Burrell, I watch a LOT of action movies; my brain goes there, also, having been almost raped once, I do think a lot of personal safety and how I would react and what my skills, strengths and weaknesses are. Also, D is a very slight, mild-mannered man, and I am built like an, um, brick shithouse, so I've thought about it.
Just an explanation for my worldview, not a you-offended-me statement or anything.
Also: ita !'s 2nd link -- the first photo made me literally gasp in shock so hard I choked on my iced tea. But the second pic is SUCH a good outcome. Damn.
For me it comes down to me not having much of a fight or fuck dichotomy--we just want the best possible excuses.
That makes sense, Erin. I was just musing on what you said and realized I tend to not think about DH's more aggressive side even though he does have one. As do I.
I can't work out how much I'm supposed to be getting out of her.
Not the mild aggravation she seems to put you through. I mean, she doesn't seem bad, but she doesn't seem like a good fit for you.
I need to go to bed, speaking of sleep. I haven't had a full night's sleep all week.

HA! I love you, ita !!
Argh. After being sick for weeks and sleeping 16 hours a day, I finally feel better and need to get up for work in the morning, and lo and behold, I can't fall asleep!! Sigh.
Have some utterly bizarre light fare for your 11/11/11 morning. [link]
Aarrgh (what's the spelling of that word? I mean does it need at least two ars, but what's the stance on as (wow, I hate putting in the apostrophe in those scenarios, but that homophone is seriously unclear. Still, I'd rather swype this parenthetical than put one in. Don't hate the playa, hate the game)?
Wait, what was I annoyed about? Right, bills. Century City Hospital says I owe them $2k. They don't even exist anymore. And the charges (five visits? Seriously?) are way out of proportion for my usual out of pocket at the ER at that time. Or ever. Which means research, with companies that haven't had me on their books for four years. I am agog.
If the hospital couldn't be arsed to try and get the money from me, why are the creditors so hot for it?
Oh. Right.
Urgent ER visit underway. I'm not leaving until this nausea breaks. Haven't eaten today either. Maybe I should get them to give me juice. That's more useful than icewater.
Man, I'm bored.
eta: aurelia, your link goes to a Chinese woman covering Lady Gaga.
Got through the night without a riot. I think everyone here is kind of exhausted at this point. But there will be a hundred thousand new people coming in for the game tomorrow, so who knows what'll happen then.
I'm eating a tuna sandwich! Half of one, to be honest. And slowly. But this is as much solid calories as I've managed all week total.
Yay food! May the sustenance help all things.
Are you staying in town over the weekend, Hil? Stock up on stuff so you don't have to go out. I hope the students have calmed down, but the game will likely stir stuff up again.
