brenda, what about a "when I was little I wanted to be a..." kind of thing?
Also, Sail and I think alike. I like that.
Mal: Does she understand that? River: She understands. She doesn't comprehend.

At least you could be glad when Mercutio gets killed fairly early on.

The status is NOT quo.
MINE TOO! I believe msbelle has looked quizzically at me when I've gone on and on about it.
Jesse, my sistah! (Not in making msbelle look quizzically at me, though she may have, but definitely in the Atalanta love. I can still hear the recording of her breath panting as she ran.)

And God, St. John is just as sanctimonious as ever, isn't he?
Yeah-up. I hated that section of the book. Wanted to slap him silly.
And the only thing I can really complain about this version is Rochester not seeing his son's eyes. Or Jane's jewelry. There was a really fantastic flashback that just...ummm. It was sexy. Maybe not in the text, but um. Tracing the neckline of Jane's dress. And her face. But mostly the dress part. And um. I'd buy the DVD?
Mom did mostly volunteer stuff while dad was post-doc-ing. Stuff like LWV, women's prison education, nursing, handicap-kid fostering (more like going into group homes for kids who'd been abandoned: Sunshine house in MA.) There was shock that she was doing anything.
And while it seems so strange and novel now, it really does horrify me. I'm glad she had the opportunity to do those things, she really enjoyed them. But that it was considered daring despite it having no paycheck? Is freaky.
I can't imagine it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So far in the Men's final I can say with authority that Federer has prettier hair. No verdict on the rest yet.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

God, yes. That was a great bit.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
And um. I'd buy the DVD?
Uh huh.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

They're only just showing it there? Or did you record it to watch at a sane hour?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Brenda, you've traveled a lot, right? Something in there should work.
