Hello Sinister! I decided to write because I read Sara's post and it made me happy. In my car, I finally switched from the new Flaming Lips album, to the Belle & Sebastian mix that Ben made. There is something so perfect about the subtle Southern California fall weather that compliments B&S so well. I only get to hear one song at a time now, since I get to work fatser than you can say "brush fire" but I make that one song really count. I turn up the volume real loud and sing along. This morning it was "There's Too Much Love". "AND WHEN I COME TO BLOWS, WHEN I AM NUMBERING MY FOES..." That reminds me of something. The first rule is that I'm not supposed to talk about it. But I can't resist. I've been initiated into a "fight club"... It started last night. I was hanging some curtains in my room. Then RHONDA came in and sat right down on the other panel I hadn't hung yet. I told her to "give me that, snatch ass!" and threw her onto my bed. As soon as my back was turned, there she was all over my curtains again, and this time she had snagged them as she tried to run away from me. She thought it was some sort of game I guess. Now I was really mad, hard time. I tried to grab her and she sunk her teeth into my arm. She left a puncture wound with a bruise. I whacked her on the bottom pretty hard and pushed her back onto the bed. She just kept coming at me with her blue eyes glowing and her sharp claws slashing me every time I got close enough to grab her by the scruff of the neck and throw her half persian/half siamese ass out. She is really into this Fight Club thing! This morning she passed me in the kitchen on the way to her food bowl and she gave me that knowing "you're in" nod. It feels so *great* to be socially accepted, even if it is by someone as anti-social as my sister's cat. I am so happy that Halloween is coming up so soon. I'm dressing up as a spooky witch in a sexy dress. And Ben returns to me in a week. He got his Visa and now all we have to do is get married in 90 days. It's going to be New Year's Eve, probably in Santa Barbara. One year after the first time we kissed. It's surreal that I'm going from being Ben's list crush to Mrs.Apps after only a year. But you gotta move quick to stay ahead of the government! I'm going to be so proud to be his wife. Those of you who know Ben will know what I mean. He's just so loveable, a great person to be around, and a wonderful boyfriend (even long-distance) and I'm sure he's going to be the husband of my dreams. I hope that every one of you single people out there find a match for you as fitting as the one I have found in Ben. As a side note to those who may be gagging, remember that begrudging other people their own happiness is a step in the right direction if you want to alienate yourself from others even further. I learned that lesson the hard way. It took me 28 years as well as consorting with foreigners to find true love. I think if there is someone out there so well suited for ME then there must be SOMEONE for EVERYONE. You'll see! I know that some of the Sinister massive will be in the area for our wedding day, which will be very nice. Maybe the person who ends up buying Stuart Murdoch's Grenada will be in the area, too, and they'll get it in time to be our chauffer on the way to what ever New Year's Honeymoon Blowout that ensues. Although, that person would have to be pretty drunk already to end up with it, so I'm not sure I'd want them taking me anywhere! They'll have to let me drive. I'll be driving along blaring "I Love My Car" and singing along as loud as I can, over the clanking of the tin cans tied to the bumper. love, Rachel fruitloop p.s. �VIVA RACHELS!
