Your father's annual Christmas phase of his sociological experiment?
Yep! He loves wandering about 10 feet behind me and watching people's faces when we go to a mall.
Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

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.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Jilli, I saw a book title that made me think of you - "The Hedgewitch Queen" by Lilith Saintcrow. Don't know quite what it's about, but I liked the title.

Compassionately intolerant
An old friend, who is just now retiring as a midwife, made a donation in all our names to a healthy birthing charity. I _love_ it. Gave me a nice warm feeling with no need to regift or dust.
On another note, I spoke out on Sparky's DH's project, announced in Press. Bless him for carrying on the good fight.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I just read that book! It's pretty good.
Jilli dresses MUCH better, though.

Oooh, that is a great title.

Aww, thank you!
So, b&w striped, ruffled skirt w/ petticoats, black tights, black granny boots with pink ribbons, white blouse, black double-breasted blazer, top hat w/ pink & black feathers, dark wine lipstick: it's too much to hope that people won't assume I'm a Christmas caroler, isn't it?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Erin, yes you can read and watch electronically except when they are prepping for takeoff / getting up to the first bit and landing. If you really need the distraction, it's less than one magazines worth of time for both. I usually get a round trip out of each magazine unless I get too interested and read that for the first flight instead.
Last time I flew home (1 hr 52 min flying time), I watched 1:46 minutes of Ocean's Eleven because I needed the soothing while I also read. And that was with my shutting down when they first mentioned we were getting close, not the last moment. Really, I could have grabbed maybe five more minutes but I had a migraine and I just wanted to have the day be over.
I am rambling today.

It's near Christmas and you are wearing a top hat. Yes.

... dammit. You're right. But I'm not giving up my top hat. For one thing, I'm short, and it's the only way people can find me when I'm out shopping.

Thanks, Cass. I'll take one book.
