Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Spike's Bitches 40: Buckle Up, Kids! Daddy's Puttin' the Hammer Down.  

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

I love pickles. Dill pickles, gerkins, german pickles, butter pickles. Love pickles, just don't eat a lot of them.

ION, I want to cut a bitch. I gave a coworker a perfectly fine document and I got back hash, broken links and master page overrides. ::headdesk::

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Favourite pickles: Branston Pickle. Oh yes.

I was most startled when I first saw a picture of a North American robin. They are big strapping things.

Kristin - sending thoughts and vibes Byron-wards. Be hugged.

In mememe news, I have successfully ordered new contact lenses in turquoise and in amethyst! Huzzah! Also, our first night (of the 2 nights of The Fringe) went very well. I need to stop fancying This Bloke. However, it is okay that I flirt with other blokes. So that's good. Also, I have driunk I think my first alcohol in 3 months. Or well nigh. God, wish I didn't have school in the mronyng.

Would Edward Gorey be considered a children's book illustrator?

Not primarily, but some of his books could be classified as for children.

Yahoo! Answers has him listed under "Children's Illustrators". I was hoping to use him for my illustrator project for class, but wasn't sure if he really "counted" as such.

This is from Wikipedia:

In later years he illustrated many children's books by John Bellairs, as well as books in several series begun by Bellairs and continued by other authors after his death.
