sigh ... I've never read any of the Anne books. Just never got to them. I did see some of the Megan Followes version, but just never got to them.

[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.

I'm of the Anita Blake school. It doesn't work if there's no faith behind it. it's not like I'm atheist or agnostic, but I am kind of bullshitting with it.
I have never read Anne of Green Gables. Not that I was avoiding it, just haven't gotten around to it.

Happy Birthday, askye! And a happy anniversary for Shari and her DH, too!
I can't remember which of the Anne of Green Gables books I read, the first 2 or 3 for sure. I remember liking the first few, but tried to get into one of the further down ones and for some reason it just totally turned me off, so I stopped reading them. I doubt I'll go back to reread, there's very few books I do that with.

But instead of a jewelry box, I might go with a fishing tackle box, on the grounds that it's less likely to grow legs and walk off.
I have a mix of jewelry boxes and plastic boxes with partitions, like beaders use (although I bought it at Harbor Freight Tools, so I think it's for nuts and bolts or something), and the plastic boxes are fantastic because they keep everything from becoming a jumble.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Happy Askye day!
Happy Shari anniversary!
Of the non-Anne LMM books, I loved The Blue Castle.
Me, too! Love the protagonist and her desperate rebellion. Wonderful stuff!

Wow, lots of stuff.
Happy special smonster day (I will dig out my Zdob si Zdub CD), and happy double-birthday askye! Happy anniversary, Shari, and FUCK CANCER. Interview ~ma to Hil!
And Sean, hopefully this is just a bunch of karmic paying-it-forward, and life will get much more awesome very soon.
I tried to read Anne of Green Gables, and I did watch the movies. Because a group of embassy people were. My DH loves the books, and Anne/Gilbert is his OTP.
