I got those weevil pics texted, tho they arrived mid-theatre, so I didn't see them til later. ODDLY around the same time I spotted the FRILLY BALLS (very nice!) on the menu.

RUINING MY BRANES PEOPLE. RUINING.

Re coat like Jack's - Alcatrazz used to sell them, or hmm. There used to be an army surplus place in the In-shops I think (or the place behind Castle Court, the name of which has just totally gone out of my head for some reason. Thingy Market, begins with S. Bah.)

I used to have one very like that. Well, my brother did and I nicked it. Polish airforce I think it was. Best Coat Ever. So very very warm. I think he must have nicked it back and disposed of it, but I loved that coat.

hah, you go the pictures too? (i have no idea what he's telling his dearly beloved about this sudden fascination for weevils! she doesn't use the internet much...)

the GAH is all part of the madness that is ss! there was a big chunk of "blaming women for making hard choices in a patriarchal context" too. see me splutter! i broke own rule: do not have these conversations with her. ever! the best part is that during my spirited rant about institutional cultures, i was knitting. my life is weird sometimes.

OMFG! And I thought you couldn't top the Jayne costume! There will be photos, right? There had better be photos.

Also, more tool usage and home-repairishness (or home adjustment, whatevs). !

Also, women who feel like that at least serve the useful societal purpose of drawing off the men who want women who feel like that, meaning they are more likely to leave the rest of us alone. \o? Not guaranteed, of course, but at least it reduces the numbers a little...

(Still failing on proper commentage, but, ha!! and I love the Paul voice in this - it's got that slow, dry, dignified-but-silly quality - and "So," say Callum. "The Leafs must have been pretty dull, huh?" I can totally see. [oh, typo there, though] Fun!)

if i know anything about hellison's parties there will be drunken photos. which will make me want to CRY. *sniff*

it was a minor repair. my letterbox is not very well-attached to the door at the best of times...

the thing is, she is FINE about lots of stuff and then *boom* - crazy talk! and i don't want to encourage the men who would agree with these notions to breed, or wish them upon anyone, so...

typo fixed, cheers! and, thanks! (i was far too amused myself by the idea of paul being kind of matter-of-fact about the whole thing. all "ah, so THIS is what cocksucking is like. hmm. yeah, ok, i can do this." i'm thinking hugh dared him or something.)

Your rescuer is an evil minion of Dirk Benedict and his macho theories. *spits on him*

Ahem.

Cute weevils! *snort*

could someone please explain to me how R and NC 17 differ? ta!

I think R refers to sexually explicit situation whereas NC-17 applies to fics with explicit penetration.

I want to disagree with that, but, um, I think it's kind of true.

oh, interesting - maybe if that's a real tendency in how ratings are used, that's why - despite reading mountains of explicit fic - i find them confusing? because i mentally categorise 'sex' as 'sex' whether there's penetration or not?

(and sometimes i think there was sex and when i re-read the story it turns out there wasn't. or not really. which i find quite reassuring, i.e. that i'm not that depraved after all.)

After all, Callum is special. Aloof. Fascinating.

Standing in the doorway of the den holding a dripping golf sweater.

i'm not great with words so i can't describe the feeling exactly, but i just wanna say that the first sentence made me go "ooooh! shiny!" and the second made me go "mmm! yummy!"

thank you for sharing the Canadians! ;P
