abuseSo thanks for the (re) review, and the encouragement - I really had a bad day yesterday and I was in such a bad mood (and I'm usually not the constant bad mood kind of person - something always makes me laugh in the end) but I was **. I had to come over here and review again because of what you said: "someone I really, barely know!" That made me laugh, and it's so true for our little relationship here. That's cool about your sister and "mum" (I love how you guys say mum over there, it seems softer then "mom") but anyway I will go and check them out. You're lucky that you have family who (write) or at least "get it" I'm the only one in a long list who puts pen to paper for fun. So, yes, I feel like I had more to say but I don't remember what - I've been at work for ten hours and I've had so much coffee that I'm too wired to do anything else but sit and write on and on right here. I should go though - Love "Gingerbread" part two - the sequel featuring both Jack and Juliet. (Don‘t mind the insanity, it comes in waves!)

Much loves,Juliet.

abuseStick-figures drawn all over your hide I LIKE THE IMAGE OF STICK FIGURES, LIKE TATTOOS, love is easier to swallow if we're cartoons - INTERESTING, I WOULDN‘T EXPECT SOMETHING LIKE THAT TO WORK SO WELL IN THE CONTEXT BUT IT REALLY DOES. Tipping the balance to ride the tide, sugar tastes better from the fingers, no spoon. THE SUGAR AND SPOON PART (VERY SEXY) I LIKE IT WHEN PEOPLE TALK ABOUT THEIR SEXUAL FEELINGS - MAYBE NOT SEX-LIVES OR ACTUAL SEXUAL EXPERIENCES BUT AT LEAST THEIR SEXUAL FEELINGS - I THINK IT’S ONE OF THE MOST NATURAL STATES THAT A PERON CAN BE IN OR DISCUS.

(I totally didn‘t realize that I was writing in all caps until just now - forgive, forgive, I‘m so tired.)

Musk is the right sound and it fits to explain exactly the way you fill up the air. (I love that man-smell - that smell that men get - you being one, I‘m sure you know what I‘m talking about - love, love, love, but it is more like a musk then a smell.)

That bitterness I've come to know and expect, (or respect) I don’t think that you meant it to read like this, but I got a sense of prejudice from this. Like you are a normal person but the way you live isn’t normal to others (that might just be me though - always wanting to take a stand.)

Sorry that I could not review this sooner; I’ve had like five hours of sleep in the last 72 hours and my car got towed yesterday and I had this huge blow up with the people who towed it - and I think I ran across the whole length of Seattle at least twice yesterday. Me sleepy! But I have to go to work in an hour and I still have to paint my nails (Hot Pink.) Really enjoyed this, keep up the good work.
