Real Life Tales in La Vie De TKP!

[lettered]

1. So my mom's seen all of BtVS. But we're watching it a second time. And in S5 "Blood Ties", you know that scene where Dawn goes to Ben and tells him she's the Key, then Ben changes into Glory? TKMOM: OMG, Ben is Glory?
TKme: Yeah, Glory is in Ben's body.
TKMom: You mean Ben is in Glory's body?
TKme: Yeah, Glory is Ben.
TKMom: So. Glory and Ben.
TKme: Are the same person.
TKMom: Glory and Ben are the same person?

I KID YOU NOT.

2. So I'm writing smut, slashy porn type smut, with things I don't believe I've typed before and god, did I even know Angel was that raunchy, and all the sudden there's a knock on my door. So I open it up and hear, "Hello. Have you let Jesus Christ into your life today?" All I could think was Angel does feel very close to Jesus right now, yes he does. "Have you had a chance to study the Book of Mormon, the Testament of Jesus Christ?" I'm spending my quality time studying porn, thank you.

I've actually never had missionaries come to my house before, and would've really liked to've chatter with them and perhaps offer them tea, but I was so embarrassed I said no and shut the door. And I think they thought I was laughing at them, which made me really ashamed of myself. Then I went back to studying porn.

3. So (all stories start with so, apparently) I just watched The Gift. I forgot how Spike cries at the end. Then I went downstairs and there was this little rabbit the size of a hamster sitting on the stoop just outside the front door, munching on little green leaf planty things. And it felt very ironic to watch Buffy die and then see this bitty baby bunny live.

4. So Friday my brother calls to ask when my mom is coming to Michigan so he knows when to go up to see her, and my mother says she's going Tuesday, and I'm going with her. I'd been thinking about going again to see my brother and also just because I can, and that jazz, but this was so very sudden. But hey it's free, so I'm there. Since I'm going to be gone longer this time I'm going to be dropping by an internet cafe every couple days just to see what's up, but I'll be less available. But I'll be there if you want to get in contact with me, and I will also fly about randomly commenting. But anyway, toodles!

Bitty bunny, Angel finds Jesus, Glory is Ben is TPK's mum, something about going to a jazz concert and abandoning us!

This is why I love your posts.

Did you ask your Mom if she was very stoned? *Was* she very stoned? Okay, we'll leave that one alone. I'm tellin' you what (I'm torn between the Jackson Browne and country speak today - tell your mom I'm actually very articulate) I've watched a lot of Buffy in my day, but "So we think there might be a connection between Ben and Glory" never stops being funny. (Did you slow-mo that "Ben is Glory" part in Weight of the World where Spike smacks Xander's ass? *nods sagely* If I can impart nothing else, of all these - yes.)

What's so great about Michigan that you're leaving again??? Oh, great, now I'm singing "Whoever's in New England" which has *nothing* to do with Michigan and is all Reba and now my accent's out of control. Lord have mercy.

You know that Stoney sic'd them missionaries on you. One might say she positioned them. Okay, I'm stopping. Nothing's going to beat that Whoopi thing.

I LOVE that you are studying porn. You know, I don't think I've ever read any porn by you. How odd.

And thinking about Spike crying at the end of "The Gift" still makes me wibble.

Stop the presses. Ben is Glory and Glory is Ben? Huh. ::giggles:: Your mom is cracking me up.

Can't wait to see this porny fic you're writing.

It was probably a hare if it was that small. Rabbits are born without fur, with their eyes shut, and drink their mom's milk. Hares on the other hand are born ready to hop around and munch on greens, fur and all.

I once explained to some Mormons that I was a pagan, and they had no idea what a pagan was.

I was going to comment on the actual content of this post, but then you started talking about Connor as a princess and I started imagining him gathering berries in the forest, careful don't get your gown caught in the thorns! and a hunter passes by and sees Connor and stops and stands there with the deerksin things, those pants things, but tighter fuckit I don't read enough Romance Novels and with the beard and with the bow and arrows in the quiver and speaking of, there's quivering when the hunter presses Princess Connor up against a tree and kisses him and you think I'm joking but I am crying with the beauty of it.

Nooooooooo!
You only just got back for goodness sake!

Hee! You make me want to try to make my mom watch. I don't think I'd have such amusing results though.

Have lots of fun in Michigan!

1. cracked me up.

So, is the Angel/Spike part of your 150.000 word epos you told about the other day? I was meaning to comment on this because it sounds yummy, but then charlottelennox came and stole my brain.

Hahahahaha! Did you ask your mom if she was very stoned?

So many replies. Wow, feel the love!

1. That's awesome. So it wasn't hyperbolic writing.
2. I would have done the same thing, although I would have regretted missing the chance to talk with them. I only get courage after people are gone. But I think my husband hung out with some once.
3. OMG the bunny IS Buffy!
4. My brother lives in Michigan now. Say hi for me!

I miss you.

Hi! Hi!

1. heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! That is one of the best conversations ever!! I'm so impressed by how well it mirrors the actual one in the show. I was also just reminiscing about the Spike/Xander scene in "Weight of the World" which Sue refers to above. You know, the one when Spike smacks Xander's ass!! *goes to a happy place*

2. Porn!! Yay! I'm excited about good porn! I write a lot of my fanfic on the subway and often kinda cower over it if I'm writing a smuttier bit (although I rarely actually succeed at writing the porn - I'm good at the lead up to and the after part). I'm now relieved that no one has tried to talk about religion while I'm writing though!!!

3. Many of my stories start with "so" as well!! *g* Awwww The Gift always makes me cry. Poor Spike and the crying. That bitty baby bunny sounds adorable and what a neat thing to see right after watching Buffy die.

4. Michigan again! I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time! I'm pleased to hear you'll be checking in occasionally. *g*

Whoa tuning in late much? Because... LJ ISN'T SHOWING ME ALL OF MY FLIST'S FUCKING ENTRIES and it makes me jabdwaklbeawd - which is surprisingly a verb! *rips hair out and tosses it at lj*
