made some a while back from scratch and it was Not Sweet. A tinge from the wine but really rather faint.

That's interesting. I made my mother taste it to see if that's just what chicken marsala tastes like, and she said yeah. I couldn't remember if I had actually had it before.

I think I don't care enough about this to make it at home.

Hey Kat, I have a query you may or may not be able to answer. What might be a good book for an 11 year old girl? I'd like something a little challenging (having listened to her read lines for her Sleeping Beauty play) and engaging, but not too challenging. I know this is soooo much help. I'm thinking funny and urban for starters. I'd love to hand her Julie of the Wolves or something, but that might be too foreign for starters (I have no gauge, I read terribly innappropriate books at that age.) She's a complete sweetheart, and seems young for her age. She picked out the cutest white stuffed bear for me " and Mister Kitty." Awww.

Thanks! And it's very accurate these days. My coffee intake is probably up by 50% now.

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

I think I don't care enough about this to make it at home.

And with bon setting you such a strong (if biased) example.

I want to make it at home because that chick in the Crusie book did. In fact, it was Jennifer Crusie that set me on this whole thing, but I feel dumb wrangling the noodles in front of company. So weird sharing a moment food.

I had the same experience, Lee.

Now tagless for your comfort.

sarameg, it's not modern but it's an incredible story about an 11 year old girl. Caddie Woodlawn remains one of the most memorable books of my childhood.
