expected I'm sure. 

Oh, I doubt it was my looks. She did say she liked my makeup, after 
all. I think she was intimidated by my speaking style: I'm used to 
making my point heard in large rooms full of contentious opinions--
and I wasn't about to let her wiggle out of an answer, either. 

Ever notice during our pizza-n-theory sessions how I tend to talk 
over and interrupt people? That's a habit of mine left over from 
college and public speaking.

Or that you'd had a domestic situation involving childcare and an 
obstinate husband. I'm glad you made it home safe, Lilac.

because he was feeding off Nagini's milk. Some of us in the group 
didn't like the idea of poor Bertha's body being used that way, and 
Lilac says "Maybe Nagini's the mommy." Then the discussion turned 
into a Wormtail/Nagini ship. 

I was just about to expound on this when I realized it's probably too 
**on**-topic for this list. <snicker>
