That looks interesting , Hil . and I wonder if I would be as adventurous as you are. I always claim that one of my biggest 'faults' is that i really get to comfortable with my ruts
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm not sure that Bedford, PA, really counts as "adventurous." It's the home of the National Museum of the American Coverlet. (Seriously. [link] )

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Really? The COVERLET?
I read the Internet. I thought nothing could amaze me.
I was so wrong.

Coverlets are cool, and the punched cards of Jacquard loom were the first step towards computers.

It is the out and about that is adventurous. Like I said - i like my ruts and routines
but a coverlet museum is ... not adventuresome, but it might be cozy

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
A coverlet museum actually sounds like the sort of thing I'd go out of my way to see, but then again, I'm something of a textile geek. Also, the history of that kind of everyday item also tends to intersect a lot with women's history, which makes it even more interesting.
Note time stamp - I am awake far, far earlier than I should be. I'm tired, but the noise in my brain will. not. shut. up. Also, I'm sleepy enough that I can't stop my brain from wandering off into the kind of things I wish it would stay away from--all the fears, hurt, and negative self-talk that it's hard not to listen to.

I know! Somehow, that's the most shocking part of all -- not porn!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I dunno, I bet some porn has been enacted ON a coverlet.

I bet you are correct.
