2 May 2004From the Department of No SurprisesWhy there will never be a romance novel written about me. Posted at 10:34 AM to Table for OneTrackBack: 12:17 AM, 3 May 2004 » Romance wins the day from cut on the bias When I was a child, my sister and I shared a room and a double bed. Any time she was......[read more] Wow. And here I was thinking all this time that romance readers preferred their heroes to be: 1. Weak Silly me! (Yes -- I am filing this Important Knowledge Gleaned From a Blog in the Duh! file.) Posted by: Andrea Harris at 12:16 PM on 2 May 2004Oops. It has just occurred to me that you might think I am replying to your estimation of yourself, not to Ms. Fake's post. Cast that thought -- if you had it -- far from your mind! And quit putting yourself down! Posted by: Andrea Harris at 12:18 PM on 2 May 2004What, you think I'm stupid or something? :) Posted by: CGHill at 1:32 PM on 2 May 2004Andrea--I've been telling him that for at least four years. The "quit putting yourself down" part -- not that he's stupid. Posted by: Vickie at 3:55 PM on 2 May 2004By "four," she means "five or six." Posted by: CGHill at 6:26 PM on 2 May 2004Damn. I think it is closer to six years, isn't it. *That* is scary. Posted by: Vickie at 6:53 PM on 2 May 2004And don't say something predictable like "knowing me for ANY amount of time is scary". You know I meant the passing of time. Posted by: Vickie at 6:54 PM on 2 May 2004Charles, you do it for the attention, don't you? ;-) Posted by: McGehee at 10:50 PM on 2 May 2004Obviously it works. Posted by: Vickie at 5:17 AM on 3 May 2004What's amusing about this, of course, is that the existence of the assertion is challenged far more fiercely than its veracity. Well, that and the fact that an eleven-word post has thus far garnered ten comments. Ahhh, what the hell. I always believe in balance. Posted by: Vickie at 5:25 PM on 3 May 2004Chuckles is a smart guy, just slow on the uptake.. Took him HOW LONG to move out of southside? (yeah, what they said, quit picking on yourself, ya mug) [The dividing line between north and south is, and has been, Sheridan Avenue; I haven't lived south of Sheridan since 1993. cgh] Terkish Payne, and you still owe us dinner, A-Hole. hee hee! I guess if you're south of I-40 and north of Sheridan, then you might believe that north-south-line-is-at-sheridan BS. Those of us not on southside pretty much score the sand around I-40. Join us. You're one of us for sure now. Buy Corn Nuts and go visit your old neighborhood. Terkish Payne, I think it's a law or something. Posted by: Terkish Payne at 7:54 AM on 5 May 2004I-40 turns southeastward after the I-35 North exit; at the 7400 block east, I-40 is just south of, and not quite parallel to, Southeast 29th Street. Where I lived was more than three miles north of I-40. Nice try, though. (I believe we have achieved Terminal Thread Drift.) Well, wherever you were, you're in denial now. Terkish Payne, until it scrolls off, it's Open. :) Well, lets just make it square, hmm? Posted by: Aniwarp at 6:11 PM on 7 May 2004 |
