My favorite is "Goin' Back to Louisiana," because it pronounces Louisiana the way I do, and yet still with the "New Orleenz."
Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Something I saw go relatively unchallenged in the gawker thread was the idea that if you haven't slept with both genders, you couldn't be bi. Which was weird, because most people seem okay with the idea of straight virgins--so it's incredibly heteronormative.
If ending up with a guy made a bi woman straight, being celibate would make me asexual, surely?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Nope. Not sarcasm. The song's a classic.
I edited to indicate that I couldn't suss out the nuance there, and my brain hasn't been working right for a while, so, figured I'd ask.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Dude. You know what's uncool? When married bartender posts "The doctor is in" to say that he's at work and the bar is open, and random chick comments, "If you're in, I'm going to need a pelvic exam."
No. You are gross.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Left a good job in city/Working for the man down in New Orleans.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
the paperwork for my car has errors. grrrr.
also, reasons people are moving to Texas did not include that they heard I was moving back. Albeit, the piece was really about why people are moving to Austin TX.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Also allowable, Mary Chapin Carpenter's "John Doe No. 24", even though it makes me cry.
Edit: Oh, and "If you go to New Orleans, you oughta go see the Mardi Gras."

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Yeah, I've kissed and made out with girls, and while it is lovely and feels good, I am actively interested only in men.
I can certainly find women hot, and would never rule out sex with a woman, but I seek/want relationships with men. I would id myself as straight, French vanilla, occasionally with jalapenos.
Aims, M. is not diagnosed ADD, but D. is, and I certainly see indicators and he is fine with a DS. He uses it mainly in the car, and puts it away when asked. Turning the Wii or cartoons off is somewhat of a issue, but well within normal kid "Buuuuuut....one more!" zone.

Yeah. Austin /=Dallas/=Houston/=Lubbock. And trust me what you save in taxes, you pay out in extras because of cutbacks in services that those taxes would pay for. Basics, like say, roads.
