And then, some choices bite you in the ass.....
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Not to change the subject, but all of a sudden I am so very much looking forward to fall. I have an image in my brain of me walking on a sunny, cool and crisp autumn day, wearing my leather jacket, stepping on golden leaves....
My brain is very attuned to seasons - I discovered this while living in San Francisco.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
the wives held a meeting in the parking lot,
How cute! I wonder if there was queueing at any point...
I'm wondering about double bigamy -- is bigamy something you do to the first wife, therefore double bigamy means you've married two women other than her? Because I'd call it triple bigamy otherwise. Or ... trigamy.
Well, skanky. I'd certainly call it that.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Love is a choice., no doubt in my mind. I chose Matthew. There is all the beginning stuff but the way I feel about him goes way beyond that.Even when I am really angry - it is there. And it is because I chose to let him get that close to me. It is why the concept of an affair boggles my mind. Yes, it would be a betrayal of him. But more importantly, it would be a betrayal of a choice I made along time ago (and everyday).

Now tagless for your comfort.

Autumn tease!!!! *sigh* I can't wait for Fall. I can't stand the heat or the humidity of late Summer and just want the leaves to start falling already.

I may have just gained a sliver of perspective on Kat's point.
All you "love is a choice ... I chose X" people are talking from a position of having had the opportunity to make that choice.
To me, for whom it's never even come up, been on the table, it doesn't look that choicy to me. But I understand the semantics of the expression.

What is even happening?
Love is a choice., no doubt in my mind. I chose Matthew. There is all the beginning stuff but the way I feel about him goes way beyond that.Even when I am really angry - it is there.

But more importantly, it would be a betrayal of a choice I made along time ago (and everyday).Yes, this. I also think physical attraction is largely inexplicable, and has little to do with actual love, except that it opens the door, because a physical attraction can lead you to making the effort to get to know a person.
I know my own physical tastes are inexplicable. I'd still tell you I like typical tall, dark and handsome, yet almost all of my boyfriends (including dh) have been blond or redheads, and usually quite fair, and it's not like I liked them despite their looks. I went for their looks first, and got to like/love the people, after I got to know them.
