Happy Birthday Juliana!
All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

[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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

"huh, so this is what normal people are like. Damn this is boring."
Yes! I figured that's why there's so much bad television, because most people's minds are silent and they need something to fill it up.
If that's normal, I don't want to go.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I dunno, nobody I know is without an inner monologue. Maybe really stupid people have that quiet, but it seems really rare in my experience.

Compassionately intolerant
In snarkier moments, of which I am not proud, I have severely judged people who answer the question "What are you thinking?" with "Nothing." And mean it.
On the other hand, given the content of my particular dialog, sometimes I'm envious of that response.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
It is very rarely quiet in my head, hence, the ambien CR. if I wake up between 2 and 3 == the voices are loud. and annoying. and stupid.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
wrod. this. But I think if I took anything I'd be in a coma for a week. But then again, this is Phoenix in July...who would notice?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

For me, that "Nothing," tends to mean, "Um, I didn't know there was going to be a quiz about it, and I have already forgotten," or, "Nothing that I'd care to admit to out loud lest I be thought completely wacko," or possibly, "Very unflattering things about you, your mother, and several mentally handicapped donkeys."

"Very unflattering things about you, your mother, and several mentally handicapped donkeys."
I had not considered this highly likely possibility.
The "I didn't know there would be a quiz" is, I think, another quite popular option...especially among my past boyfriends.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ask me what I am thinking and it flies right out of my head to be replaced by something along the lines of "Oh, crap, say something, preferably in English"

When I worked at an agricultural chemicals warehouse, we had walkie-talkies to communicate between the main office and the warehouse. I hated using the things. One time I said some long sentence about filling an order and how I thought we could manage to get it delivered under near-impossible conditions. Then the office manager asked if I could repeat it. And I had to say, "No, because I don't remember what I said."
All the warehouse guys laughed at me for at least a week on that one.
