Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It just came back to me! I would have had a harder time remembering Beth's name. It's because the actor was in so much other stuff, so I was always watching Law & Order (say) and thinking "Rapist Bradley Raines"!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Holy god, how do you people remember this stuff? I barely remembered Beth until Sophia mentioned her.

GL was my first fandom, and Beth and LuJack my first OTP. So, I remember everything about it.

I do remember a later character named Harley, though, and I keep wanting to call her Harley Quinn.

Harley Cooper.

I forgot he was Angel's father/step father. But I did the same thing Jesse did-- every time I saw him, I thought of 'rapist Bradley Raines"

I felt for many years that Beth really did belong to Lujack- I liked hime a lot better than Phillip. I also liked Philip with India, but I am a sucker for a fake marraige story, which I think is what they had.

Because books.

Harley Cooper! I liked her. And Reva. And Beth and LuJack, who I had a ginormous crush on.

Good times.

India was awesome.

I imagine we all started watching when they started doing the teenager summer stories, with Philip and Rick Bauer and them.

It's like you all just started talking in a completely different language.

Also, the board just loaded REALLY slowly and I got scared.

Oh my god, I think I remember that scene.

I used to spend summers drawing the costumes from As the World Turns and Guiding Light. For some reason I was particularly enamored of the way Shannon from ATWT dressed- pretty jewel tones and lots of scarves. So I guess you can say that soap operas lead me to doing costumes...

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I'm afraid I was utterly spoiled by my spring break last week. Now I'm back at work and so sleepy and unfocused. (OK, that's probably due to waking up with the kid at 5:30. I am SO looking forward to the day when she can wake up and just hang out on her own for a while without waking us up.)
