Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

Punishingly Intricate

But there's less of an expectation with the gays to change it, 

Oh, yeah, I can understand that.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I woke up at six this morning, watched a little TV, and then I went back to sleep until eleven! Don't know where that came from.

Then I had a most unpleasant trip Outside, a mistake I don't plan on making again today.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Did a big run this morning, and although the weather was cool and I only had one glass of wine last night, it was hard, argh. So tired. I need protein but we're tailgating at the game in 2 hours so it's pointless to eat breakfast now.

Soon I should start filling creampuffs. I think I have too much filling for the number of puffs, woe. Maybe I'll make another batch tonight to fill for the folks in the office tomorrow.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Don't go Outside! That's where the sun is and it is a VERY HOT SUN today!

I woke up early to work from home for about an hour (in exchange for an extra vacation day this year), and then cleaned the kids' bathroom (ew) and vacuumed all the cobwebs out of the corners of windows, and now I'm wondering if we have anything I could make for lunch.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Really do not want to get out of bed and there's a cat on me. So.

Did not change my name when I got married. I debated the pros and cons but in the end inertia won as it so often does. Has only been in ccasipnally inconvenient. Probably helps that mylasname and DHlastname are both essentially S-squiggle-ff when handwritten.

The plan for kids was, of course, to make them hyphenates and give them long unusual first names as well as Hebrew names and nicknames. As is the custom.

One hour for a whole day is not a bad deal!

I will have to disturb the cat if I want to eat, alas.

I changed my name - combination of getting married really young (so no professional history with my old name) and wanting to trade in a constantly misspelled/mispronounced name for a nice simple easy one.

Reader, they misspell this one too.

Of course they do.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I changed my name when I got married because it seemed like the right thing to do. I went from a short last name that frequently got misspelled to a longer last name that I spell for people frequently.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think I will never at this point get married and also At this point I will never change my name. But I did choose to add the Brooks to my name unkfficially, and may someday get a legal name change because that is just me and I am glad I chose it. When I was younger, I thought it would depend on how good the name sounded!

My BFF ended up changing her name because when she was going through a hard time, her brother bought her a car and put it in her married name. It was easier to change her name than the title to the car!
