Man, you just get darker and darker, and the weird thing is, your aura? Beige.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Ah. Well, someone in your old house got a postcard from India.

Our wings are not tired.

Charlie still lives there, so I he'll give it to me. :)

I bought a whole bunch of Paris postcards and never sent them. I am a loser times eleventy.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Java, I bet people would still be happy to get them. I know I would. Pretty pictures! From a whole other country!

Really? Okay! Maybe I can send them instead of Christmas cards.

Compassionately intolerant

That's a great idea1

I almost always send my postcards after the fact...they are less 'wish you were here' and more 'here are the highlights.'

Nobody got ours until the day we got back. I think a couple of people may not have even gotten theirs until today.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Smonster, I just met someone tonight at the gay Hannukah party who moved here from Carrboro, and was shocked she didn't know you. :)

Name? I know more dykes than know me.

I, uh, really don't like Love, Actually. That's as mildly as I can put it. I do love S1 Chrismukkah, White Christmas and Holiday Inn. That episode of Bones was great. We tend to read more books than watch tv - I could name 10 books off the top of my head that I love. We can never make it through all we have. Mole Family Christmas, Christmas Day Kitten, Child's Christmas in Wales, Cajun Night Before Christmas, Polar Express...

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I have to track down a copy of A Child's Christmas in Wales for my very own.

Showtime did a cheesy children's holiday special many years ago with Patty Lupone that I loved, called the Songspinner. It was filmed in--Norway? Finland? Anyway, what impressed me deeply was an opening shot of the sea, with floating ice chunks and positively gelid with slushy ice.

DJ, I don't think I said, but your tales of your India trip were fantastic. I'd love to have you ramble on more about it, if there's more to share.

My mom gave us all copies of the version illustrated by Trina Schart Hyman. Love it.

I'd love to find the PBS film version, too. I've only seen a part of it once, but what I remember was lovely. I can be satisfied with the text version, though.
