Gus talk in Natter:
Karl Thiessen - I always admired Gus's way with the womenfolk; it takes talent to leer in text so that it comes across as complimentary and not creepy. I've never mastered it, myself.
DavidS - He was an incorrigible flirt.
Trudy Booth - It certainly was fun incorriging him.
In Boxed Set, and I'm sensing a theme:
Cass:
Step 1: Open the champagne...
Lee:
I am NOT putting my junk in the champagne.
It would hurt, and it's good champagne.
Typo Boy in Beep Me, a sentiment with which I find myself in full agreement:
Announcement: I really like electricity
Analysis: those who enjoy chopping wood may have my share of that particular recreation.
The irrepressible Aimee:
I MADE TWO SLEEVES!!!
I started the Elf dress last night and successfully made two sleeves complete with contrast lining and trim!! Pictures to be here soon.
I MADE SLEEVES!
Of course, I might end up wearing the sleeves pinned to a matching bra and panties, but what the hell? I MADE SLEEVES!
Aimee:
She's potty training. It's slow going, but we don't mind because we don't want to push it and put her off of it completely. Yesterday, Joe was in there, attending to business, but he didn't shut the door completely. Em barged in there, watched him pee, and then proclaimed, "GOOD GIRL, DADDY!"
Water, water everywhere... from Natter:
Jessica: If I'm ever elected to office, I want to be photographed with my right hand on The Joy of Cooking.
Topic!Cindy: If you're not swearing on Alton Brown (himself, not a book), I'm not going to trust a word you say.
Jessica: My left hand will be on Alton Brown, but they may have to blur it for television.
A beautiful pitch, and a perfect hit, in
Great Write:
AmyLiz:
Ugh. I have to write jacket copy again today. The heroine? A Lycanthrope Queen (which apparently means a kind of cat person in this universe) named Siena (unrelated to the other female character in this series named Cinnamon). And she's a virgin. Of course. And she's tawny and gold and cat-featured and ...
I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Astarte:
Here KittySue, here Kittysue.
Ginger, in B'cracy:
These things are hard to phrase. I think English needs an improbable mood as an auxiliary to the subjunctive.
