Angelic Sookie, vision of love and beauty, I am prostrate that the wicked evil maenad violated your smooth and voluptuous body, in an attempt to deliver a message to me. -Eric

My first word for the New Year was 'exsanguinate.' This was probably not a good omen.

I could just envision Sam imagining that I wanted him to go out to the lake with me, only to be confronted by Jannalynn and whatever she thought of as a romantic dinner -- live rabbits they could chase together, maybe.

Look, how come he showed up now? When you have other fairies in the woods? And does that sound crazy when you say it out loud, or what?

you have to play it out sometimes.

What are you, Zen Master Fang?

It was beautiful Eric, who desired me, who was hungry for me, in a world that often let me know it could do very well without me.
