On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Butterscotch Stallion? Is that what it sounds like?

I figure it's some cowgirl thing.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I think I am getting this light for over the kitchen sink: [link]

I think I've said before how most of the fixtures are polished brass. I want to eventually move toward chrome in most places.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm not even sure what my point was anymore.

Writing is hard?

I do try to remember that when I see a clumsy bit of exposition. Writing is an art, but it's also a craft and mastering both elements is difficult.

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

Also, you people made me remember the Butterscotch Stallion

Yeah, I'm gonna have to stick with CafeAuLait69 as my new and improved username, I think. Owen has ruined butterscotch for me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Years ago, some friends and I were hysterical over various online dating user names, and I came up with HotT4U2Nite69, which still makes me laugh.

I see you more as a CafeAuLaitKickUrFace.

Or CaféOlé69. That's spicy!

Yeah, totally me.

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

The Extended Bell Curve.

I kind of want it.

Are you spicy? I see you as more of a cucumber dip, cool and creamy with a bit of dill.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

A sexy cucumber dip that can and will kick you in the head.

Butterscotch Stallion? Is that what it sounds like?

It's Owen Wilson, apparently.

Now I want to marry a blonde guy just so I can call him this in bed.
