They were at the bar, totally called it. They couldn't find the trailhead. "Snow covered" they said. Heh. Anyway, they're home now and we're eating the SO's homemade salsa, and our buddy is cooking dinner later. So I don't have too much to complain about.
Angel: Just admit it: you think you're gonna ride in, save the day, and sweep Buffy off her--Spike: Like you're not thinking the same thing. Angel: I'm already seeing somebody. Spike: What, dog girl?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I would take the threesomes only because I don't like heights.
OMG, SNORT. Love you, Sue.
Connie, I worry about that all the time: my computer searches run the gamut from weapons to tactics to bomb-making, to terrorist cells, to spying and hacking techniques, martial arts, how to kill someone with various household items, and how to run cons. Among other sketchy research.
Also, a lot of shoes and make-up, and a shitton of geekery.
I guess I'm convicted as a well-shod, nicely made-up, bibliophilic criminal?
I did NOT get Starbucks before my phone call; I drank that shit black, like medicine. Bleargh. Going to store in a few minutes.
I've only had girl/girl/boy threesomes, and I was always more interested in the boy. Liked the girl, but my Kinsey skews to the dudes. There are some boy/boy/girl threesomes I'd give a whirl, though. It's low on my list of things to do, though; I prefer to concentrate on one lover.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Or Mata Hari.
I've never had a threesome... could be fun with the right folks, but I think I'd choose flying.

The ridiculous thing about those searches is I spend twenty or thirty minutes researching facts for ... one sentence. ::facepalm::

Know that we readers appreciate it. When an author gets a detail wrong, it can throw me right out of the story and then I'm suspicious for the rest of the book

Oh, lord, yes. An hour later I look up from some site on Renaissance history and I say to myself, "I only wanted to know when Leonardo finished The Last Supper."

Perfectly acceptable. I have spent quality time looking things up for a throwaway joke. Sometimes the lion's share of the research I do doesn't even make it into the story, but it informs the plot and characterization.

Post-its have a new purpose: blinder so I can briefly read.
I know I'm not supposed to swim today. But I feel guilty anyway.
Also? I really hate the texture of my ceiling.

HOLY CRAP FOOTBALL.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I don't really watch football, but whoah.
