Wow!
Does grandma have a hutch on hand for next time? That way, all of her baby bunny saving efforts wouldn't go to waste... I'm imagining your grandma being a Scarlett O'Hara type in terms of braveness and practicality (during the war...you know the chapter where Scarlett kills the Yankee who has come to take all their food and threaten the virtue of their women and is the hero of the household for her quick thinking and steady handedness in a crisis) |

Hostile is an understatement. That was the worst field trip of my LIFE!

It's more of an experience than a love relationship. I do enjoy it when the character descriptions perfectly represent people IRL

No-one in the book matched anyone IRL for me, but I couldn't stand Viven Leigh's movie portrayal of Scarlett O' Hara (couldn't watch it). I much preferred the book version.

I love me some Vivien Leigh. I thought she was perfect.
And then I saw her in A Streetcar Named Desire and realized she wasn't a one-role wonder. Plus, I share her birthday. ![]() |

I received a lewd phone call today. First time in about 10 years.

How does that work? Was it targeted specifically for you?

At first I was thinking it was someone from my chemistry class, because we had to put our names and phone numbers on a list in case people wanted to form study groups, but the number I put on that list was my cellphone, and this call came to the house. So either it was someone who actually knows me (and even the people who know me generally only know my cell phone number) or it was just someone who picked me at random out of the white pages. |
