I would wear leeches calmly, in a medical environment. Actually, I recall a pond environment in which I was quite calm regarding teh leeches. My mother, NSM.
You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

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

Doesn't that get messy?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Are billytea and I the only two people on the planet who don't wish they'd eloped?
I'm another one. I really enjoyed mine. Completely laid back. Just the tiniest bit of stress when I saw the front yard (It wasn't a wreck, but I couldn't imagine how a wedding was going to work out. there). Rehersal was a snap even wihtout the dude who was marrying us being there. We forgot the candle thingie we were supposed to light, Jon memorized his vows (which we wrote the day before) and I had to pull a tiny piece of paper from my cleavage to read mine. We even had to reenact the vow part for some friends who were late. Everybody had a good time. The happy family [link]

People keep talking about the apocalypse coming, maybe you are the first of the horsemen.
You would not be the first person to suggest this. If I'm meant to be one of the horsemen, then god damn it, I want a guy following me around making clop-clops with coconuts. And a sword. Watery tart optional.

My best friend had to take care of the medical leeches for a few weeks as part of her med school training. She grew to be pretty fond of them, as I recall.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Daisy, what a lovely picture. You do look like you're all having a great time. You are especially glowy.

eta: Tommyrot, the answer to your question is: fewer tears and recriminations for a cat wedding, more deep scratches.

lisah, did she name them?
My brother names his lab mice. He even lets his son play with them. I don't think I could do that, given he ultimately harvests their brains.

So they're going to add their own commentary to it? Like, "We think he did it"?
Maybe they will re-title it "How he did it".
I'm glad I didn't elope. Can't believe it was 10 years ago.

I can't remember! I wouldn't be surprised though.
