It happens, I just really was good at repressing it. In the back of the brain. Behind the otters. And away from the marching band. You know, really repressed.
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

That's just mean.
Everyone knows your suits are molded on.
Sorry, that was insensitive of me. Moulded.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
What? That shit doesn't happen to you?
Totally happens. And it's horrible.

Things that are not the same:
black cat on bed
black bra on bed
I just tried to sweep the cat in a generally "clothes that need washing" direction and pet my bra. While color coordination is good, they should not both be on my bed. The cat protested but the bra didn't seem to mind being groped.
Now sleep.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Someone posited the theory that women with short hair were displaying "too much" independence by refusing to spend the extra time and energy that taking care of long hair requires (YTime/EnergyMV) and that it was a sign of pernicious feminism and assault against The Way Things Should Be(TM).
Huh. I think it's much easier to take care of my hair when it's long. (Of course, I tend to interpret "take care of my hair" as "wash, comb, and do whatever necessary to keep it off my face," and with long hair, I can just put it in a ponytail or a braid. Short hair requires headbands or clips or barrettes or something, and takes way more time. Long hair does take much longer to wash and comb out, though, but that's the easy part.)

not your mom's socks.
askye - insent x2.
I had short hair until I could make my own decisions and then my hair was long until after college... then I chopped it all off after getting my SCUBA certification (because I'm a dork... before would have been much wiser). I loved having long hair, but I kept it up mostly with a series of bic pens stuck in a bun. Sometimes a watercolor paintbrush. Not very elegant.
It was hella cheaper than getting styled every 4-6 weeks.
Iris lets me braid hers, and it is getting much longer. She was toddler-sans-hair for years, so this is a huge change. If she ever wants to cut it or dye it pink, though (or whatever, but the reigning color is pink) I'll get her the clippers and/or the color and let her have at it. My mom will be thrilled.
