Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

I'm waiting until after the game starts to go to the grocery store. I need ground lamb for a recipe and the store I went to yesterday didn't have any.

Teppy, that outfit rocked!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I went to the supermarket earlier, and it was kind of a clusterfuck, but I walked right into an open checkout lane, so that was good.

Quester, I suggest you sleep with him at least once. If he takes calls then it's OVER.

Not right away, but yes, eventually. There's a whole attic full of synthetic fiber yarn. That we're not getting to for a while. And oh G-d, the tubs and tubs of good-quality yarn. Eeek.

(How difficult is it to learn how to knit? I'm assuming I don't have time for it, but I now have the pattern (and supplies!) for these stockings: [link] )

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.

In other dream news (though not as interesting as Quester's) I bring you dialog between me and spooky dream creature (SPDC):

Me: Why me?

SPDC: Why not you? Who else?

Me: That is a very old joke.

SPDC: Older than you know. And the best two answers to that particular question that ever has or ever will exist.

sj, I know! Aren't they pretty? I love all the patterns from that company, but wow, I bet they are VERY FAR from my skill level with sticks & string.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Those are gorgeous.

And knitting is not hard! But you shouldn't ask me, because I'm still at the only knitting things what are rectangles stage.

We'll see if he asks again.
