Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Apparently I'm hard-hearted because I don't see the everpresent threat that no straight man can avoid, that every time he has sex, it can be turned against him and used to ruin his social standing and cost him his job.
I think you should totally offer, ita. It's only fair.

Because books.
Is it being hard-hearted not to?
Absolutely.

I went to the other Target on the DE border, and the only Jason Wu dress they had was not one I loved. Sad.
The red striped sweater dress? My least fave. I found the navy poplin dress with the pink and red stripe at the bottom of the skirt. And it has pockets. LOVE.
JZ, I am askeered of ebay as a seller as I am irresponsible. But I just wrapped the dress and boxed it and I'll take it early tomorrow AM.

So my bookclub at school is going to get t-shirts (we're doing a big literacy event on World Book Night that involves NHS and First Book and local elementary schools) that say, "We like big books and we cannot lie." I'm more excited for those than the "We're not geeky, we're gifted!" NHS shirts.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wow. I have heard less whining from guys I have actually smashed in the nuts. It's been years since I've heard a guy pull the "well, excuse *me* for having a penis!" screaming flounce. He's only flouncing for the night, but " I am not anti-women. Don't ever say that to me again. I try hard, so hard to always keep in mind the problem women can faces, and not to treat them as objects, and never do anything wrong. But I am not a woman. It's not my fault, I have a penis, okay? I am a man, and I cannot change that fact." is pretty golden for an adult.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Sorry to make everyone paranoid, but trust me, if you get this sick, you'll know.

Because books.
Oh, that's the one I like! But I also love the cream cycle print.
Hey, tomorrow's our phone conference! Christ, I almost forgot.

It's not my area of expertise, but wouldn't only having sex with women one knows well enough to be reasonably sure they won't cry rape for no cause protect one pretty well from The Everpresent Threat that No Straight Man Can Avoid? Assuming that one's being careful to not actually rape one's sex partners, of course.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Go Kat, with your bad e-bay self!
I hope this doesn't turn out wrong or badly, but I've pretty much decided that Dita needs another animal in the house before I can be ready for the dog, so I'm starting the process of getting another cat.
