I'm alittle more emotional than I thought I would be.
Hil, can you check and see if there were any cancealations at the last minute tomorrow?
You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

[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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
And she will come up to you when you're clearly doing something else (say, reading a book) and just start small talk like "so, do you have any pets?". Ugh.
Maybe people who do that just aren't readers and what goes through their minds when they see someone sitting reading is, "Oh, she's reading a book; she must be so bored! I'll help."
Germany/Austria. Those folks give new meaning to the word brusque.
Heh. When I was there, everyone was unfailingly polite to me.
I've been rereading Anne of Green Gables for the zillionth time, and I'm almost at the end, and now I remembered what happens at the end and I don't want to read any more because I know I'll cry.
...what happened at the end?
Glad you're hee, askye, and glad you're happier.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
...what happened at the end?
Dude, you haven't read Anne of Green Gables?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
askye, that's great! How wonderful.
I am skimming through my Peace Corps journal. I forgot how sick I was at first.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
...what happened at the end?
White-fonting century-old book, for no good reason: Matthew dies, and the doctor tells Marilla that, if she stops reading and sewing and crying and doing anything that strains her eyes, then she might not go blind, and the bank collapses and they lose all of their savings. So then Anne, even though she just won a full scholarship to college, decides to stay home and help Marilla and teach at the Avonlea school instead, so that Marilla won't have to sell Green Gables.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Askye, I am so glad you failed. You make our lives better for being part of this group.
Hil, interview-ma.
Our Trader Joe's expanded. More goodies to try, and, along those lines the dark chocolate pretzel bark is very yum!

Long ago, when I was a kid. I remember a few bits of it, but it wasn't a favorite.
Thanks for telling me the ending, Hil. That's supremely depressing. No wonder I didn't remember it.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Dude, you haven't read Anne of Green Gables?
Note to self: Don't admit to Dana that I haven't read Anne of Green Gables either.
