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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Pretty sure a Mason jar would not fit in my cupholders. Large fast food cups don't fit in my cupholders. It's annoying.

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

I do sometimes read amyth's posts and say, "wait, I don't remember saying that or being that awesome!"

And thanks, all.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

all this time? I have been thinking that amyth and amych are the same person. dammit.

Understandable. We do live mere miles from each other, share a (real) name, have very similar board names, and I think we joined around the same time, IIRC, back on WX. Did I ever de-lurk on WX? I can't remember. I thought about it, anyway.

"wait, I don't remember saying that or being that awesome!"

No, YOU.

Besides, I WISH I could fence! Dang.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes if I'm going too fast I'll see a post of flea's and wonder "When did I know all that? And when did I forget it?"

Tres confusant, mes amis. Tres confusant. Also don't fuck with my Franglais.

Amych, I can't even imagine what reserves you need to draw on right now. But I hope they're as well-stocked as they possibly can be.

Oh, amych, that utterly sucks. I am so very sorry.

I'm so sorry amych.

My braindeadness is reaching a point where I feel like I am getting sick. I feel like typing is using all of my energy.

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

I'm so sorry, amych.

Oh, I'm so sorry, amych; they were both too young, and I think your feeling depleted is not ungracious at all. To be expected, really. So sorry.

So only 4 more days.

Hang in there!

Heh, speaking of "F" words Matilda tried to work "It was so frickin' funny" into conversation yesterday.

Heh, heh, heh. How was it addressed? I would have had a hard time not laughing at the not-quite-salty-sailorness of it.

I have drunk out of mason jars, and would, but I don't have any. I just went to Kohl's and bought a second pair of these sort of ridiculous yet kind of cute "velvet" moccasin-type slippers (Vera Wang, dontchaknow. Wedding dress, mass-produced slippers. It's all the same.) because they are on awesome mark-down, and I actually wear slippers now, and you can kind of wear these outside, and I do, and so I wanted a second pair. One to wash, one to wear! I don't think I've ever done that before -- same exact pair.

And now I'm about to put cookie dough in the oven.

Oh, and Hec, I just saw your email from last night. (Just got around to checking it..)

eta: And thanks for your concern. All y'all's.
