Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

I have never seen the Vampire Diaries, but I think the talk about it here kind of seeped into me by osmosis. So not fan-fiction, but I think in the spirit of the show. Sung to the tune of "The Lady is a Tramp". And oh yes I did

The Lady is a Vamp

She knows liquid diets are good for her weight,
Eats boors who enter the theater late
Opposes long lives for people she hates.
That's why the lady is a vamp!

She's never worked nor coaxed nor complained.
Her lovers end with bodies and bank accounts drained.
Their deaths leave her completely unpained.
That's why the lady is a vamp!

She loves the fresh night wind in her hair,
Life without care.
She's cold, but its OK.
She hates sunlight, garlic and real silverware.
That's why the lady is a vamp!

She hates thugs armed with long wooden stakes.
Priests with large crosses give her the shakes.
She keeps native earth in all her estates!
That's why the lady is a vamp!

Barb, it would not go against our board culture for you to put a post in press including a link to your preferred means of purchase: (Amazon, your publisher, your favorite website that carries your book.)
