Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

This too shall pass.

Also, y'all have let me down with the not winning the big lotto thing. Life would be less complex on Buffista Island.

I haven't checked my numbers yet. Until I do, it's schroedingers lotto.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I'm sorry to say there was a single Powerball winner with a ticket bought in Michigan. Do we have anyone left in Michigan?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

The people I like on the inside but am not attracted to are my friends!

Ha! Okay maybe I am a bit of an outlier, but I think lots of my friends are attractive both inside and outside. What makes me not *attracted* to them is the knowledge that we'd be utterly incompatible as romantic partners.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm completely baffled as to why I am attracted to certain people and not others.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I have this little problem where I am oddly attracted to "crazy eyes". Like Charles Manson "crazy eyes". I have never actually dated anyone with crazy eyes, though.

I've been attracted to a wide variety of physical sorts. My mother noted one time that all my boyfriends/husbands were communicators. As in non-stop talkers with vast reserves of knowledge on a wide range of subjects. First DH was a talk show host! When she said that I considered all my past relationships and she was right. All were extroverted talkers. Mom noticed what was apparently the key to my heart.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thinking someone is attractive is not the same thing as being attracted to them, tho.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

Thinking someone is attractive is not the same thing as being attracted to them, tho.

Totally. I think a crapton of people are attractive. But I'm attracted to about 2 of them. (Definitely 1, duh, and probably another.)

t edit For me, "attractive" = "there is something(s) about you that I am drawn to," while "attracted to" = "I have pantsfeelings for you."
