All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That sounds amazing, Laura!

Our wings are not tired.

A little companionly dog who'll hang out and watch birds with him will be really awesome.

Absolutely! Companionship, exercise, responsibility and routine. Lots of benefits.

I'm 56 years old, and I only figured out how to cook frozen chicken breasts a month ago.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Facing the fact that I'm 30 and I don't know how cook - like, AT ALL? Is not one of them.

YouTube is your friend!

I recommend Jacques Pepin for omelets and eggs:

Punishingly Intricate

I feel like I didn't cook much at all until after I was 30 and, yes, there are so many resources now.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

When I was (mildly) chiding Matilda about her difficulty with casting-on with knitting for some time she said, "You didn't tell me I could look it up on YouTube!"

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

Hand to God certainly filled that prescription, it was hilarious and outrageous (there's a puppet sex scene)

OMG Matt did they do the puppet anal ? Because my word, I was not expecting that. The production I just saw had an excellent cast, the kid with the possessed puppet was great. It was scandalously funny, although I would have appreciated the playwright delving a bit more into the rape element of the adult woman and the teenager relationship.

Laura that sounds awesome!!

So one of my friends has started watching Buffy for the first time. We got her through Season1 and then got sidetracked by watching Lost Girl. So tonight when we were deciding what to watch we were like "oh! Buffy!" And settled in with wine glasses nearby and cuddled on the couch. And lo and behold, Season 2 episode 1 starts, and willow and Xander are being adorable late night in a graveyard, and they're maybe going to kiss, and BAM VAMPIRE--and we all shrieked and I kicked over a wineglass and it shattered all over the floor and we had to pause for about 15 minutes to laugh our asses off and then clean it up. Like (a) somehow we'd forgotten so quickly we were watching a vampire show, and (b) it's not like I've never seen that episode before!! Lol. And I thought of all y'all.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Well, they did the puppet doggie style, it wasn't really clear if it was anal or not. The blowjob was a lot more definite.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

As for life-long learning, one of my dearest friends said that we only stop learning when we die. Then again, she also coined the phrase "fucking growth opportunity!" for these things in life that you really really didn't want to learn or know how to do and that you're dragged through kicking and screaming.
