@ThebookishC You might be hanging out with the wrong people if you don't already give each other books as gifts.

@John_Beckham14 I briefly owned two homes because I bought my new one before my old one sold, and my friend called me a land baroness.

@lizzydarcy Reading it out loud to my son, a chapter a day.

@hell_line0 Fuck yeah!

@Lumiere3000 @ColeBLuvsic @ayeejuju I’m right handed, and this is what works for me. I don’t have to figure anything out, just snap and that’s right.

However, my hands have to be free to snap my fingers, so it’s less useful if I’m carrying something. Or driving and need both hands on the wheel.

@Ravenismeee How the hell is a nightgown supposed to protect me from intruders?

Not that anybody asked, but in the time that has elapsed since the @NYKnicks last won a championship, we’ve discovered eight new Subatomic Particles. J-Psi Meson / Tau Lepton / Bottom Quark / Gluon / W-Z Boson / Top Quark / Tau Neutrino / Higgs Boson

@alisha_hg Days after I finally(!) moved to a walkable town, I was out and wanted stew. So on the way home I stopped at the co-op for veggies, butcher for beef, and liquor store for wine. Somebody will say what? You had to walk to 3 places for a meal?? but it was the best day of my life.

@james_xond I was 39; my husband was 40. This was in 2002.

[PearsonMarlys @PearsonMarlys]

@peegzy1 Yup. And Connect-i-cut.

[PearsonMarlys @PearsonMarlys]

@RobGeorge @GenTXer2 Both great, but I give the edge to The Stranger--which was my first Billy Joel album. Probably one of the first dozen records I ever bought.

@CarlBovisNature Fish walk.

And then on Tuesday, I took a mimeographed quiz on a health class filmstrip (mood ring read stressed), went home to a boil-in-a-bag meal in front of the B&W TV with rabbit ears, waited until 11 to call grandma, set the clock radio, hit my water bed, and dreamed about Andy Gibb.

@mrrgrte @crptw1tch Which book is that?

"I would never be anything but the seventeen-year-old boy you see now, but how could a man so slight as he heft me with such ease? I am not a waif and never have been. I am a strong child"--The Vampire Armand, chapter 3.

[PearsonMarlys @PearsonMarlys]

@caitsimme I saw it when it came out, and the only reaction that sticks with me is “How can Townsend have so little charisma that he can’t even make a vampire—much less The Vampire Lestat—sexy?”

[PearsonMarlys @PearsonMarlys]

@RobGeorge @allrockmusic I approve!

[PearsonMarlys @PearsonMarlys]

@DavidDack I was running in the woods, wearing a billed cap. Looked down to navigate some thick tree roots, and ran smack into a low tree branch that knocked me flat onto my back.

My first response: pause my Garmin. That’s the moment I knew I was really a runner.
