And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

and, now that I know Glee is in Comedy (why did I not think of that?), you will probably find me there, too.

D'oh! Thanks for the tip, Sail.

Welcome Ice!

Our wings are not tired.

Hi, Ice!

Because books.

I'm having a really hard time not singing, "Ice, ice, baby," under my breath. Just FYI.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Oh, so it's not just me.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I already sang it. And I did the dance in my office.

The longer I stay awake tonight, the more time I have before tomorrow begins.

Guess writing a proper intro would be polite. Also: more fun than cleaning my house.

My real name is Cindy. You already had one of those when I registered, so I used my dog's name because I was feeling uninspired and she was in my line of sight. The other choices were "Pile o' Papers" or "Things I Do Not Want to Do Today."

I'm 43, a stay at home mom in Northern Virginia who may one day get back to a writing and editing career. Job hunting sucks. Serial commas rock. I have no plans to try muffeletta (dislike olives).

I have never supported you in e-mail. I have supported some of you in bookstores. You return the favor by tempting me with mentions of even more cool books and TV shows. Unfortunately my DVR is 71 percent full and rising and my to-read pile overflows two large bookcases. Sometimes I decide to unsubscribe so you don't tempt me any more. The decision lasts as long as it takes to click "Read New" one last time.

My original intention when I registered was to get involved in the conversation, and I have actually delurked for a random post or two before. It never sticks due to shyness, doubts about what I'd add to the conversation, and the conviction that I really don't need another time-consuming habit given my long to-do list, short attention span, and tendency to get distracte-

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Hi Ice!

Nice to meet you, Ice!

“Not dead yet!”

Hiya Ice

(And now has to fight urge to wander off muttering "Ice, ice, baby." Thanks Amy.)

Huzzah!

I have no plans to try muffeletta (dislike olives).

Weirdo.

I have never supported you in e-mail.

Punk.

I have supported some of you in bookstores.

Huzzah!

Damn straight.

doubts about what I'd add to the conversation

Come on, Ice. You seem cool.

(Ba dum, bum.)
