'Bring On The Night'


We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good  

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Damn, I loved Trixie Belden. I wonder whatever happened to all the ones I had. I know I'll have to pick up the reissues, at least at the library, for nostalgia's sake.

I learned what a "chaffeuer" was from TB. Also hollyhocks and that "chic" is pronounced kinda like "shieik."

Oh, and how to suck the poison out of a snake bite, and how to get blueberry pie stains out of Mart's white shirt.

Thank, Trixie!

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I learned what "ennui" meant. And spent a few months trying to remember to say "Rabbit, rabbit" before I went to bed and when I woke up on the last day of each month.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

And spent a few months trying to remember to say "Rabbit, rabbit" before I went to bed and when I woke up on the last day of each month.

Me too! Although I never remembered, just like Trixie.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

And that Scottish accents are sexy.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

And that ID bracelets with a guys name on them were romantic.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

And that Scottish accents are sexy.

You couldn't figure that out on your own, you had to learn it from a book?

I was nine, not hopscotching around the world meeting fake Scottish con men, missy.

And the lady lawyer put the Scottish smackdown on JZ!

Hey, there, little miss sassymouth, I was nine too! I was just nine and sick a lot and spending my sick days curled up in front of the TV listening to the dreamy fake Scottish guy on my mom's favorite soap.

Then I turned ten and threw over the TV Scot for Mr Rochester in this edition of Jane Eyre.
