Yeah, it's not like the Transporter movies where it would be madness to watch Transporter 2 before the first Transporter.
And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

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.

The status is NOT quo.
Holy crap. Just found out that our landlady (who has become a good friend) is adjusting her will so that if anything happens to her, this two-house property becomes ours. Granted, she's young and healthy and the house is 100% mortgaged at the moment, but still. HOLY CRAP. Hallmark doesn't have a "Thanks for giving us the house in the event of your untimely demise" card, but I kind of feel like I need one.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Wow, that's very cool, Pix.

There's probably a Someecard for it.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Pix, that's amazing. There you go, independent verification of how awesome you and ND are.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Oh, Pix, that's lovely.

Or you could make your own.

Ironically, I doubt we could afford the mortgage (she bought at he height of the market, and I know we pay less in rent than she pays in mortgage), and we wouldn't be able to sell in this market, so that is one of many reasons why I hope it becomes a sweet gesture and nothing more. Still, such an incredible concept.

Compassionately intolerant
I feel the same way about the friend and her ex who made me guardian of their son should anything happen to them. I was appropriately humbled and then gulped a big gulp. Thankfully, he's nearly 21 and it is no longer an issue but, yeah. Big deal.
Oh, and I totally agree that this is s testament to your supreme awesomeness.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Is it pointless to watch Torchwood on DVD if I've never seen Dr. Who?
I don't think so. Mmmm, Jack.
That is a lovely gesture, Pix.

They asked first and talked about it, right? Because that is a huge thing. And huge things (even Pix's lovely gesture) that are the transfer of responsibility should be questions before they are put into legal documents, I think.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Also, I'm no miss manners. But I was brought up to think it rude to thank living people for putting you in their will. Probably a denial thing and not contemporary etiquette. I mean wedding registers also go strongly against stuff I was taught, but they are the custom and thus good manners today.
