I actually had an impromptu Book Club with these two girls I recommend Perks to last night....they loved it

 

 

and because I recommended it, it gives me extra "you are so sweet" points

 

 

"i would die for you, but i won't live for you"

 

"in that moment, we were infinite"

 

"remembering a time when happiness was based on french fries"

 

"i wanted your first kiss to be from someone who loves you"

 

 

 

just a great book

I ordered Point counter Point, As I lay Dying by Faulkner, and The Wallflower one, but they couldn't ship it, lol. So maybe I'll happen upon it sooner or later.

Dear sodamntired,

 

Life - specifically dating - isn't like a video game. You do not get "experience points" towards a date and/or a boyfriend/girlfriend. "You are so sweet points" do not exist.

just a great book

are those quotes from the book?

 

that shit makes me want to throw up, if you want to woo a woman, quote some anne rice:

 

'she ripped the head half off the neck, staring at the white bones of the broken spinal cord, then swallowing the death instantly with the violent spray of blood from the torn artery. but the heart, the beating heart, she would see it, taste it.'

 

'and you must know we do not really change over time; we are as flowers unfolding; we merely become more nearly ourselves'

 

'kill the god. tear him limb from limb. let the mortal worshipers do as they have always done - mourn for him who was meant to die. "go, the mass is ended."'.

 

you can thank me later.
