Better an earhook than an asshook, though, dontcha think?
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

[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.

DH's aunt is, to quote Lois Bujold, violently allergic to marriage after first exposure, and so refers to the man she's been living with for the last 25 years as her "partner." They also have not combined their libraries. (And each of them has, I would guess, approximately 5 billion books. With a LOT of overlap.)

Wow. Hubby and I did that within the first month of meeting. We got married a year later.

Lewis and I haven't really combined our libraries but that's mostly because we have wildly divergent tastes.

TCG and I haven't combined our libraries but we borrow liberally from one another. Of course right now there are books everywhere. Oddly enough the house elves did not clean it while we were at the beach.

So, The Boy left this afternoon for an ADD conference out of town, and I came home to find this note on the dining room table: [link]
What a sweetheart.

I just laughed and laughed.

Okay, so one of the changes I experienced upon moving in with The Boy was keeping the TV off unless there was something specific we wanted to watch. When I lived alone, I had the TV on a lot -- not constantly, but in the background when I did stuff.
Because of his type of ADD, he gets totally sucked into TV if it's on, no matter what it is. It could be an infomercial about lint, and he'd be mesmerized. Honestly. I have seen him sit with his dinner plate on his lap and the fork half way to his mouth -- for 5 minutes, and I am not exaggerating. That's how much it sucks him in.
So we keep the TV off most of the time. But! He's out of town, so my having the TV on won't distract him. I'm set to bust out the Buffy DVDs and have a Buffyfest.
I'm specifically in the mood for the high school seasons. So! What episodes should I watch? (I can't guarantee I'll obey, but I figured, who better than my Buffistas to suggest what Buffy episodes to watch.)

Mostly lurking...
Definitely "The Prom."
Aw, hell. That's a tough one actually. I say, start at the beginning and watch all the way through. Sleep for a couple of hours, then keep going. Work? Who needs work?!
