Banned books week: What's your favorite...
Judging from this list, mine is either The Great Gatsby or Gone With The Wind. But there are so many great choices! Dear world, don’t ban books.
See also: banned poetry. (I love all of these, and I love that scandalous description of Baudelaire!)

It's not quite an impulsive purchase if I've been...
I ordered my Halloween costume! It’s the first time I’ve actually bought a Halloween costume rather than making one or reusing other outfits since…. second grade when I wore a store-bought Bride of Dracula costume? And of course, the year before that was the pink Power Rangers costume.
I’m really excited about this one though. :)

Obsessions
Good afternoon, and thank you for joining us for this week’s discussion of Allison’s mental issues.
I am obsessive. I fixate on things. Particular films/actors, hobbies, certain foods or beverages, clothing/style choices (buying a ton of cardigans), looking at certain things on the Internet (kittens), certain people (boys). I get one or two of these obsessions into my head and I...

(from my Formspring at chopdawg.formspring.com; copied here because I enjoy my answer)
I want someone to spend my life with. Someone to be my partner. Someone to keep me company and with whom I can make important decisions and face challenges and from whom I can seek comfort, support, and encouragement. Someone to talk to; someone to rely on for big things and little things. Someone I can...

[CINDERELLA] Oh, the Prince… [BAKER’S WIFE] Yes, the Prince. [CINDERELLA] He has charm for a Prince, I guess… [BAKER’S WIFE] guess? [CINDERELLA] I don’t meet a wide range. [BAKER’S WIFE] Did he bow? Was he cold and polite? [CINDERELLA] And it’s all very strange. [BAKER’S WIFE] Did he speak? Did he flirt? Could you tell right away he was royalty? Is...
