"Jessica is free to leave at any time ... but she always comes back here!" Yeah, of course she does. You hand-feed her all day long, and give her a massage and a warm blankie every night! She's not stupid.
Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, now I'm scared of the internet. I joined LinkedIn, and have mostly contacted grad school friends through it so far. They just suggested I might know my cousin. We don't have the same last name or anything in common, really. How did they know??

May I exploit the hivemind?
I'm looking for something to write for my sister, for her wedding. I'm going to have a personal note, of course, but I'm also looking for quotes.
I'm looking for something that's - for a lack of a better word - not mushy (I'm the sap of the family. I took all the sappiness of the whole five siblings, and pretty much nothing was left for the rest. It's mine, all mine, my own, my precioussss), and also not repeated-a-thousand-times-over-everywhere. Something more about relationships than falling-in-love-s, if that makes sense.
Hivemind? Please?

I don't know if these are really appropriate, but I love Pooh and Piglet:
“Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind. "Pooh," he whispered.
"Yes, Piglet?"
"Nothing," said Piglet, taking Pooh's paw, "I just wanted to be sure of you."”
or
“If you live to be 100, I hope I live to be 100 minus 1 day, so I never have to live without you.”

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!

Jesse, I love the Pooh one! That's exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for.
Oh, and beth, thanks for the intention.
(I wouldn't have answered me either, if I were in the middle of HP7. I was supposed to get my copy today, as a two-months-too-early birthday present, my friend had it reserved and everything, but the store, for some reason, failed to give her the reserved copy, so it'll have to wait. Sigh.)
Also, it seems as though Bob Bob is now Dr. Bob Bob, so congrats on that!
