Hi!

I just found your journal by interest searching "Henry Stowecroft" and I saw the subtitle "She might as well live" and now I'm going NUTS trying to figure out where that's from. I have a very distinct voice in my head, saying the phrase, but I can't place it.

I know. This is a really random comment, but what were you referencing with that sentence?

Thaaank you!

P.S. I adore the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler!

It's from the Dorothy Parker poem, Resume:

Razors pain you,
Rivers are damp,
Acids stain you,
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren't lawful,
Nooses give,
Gas smells awful.
You might as well live.

:)

Hi! I've just friended you on the recommendation of moireach - plus, you have the best username ever. Would love to read your entries!

Wow, I feel like a celebrity! I added you, but don't say I didn't warn you: the last couple of entries are about hippos and the weather.

Hey G, please add my new journal to your friends' list? please! :) (this is Nikki, by the way.)

You're added, OF COURSE! I like the cute pink stripes, by the way. (Also, wow, I need another non-friends entry on my LJ other than that dumb meme.)

Nikki is a uniter, not a divider! But if she wants a nice lawyerly present, how about my contracts book. Although I was planning to set it alight and float it in my bathtub, a la a Viking funeral ... I bet all that highlighter is flammable though.

Hey! I just noticed that you have the "Prose before Hos" icon, and I thought I'd let you know that my boyfriend, jackshoegazer made it in his iconomicon community. In case you wanted to credit/steal more icons. :)

Hm, actually I got the image from the original Busted Tees shirt about two years ago and just cut it down to 100x100 in Paint. I've seen it elsewhere on LJ since then and just assumed others had done the same. Nice icon comm!

Funny! Good for you- they say great minds think alike. :) I do love your Holly Golightly icon. May I borrow it?

Of course!
