tommy, under the circumstances, I'd say you should be more worried about her clicking than you clicking -- because if she's interested in continuing, you'll get a chance to see if your click has time to happen....
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

KCD and I had that click, talked most of that first night away. Ah well. The date I had a couple of weeks ago was click-less for both of us, though we did have a pleasant meal and conversation.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You know, just because it didn't work out absolutely forever, I hope it wasn't all bad. And you have two great kids because of it too.
DxH and I clicked. We can still talk for ages. Can't be married, but it doesn't mean I wish we hadn't clicked at all.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Here's this thing about this NPR version of "Telephone": [link] Is that an NPR producer, or a tall Jonathan Rhys Meyers?

True, Cass, true. I adore my kids and we had a few good years.
Kids and computers - CJ ended up with my old laptop. He is supposed to keep it in the living room or in the guest room/office. I needed to use it today to print something and it wasn't in the usual place. After some searching, I found it under his bed. wtf? I did the work I needed to do and I have tucked it away in my room. He just got home from school and I'm just waiting for him to say something about it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Clicks aren't fair, but I don't know how to work without them. It's that shit that gets me told I'm too picky, but just because I don't hate a guy doesn't mean I should date a guy--and it's only guys that tell me I'm being too picky about it.
And, none of these guys date all their female friends, so they're being a bit two-faced about it.
Can't view youtube from work, but bon, you just made me check up on JRM's height. Damn, but I thought he was at least 6'. Huh.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Stock Selloff May Have Been Triggered by a Trader Error
In one of the most dizzying half-hours in stock market history, the Dow plunged nearly 1,000 points before paring those losses—all apparently due to a trader error.
According to multiple sources, a trader entered a "b" for billion instead of an "m" for million in a trade possibly involving Procter & Gamble, a component in the Dow.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ha! I've been proclaiming for years--decades even--that there's Neanderthal in dem der genes. Nice to have it scientifically confirmed.
