Just think of it as having an uncanny knack for x-post timing - anyway, it's perfectly readable as-is, so I wouldn't sweat it.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
And then Almonzo went and got the damn wheat?!?!?!
Dang, Daniel!

Our wings are not tired.
I gratefully accepted a "brooming off" of my snow-caked ice skates, and took them off.
Hee. I remember being broomed off before being allowed inside. Snow and ice were lovely when I was a kid, but I was over it by late teens. At this point I don't mind visiting it once in a while.
Although in a different part of the country your winter experience sounds much like mine was, Daniel.

The status is NOT quo.
Will have to backread Daniel's post--am at the moment completely enthralled by my new PotC LIFE game! It's SO COOL. Screw Halo, we're all going to play this today!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

When it's 30 below (or colder) out, one does not spend more time outside than one has to. One especially does not go on a frozen surface outside and try to pick up speed. One will generally have to be treated for frostbite if one does do that.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Plus being able to glide around is so damn wonderful.
Man, I LOVE the feeling of skating fast. It feels like flying.
DH doesn't share my love of rolling skating, however. It could be that the first time I took him he was slightly drunk, had to hold the rail for dear life (along witha few seven-year olds at the rink) and threw up in the parking lot afterwards (OK, he may have been A LOT drunk).
This conversation has me stoked. If it weren't for my damned bad back, I'd go skating right now.

Oh, I know this, it's just that my childhood memory banks are stocked with "do you think it's ever going to snow??"

Thrive to spite them
Am I the only one who read about the Goth roller skating and heard:
GOTHS ON SKAAAAAAATES a la Pigs in space?

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

Plus the colder it is, the more friction there is between the skates and the ice.

Heh. Yeah - I never quite had that problem. More like "do you think the snow's ever going to melt??" Though, apparently, they are severely lacking snow for the third year in a row.
