Hi, Raq! May your travel plans travel well.
Sean, lots of hugs and other warm thoughts for you and for all your family.
Teppy, I am relieved that your brain has not imploded yet.
Simon: Captain... why did you come back for us? Mal: You're on my crew. Simon: Yeah, but you don't even like me. Why'd you come back? Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?

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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Sean, I'm so sorry. It's never easy to lose someone you love.
So, I'm back to work. Yesterday was meetings all day, but today is the first day with the students. So far, so good. Except that all the 7th graders in my 1st period class are so scared of drama they all want out. (None of the 8th graders want out. They either took my class last year or they heard about it from their friends and want to be here. Yay!) If they would just stick it out for a week, they'd learn it's not that scary. It's just the fear of the unknown that is getting them.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
If they would just stick it out for a week, they'd learn it's not that scary.
Make a deal with them.
"Stick with me for a week and I'll give you M&Ms.
Two weeks, and we'll talk about s'mores.
Three weeks, and you owe me a Dove bar."

But isn't it an elective?
Sean, I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother. I hope you can talk to your dad.

Warn me if Belinda is coming to dinner, cause NO. I'll send CJ without me.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Suzi, I don't thinks she is coming to dinner, but she may be coming to lunch. I'll let you know.

I didn't know "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?" was a horror film.

TCG actually expressed interest and laughed at my full body shudder when Belinda became the topic of conversation. A whole world of NO.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Aims - it might be interesting to ponder - why are "gender neutral" clothes boy clothes? Why is that the default?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

My dad's coworker just had twins, a boy and a girl, and I was helping my mother buy a baby present. She wanted to get matching outfits. It took us forever to find one outfit that would "work" for a boy or a girl -- everything in the store was either "Daddy's Little Princess" and pink ruffles, or "Mommy's Little Slugger" and sports uniforms. After a long while, we found some turquoise and orange plaid overalls with an octopus on the front, which we agreed were actually gender neutral.
