Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

IKR? But it was a fun read, askye.

Thrive to spite them

yeah you can look like anything! One regular in the London sims is usually a spacecraft of some kind. He's been the Enterprise lately. Another is usually a black cat (four legged kind) or a gecko. He says he gets a lot of attention as a cat.

In the Bingo re enactment picture that's the back of my avatar's head with the mohawk.

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

To get a decent cat avatar you haev to spend RL money.

Is that enough to keep you away from Second Life?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Is it bad that I first read that as cadaver?

That is so lovely, Beverly.

Did you ever read The Snow Goose? I used to read it over and over again when I was a kid.

Thank you!

I went through a Paul Gallico phase and read everything of his I could get my hands on, including The Snow Goose, and The Silent Meow. It still thrills me a little bit to see snow geese, and swans--both birds from fairytales and stories, since I didn't grow up with them.

Yes, I know what you mean, Bev. Definitely fairy tales.
