Yeah, I think it's always in books, often with the big first letter, or first word in all caps, or whatever, but not so much in normal writing.
Spike: Lots of fuss over one girl. Other things to do around here--important things. Angel: You know that whoosh thing you do when you're suddenly not there anymore? I love that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My powers of observation half suck. I thought that drop caps or all caps went in place of an indentation, not that there wouldn't have been one anyway.
Now I want to edit my style sheet to accomodate that.

I'm a stupid stubborn independent girl. Despite no less than 5 offers of help, I inched my second 60 lb a/c up the stairs tonight. I have yet more bruises. I swear, I will get help installing it. (It's tricksy, because the rest I could go outside and balance. This one has a 20ft drop.)
I will ask for help. I will ask for help. I will ask for help. I will ask for help. I will ask for help. I will ask for help. I will ask for help. I will ask for help. I will ask for help.
Aw, who am I kidding?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My father once dropped an air condition from a seventh-story window that faced the street when he insisted he could install it himself without any help. Miraculously, no one was standing anywhere near the bit of sidewalk that it hit.

I'd be starting the demolition on my deck if I dropped this thing...

Twice now I have actually asked for help moving heavy things. And then been too stubborn and impatient and moved them myself, inch by inch, bruise by bruise. At least today I didn't pull any muscles.
Please not only ask for help with the installation, but then let them help you.

My neighbor has fallen all over himself offering help (this is the guy renovating the place himself.) He has a workshop in his garage he's offered to let me use. I just...suck at asking? And suck at doing the shit myself which leads to crazy. I need to grow up.

do not make me come down there and go next door for you.
I need a shower and then bed.

Lord, that'd be so embarrassing.

that's what I am saying. I basically have no plans for tomorrow and you know I can do the drive in my sleep now.
