That's so great, Tom! And what everyone else said - I'm sure it's all good.
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
What they all said. I'm'a bet that what felt like fight or flight looked on the outside like awkwardness and fluster, and first dates are pretty much about all parties getting over that bit so you can relax more the next time.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I know my day would be going faster if I could just focus and get some work done, but I absolutely cannot do that. (I can't stop saying "absolutely," either, if this weekend is any indication.)

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I am to understand that among the general male public, the knowledge of how to come to the end of a first date (especially one that didn't suck) is sorely lacking. I don't think I've witnessed a literal fight-or-flight response, but an extended-dither response is pretty common.
I don't particularly think he did anything illegal until there was actually lewd behavior or money changing hands.
I think that asking a cop to actually have sex with a senator (I mean one he's not actually dating or married to) is kind of... I don't think they pay cops enough for that. Men get arrested all the time trying to pick up prostitutes (who are actually cops); giving a woman in hootchie shorts and a halter top a ride in your car isn't illegal either.
(I begin to think that if I were an undercover vice cop, I'd be totally addicted to romance novels, as an antidote to the unromantic environments they live in. Like porn stars wearing flannel jammies around the house, you know?)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I forgot to bring my lunch in. What should I go buy instead?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
