Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

[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.

“Not dead yet!”

Without the small, everyday thoughtful moments, grand gestures are hollow.

Absolutely. And I'd even add that you get to a point where the small, everyday thoughtful gestures can take on the same weight and meaning as the grand ones.

You don't have to be married to be wise about it, girl. IJS...

It's too quiet in here tonight. I need a little distraction until I can get in my warm, cozy apartment and make cocoa. I forgot to bring a book and being alone with my brain is not good right now.

Hubby and I were just looking at the cute Jilli-in-the-snow pictures, and he's now wondering how tall the Buffistas are in comparison to me. I'm 5'2", and Hubby's curious if any of the female Buffistas are more than 6 inches taller than I.

I don't know why, but I think he's thinking that "Cupcake Goth is cute and looks short. My wife is cute and is short. There could be similar cuteness in the future."

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I'm barely 5' 8", so I don't quite qualify for the "more than 6 inches taller" thing.

I'm 4' 10.5''.

As soon as I posted TCG took me into the house, and now he is cleaning off my car.

Jesse and Vortex and ita are taller than me and I'm 5'10". Or ita might be right around 5'10". Jilli's not that short, really.

I seem to recall from the SF F2F Jilli being fairly close in height to me.

5'4" without a hat. But I think any height I gain from a hat is visually cancelled out by my fluffy skirts.

Snow! Snowpocalypse! yeah, I'm working from home again tomorrow.

Hubby has qualified his question: He's curious as to the height differential between Buffistas and their SOs. He was impressed by the height difference between Jilli and the Husband of Jilli.

That just goes to show you that I am truly, truly awful at guesstimating others' heights.
