165: Travel Is Education and Experience
Yesterday afternoon, I had a nurse demonstrate for me how to take something up the ass. Okay, no. What she was actually demonstrating was how to get your partner to give you a shot in the butt ("Go for the meatiest part!" she said cheerfully. I badly wanted to say, "Have you seen my ass? There's no meat shortage there!"), but she bent over in a

You recced my story!!!! This makes me happier than any rec for any story I ever wrote, ever, for this is the perfect story, and everyone should read it, and just. Yes. My story. Which I share with those who appreciate it, and I knew you would be one of them, because I remember that you have requested this pairing at least once in Yuletide, if not more. *g*
Also, Methos is first introduced to us as "Adam Pierson," but that's just the name he's using at the time; he claims to have no memory over about 5000 years ago (before that, things are a little hazy), and we have no other name for him but Methos.

How could I NOT rec it?
I just had to wait until I could do so without, you know, swooning.

Every year but last Yuletide. (And I left it off the list in 2006 because I had come to the conclusion that I was asking too much - I'd already put my oldest, most dearly loved wish on the list, even though I expected no one would or could write it, and putting a second one that I loved that much on there seemed excessively demanding. (Especially given that two of my other requests were certifiably insane.) And then I got BOTH those wishes anyway. Seriously, nearly died of joy.)

I can see how that would happen. I mean, I can barely remember what I did last week, so...yeah.
Methos is just very interesting, isn't he? Any recs for HL stories about him ( ... )

(But, really, I understand the impulse. After Yuletide, I squeed so much that I'm pretty sure dolphins everywhere gathered in deep undersea conclaves and said to each other, "Somewhere, a fangirl is thrilled. And it's not that I'm not happy for her, but I can't even hear myself think when she's making all that noise.")

There are four at Yuletide! Okay, so they aren't all Butch/Sundance, but they are all for the movie, soooooo...

When I was 16, my ulcers got worse. My (middle-aged, extremely staid) gastroenterologist prescribed some drugs, then said, "And you'll want to watch what you eat, of course." And he gave me some information on diet and asked if I had any questions.
I did. "So, could swallowing semen be a problem?"
It seemed like a relatively innocent question! And such an obvious one! But he turned BRIGHT RED, and then stammered out, "Do you. Uh. Do that? Uh. A lot?"
And I said, "Well, not a lot. Just, like, every other day or so, I guess. A little more than that. Maybe four or five times a week?"
I spent 15 more minutes with him, and he didn't stop blushing (or look at me, or even in my direction - he just stared down at my chart) that entire time. Very awkward. (If you're curious: yes, he did advise me to stop. And I did not say to him, "You've just ruined my plans for the summer." But I was sorely tempted, let me tell you.)

yay you for asking, though. that seems pretty brave to me.

I've never seen The Sting.
There, I've said it!

I will lend you my videotape copy of The Sting.
I will bring it to you.
If you don't object strongly enough, I will even watch it with you (because although my housemates love the movie, they are all guys and that inhibits my squee).

OMG you recced One For The Road!! That is one of my favorite, if not my favorite fanfic I've ever read and it blows me away every time. I really think you should read the deer part, it has one of my favorite metaphors EVER and it hurts so beautifully. It's practically perfect in my mind and I've read it so many times and tried to get people to read it so I'm so happy you recced this.

See, this is why I love fandom. People get it.

I can't. I really, really can't. Animal harm of any kind destroys me. I only managed to get through the story because I had an advance warning to skip that section - otherwise, I'd've had to stop reading there, even though it's brilliant; there's a fantastic SGA story I can't ever go back to because I hit it without an animal harm warning and that was it for me.
It's kind of like the ultimate squick for me, I guess you could say.
