i'm glad we have that in common, nate. the not-going-without-laughing, rather than the bjzthyud. or the xhotbql for that matter. ;) though i must confess i am very partial to blue xhotbql, especially when it comes with some ifynmr. m

i don't know how that happened, but i forgot one of the most wonderful books ever: women who run with wolves. duh. honestly. what did i say about being braindead lately? i guess it was true. m

hah! i did miss this -- silly me. i noticed you forgot to mention for "7 things i say often": nigel. sepp hears you while you're dreaming, you know. teehee. vamp.

and hey, i *adore* the little prince, too. every man, woman and child should it, i think. heh.

oh, and song of my days -- that k.d. lang one you sent (love, love, love it!!) but i only hear that when i play my sims... haven't done that in weeks. the "official" cd player is broken and plays only billy joel now. it's unbelievable.

happy easter!
a.

p.s. did you get my post about not finding your poems in mannequin envy? are they in the current issue (winter 2006)?

hey again, you. thanks for yet another note, even though it includes nigel again! ;)
