I have two. Explain "being your favorite" and "driving on e."

ah, two i'm apparently alone in. they're deceptively self-explanitory:)

i'm a big fan of being people's favorite--especially being my favorites' favorite. but also just in general.

and driving on e... i always put off filling my car up with gas, so (as my friends will testify) i'm usually on e before i fill my car up. in fact, i ran out of gas in the middle of town once--at a stoplight--because i wanted to see how low i could get before my gas light turned on. turned out the gas light was burnt out.

Wow, was my mind in the gutter. I thought that e stood for the drug. Then I thought, "Helenmelon doesn't seem like the type who does ecstacy!!!" So I was thrown into utter confusion!

Small Town Ecstasy xfinnpetersx March 15 2004, 12:20:19 UTC
i at one point looked at that and thought/hoped it meant driving on ecstasy. then i "went back" later and looked at it and realized it meant driving on empty.

first impression is always better,

Tell me about the nerds and the geeks and the asian horror movies.

nerds and geeks... hm. well, i've never been able to decide which sounds more bookish to me, but i've always thought whichever one that is, i am. as are a lot of people i enjoy talking to. maybe nerd, eh? the kid who would bet money that she could read more during the school reading program than anyone else--and win by a long shot, or who was one of only two girls in her grade not to do drill team in sixth grade, or who would hide out in the girls' room with her friend writing a screenplay instead of going out for recess ( ... )

i know that i can find a frii-iiii-iiiii-end down at the roundhouse. huh!

yeah:) actually, it probably wouldn't have occurred to me to add it on my own, but a few months back i started a (stupid) community about nick in the 80s, and when i was writing up the interest list, trying to name as many shows from then as i could, i was looking at other people's lists and saw that:) i used to have "are you afraid of the dark" too, but it's too long unless you type it all weird, so i finally took it off.

but i have fond, fond memories:) i also have a poster someone gave me once out of a cereal box. i wish they'd sell that show on dvd. or that i'd thought to tape it back when it was first on. i used to still have one of the songs that crystal (the first main girl) sang memorized... but it's gone now.
