That's awesome, Allyson!
Wash: Psychic, though? That sounds like something out of science fiction. Zoe: We live in a space ship, dear. Wash: So?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Go Allyson!!
Overall, you got 98% correct
Bah. I didn't get the highest score. I mean, go Topic!Cindy!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Allyson, that's fantastic!

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
I hate it that no one ever explains things.

Because books.
I rock at the faces test! I only got one wrong on the famous faces, and I got 88% correct on the other one.
Barnes and Noble wants to promote my book on a table. What does that mean?
Allyson, that's wonderful news! It means someone at Barnes & Noble really likes the book and wants to help sell it!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Allyson, that's awesome news! What's the official release date of your book, again?
Jesse - Apr 02, 2007 3:38:11 pm PDT #307 of 10001
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Seriously, Allyson -- think about how many books are in the store. Think about how many are on those front tables. THEN think about how many on the front tables are by people you've never heard of. Someone really likes your book.

"These books over here all have big marketing budgets. But those books on that table are the really good ones."

What's awesome is that you actually *know* this. If someone at B&N actually told your editor, you've got a definite cheerleader, which is truly made of awesome. They don't pick random books to go in the towers or on the tables, you know.
::squees a little bit::
And I just applied for a job at B&N today, so maybe come August I'll be hand-selling it in the Central New York store!
