The thing is that the aversion to co-ed sleepovers is also super heteronormative. So, do you forbid all sleepovers? Weirdly, it was one of my at the time gay male friend who was always "up to no good" with the girls at sleepovers! And I had plenty of sleepovers with him and another gay guy where nothing happened (as I was sleeping in the bed with the other guy and he was on the floor, so I think I would have noticed. Also, we were far older than CJ - I as in college).

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My parents let me have a co-ed sleepover the night after my chemistry Regents exam when I was fifteen. And aside from us setting fire to our Regents test prep books on the back patio, playing with a Ouija board (which caused my friend's little sister, who was sleeping over as well because she was only a year younger than us, to hide in the kitchen with a rosary), sneaking out of the house to go to our college-age neighbor's house (and him coming to the door in his underpants! Scandal! He was my piano teacher!) to get his Tarot cards to freak out said little sister more, and then toilet papering his house at 3:00 in the morning for no good reason, we got up to no shenanigans, either alcoholic or sexual. We were good kids, for a relative value of good.
We basically got up to pretty much the same activities we had collectively been getting up to at neighborhood block parties together for years, minus spin the bottle and trying to play Atari while sitting outside and eating hotdogs.
Is ita around?
My grandfathers were Howard (nicknamed Pete, long story) and Charles. Suddenly realized I have no idea what their fathers' names were.
We almost finished our LotR Monopoly game from the hurricane, and I had wine. Sleepy (and quite poverty-stricken) now.
I'm here now, Allyson, if it's not too late.

I get that. CJ and I have talked about sexual orientation a bunch and he is very much on the hetero side of the kinsey scale. He has even asked "are you bummed I'm not gay".
Knowing the kids, they are likely watching movies, singing karaoke, being zombies, or maybe, actually, sleeping.
I was looking for something you wrote about Katie, the character on Terriers, and about her agency. I think it was you. I'm having difficulty finding it. Help?

I love this. It says so much about you. Both of youse.

Would anyone be kind enough to edit my document explaining my plea for Terriers DVDs? The little webpage is ready to go, almost, I just have to load up the text and a few pics (how do I change the stupid header pic?)

Whedonesque has promised to lend a hand by linking to me, and I think a few other people with monster twitter followers will retweet.
I don't really have high expectations, but you know, Profit came out ten years later, so you never know.
I do desperately need this edited. It's 2000 words. All I have to offer is thank you.
When I clicked, all I got was the "hello world post" in wordpress.
