It's a life, not teaching material. Treating it otherwise is continual othering, and can be quite rude.
Tell me more good stuff about me.

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.

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

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Well said, ita.

Agreed, Kate. Well said, ita.
ION, for sprog moms, TD bank is doing a summer reading promotion that puts $10 in your child's savings account if the child reads 10 books. Plus they have great, free coin counting. HKF is now a penny-hunting machine, plus happy to double up her reading program swag from both the library and the bank.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I have helped a friend move, gotten a temp library card and checked out two books, and am back home. I did *not* stop by the library book sale, or check out all the cool shops near my friend's new place, yay me. I need to vacuum out my car and do a million other things, but since I didn't sleep well last night, I think a nap may have to come first.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I have briefly abandoned Jilli at her supersecret Goth project to come home and medicate Kittenish and do some straightening around the house (including redoing everything under the kitchen sink now that my garbage disposal has been replaced and everything seems to have dried out.) before it warms up today.

I had breakfast and worked out with my trainer, but feel like a weakling and like I"m not getting any stronger. Argh.
Now trying to decide what to do until dinnertime. Besides go buy more bandaids.
Things I really should do: clean house, it's a pit. Lutherans everywhere.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I went to the rink at 8 for class and did pretty well. I was afraid my big fall on Thursday was going to make me less confident today, but it didn't, so, yay. Then brunch with the DH (bacon,nom) and now helping him pack for next week's motorcycle trip. Tonight, off to see Captain America.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I met friends for lunch, picked up groceries for the week, and am now back in my apartment, hiding from the heat and looking up job postings in cooler locals.

Our wings are not tired
I just left Palma a few hours ago and the ship is now headed back to Barcelona. Kristin gets on board in the morning.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
So if I, as the minority, have to be the one to educate the minority, I will have to do it ad inifinitum.
I meant, educate the majority, of course. Took seeing it quoted more than once before I pinged to my error.
