Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

There used to be a pair of identical twins who were both in the same graduate program as me. Their names are Natalia and Natasha.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I met some twins the other day named Christian and Crystal. Differentiate, parents!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Their names are Natalia and Natasha.

This is especially sad to me given that the one is a nickname for the other. It's like naming your twins Robert and Bob.

Oh! And I wanted to congratulate Nilly and her Khusband! The news made me smile today when not much else could.

Oh, amych, I'm sure I've mentioned them here before, but I once knew twins named Mary and Maureen, which made my mother roll her eyes forever.

Well, Natalia usually went by Tania.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Perhaps Dana, shrift, and consuela can all join me and tell scary boogeyman tales around a fire.

I got compared to a Holocaust apologist once. And another time I was called sex-negative and homophobic. And I've seen Cassie Claire from a distance. And shrift and I got carded to get into a slash panel at Dragoncon.

I think our giant TV has died. This is not good. Especially since I'm about to be gone for over a week, and god knows what husband might buy when I'm gone.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

We had twins in my high school named Mark and ...Mark. But they went by their middle names. I still wonder WTF on that one.
