Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Natter 64: Yes, we still need you

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I've always had good luck with ProFlowers, Dana.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Where are you sending flowers to, Dana? If it's Eastern Washington, my brother might be able to hook you up.

Our wings are not tired.
I don't know who Kristin and NoiseDesign used for flowers they sent to me this year (when I graduated), but they were GORGEOUS. And boyfriend just used FTD to send me date-a-versary flowers and they were gorgeous too but I had to put them together (they came with the vase, and it was fun to put them together, but it might be difficult without a sink nearby is all).

BTW, boyfriend calls it an anniversary but I told him that word is only for married people and that he hasn't "earned" that...

ita, I think if you didn't post here for more than a day or two, and you hadn't mentioned going to the ER, we'd all be pretty worried...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Anniversary is a loaded word, even when it's strictly evenly applicable.
My sister and I had a discussion about engagement rings when we were hanging at LAX last week and she's as unlikely to wear one as I am, or a wedding ring for a man who doesn't wear his own. Sometimes we're very related. But I eat chocolate. That's how you tell us apart. And I wear pink. I guess I'm the girl. With the bullets.
But meara, when does one escalate off the interweb? I kmow my mother will call Allyson and make something happen if she noticed anything. But she onlypays attention every couple weeks.

I caught up! (Yes, it's only a hundred or so posts, but still! D'you know how long it's been since I actually *read* *each* *post*, not just skimmed or skipped entirely? It's a Hanukkah miracle!)
And the conversation was so much fun - I'd totally be a false alibi for Jesse (um, I think Israel has extradite (is that the word I'm looking for?) agreements with the USA, so I won't be able to really make a safe haven from the law, but still), and Noah *and* Grace having a good walk together with their wonderful grownups must have been a great time and yay JenP being home!
date-a-versary
Other than ita's very true answer, date-a-versary is also a really fun word to say!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Hi Nilly! Happy Chanukah!
There was something else I wanted to say. But now I can't remember. I think it's time for bed.
