Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

Because books.

Huh! I have ... no idea, but they smell LOVELY.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

Peony! That's it! I couldn't remember the name. Though camellias are close: [link]

Now tagless for your comfort.

Yeah, Teppy, the blooms are very similar. Peonies are pretty common.

And Cash and Steph win! What, I don't know, but they win!

Peonies attract ants, don't they? On the bush outside, I mean. I always wondered why that was.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

The ants are a part of what helps them bloom, though I disremember exactly what they do.

I hate to even start one of these discussions, but here goes:

How do you pronounce "peony"? I've only ever heard PEE-uh-nee, but I have one friend who insists that it's pee-OH-nee.

Of course, she also pronounces "corset" as cor-SETT, which is just the weirdest damn thing.

PEE-uh-nee

Though I say it with more of an "oh" than an "uh" in the middle.

What brenda said. And I had no idea about the ants.

Also, cor-SET is WRONG.
