These quotes are from the last update through December 29, 2000... Enjoy!
What can I say? I was precocious, obnoxious and a terrible trauma to my mother. Some things, you know, never change.
---Anya about herself at the age of 15
I AM GOING TO DRAG YOU TO THE THEATRE.
Wait I can't. I live too far away.
DRAG YOUR JOSSIN' SELF TO THE THEATRE.
---Allie to me about me not seeing "Bring It On" yet.. lol
The stories she told were rather... violent. Safe to say that our dear little Goddess was evil right from birth.
---Karen about when she and Queenie had dinner with Anya
that is why "i" go incognito, keri. you never know who is going to embarrass you
---Dustie ... [about when I was in an embarrassing situation- lookin' like a
teeny bopper- buying the new 98* CD (and getting a free poster amongst the embarrassment! lol)]
i've always been a follower, but it's now a religion to me
---Queenie ... talking about procrastination
LOL... ya know, I don't think you have to worry about telling me your life story when I basically just went off myself. I am the life story girl. Wanna know something about me? You're bound to find out before you even decide you wanna know. lol... ;)
---Me
Keri: Thanks Benny- you're a good friend :)
Benny: well, it takes a good friend to bring the "good friend" out in you
Benny: if that makes any sense
Keri: Makes perfect sense. :)
---Benny and I in an AIM convo
Survival of the fittest. I'm very fit, very mercenary, btw. Thought you might like the warning.
---Anya
I am an: enigma, a puzzle that has no answer.
---Alex/KiNeTiC
How did you know that I needed more quotes in my bitchy state of mind? Have you been imitating me again??? :) Love it!
---Kristin to me when I sent her a forward called "Expressions for Stressed Women"
But what am I supposed to watch on Saturday nights then? Wait, I'm supposed to have a life on Saturday nights, not staying at home watching TV.
---Queenie about Xena's cancellation.. heh heh!
I can tell that Keri is really asking to be a sacrifice to Anya.. hehe.
---Karen
You're like a butterfly. You flit about from one thing to the next... "Ooh, I think I'll watch TV! Ooh, I think I'll play the piano! Ooh, I think I'll go online!"
---Missy to me :)
Anya: We are different... I'm like the dead when I sleep. My friends freak when we have a "girls night" and share a room, because I literally crawl into the bed and I don't move. At all. Trish freaks every time and tells me she checks to make sure I'm actually breathing. *lol*
Keri: LOL! How funny. I'm entirely restless. When I wake up, my sheets are all thrown about. Although for some reason, I seem to be tamer if I'm sharing a bed with someone- like when Malena and I would sleep together on tour... or my mom and I in England. Then I just move around a bit.. lol.. Malena was a riot to sleep with- she'd hit me (abuse!) and talk in her sleep about how tired she was.
Anya: *lol*
Keri: Then she was even more a riot in person when she would suddenly blurt out "I so want to kiss you right now" to me in front of the billets. LOL. I'd give her a death look, and she'd be like "Okay, I'll shut up now.." LOL
Anya: *LOL* Oh, I'd like her!!
Anya: My response would be to pucker up and say "lay it on me, babe!"
---Anya and I in an AIM convo ... LOL!
sheesh... i hate acting. i never take myself seriously at acting. i like directing and making other peeps make asses of themselves.. not my own (unintentionally)
---KiNeTiC/Alex
Dustie: are you trying to get off with me???? lol
Keri: *laughs* Am I trying to get off with you? excuse me? lol
Dustie: oh that sounded bad...off the computer...lol
Keri: lol.. see... now I just may have to immortalize that, ya know.. lol
Dustie: oh god....nnnnnnnnoooooooooooooo not the quote page......please. your friends already think i am a dog obsessed psycho!!!!!!
---Dustie and I in an AIM convo
It became unhealthy. See, you can depend on someone, but there's a difference between depending on someone... and being dependent.
---Me to Allie ... [She insisted I quote myself there. ;)]
Stay tuned for a graphic novel (© Keri) about the day with Anya.
---Queenie ... [heh heh! I like that copyright thingy :)]
The amazing thing is, the girls are night and day to each other. I mean, seriously! They're adorable! And -- they are all MINE! Err... at least, both are Priestesses as far as I'm concerned. :)
---Anya about meeting Karen and Queenie
i like playing characters... but not myself... how can i not play myself? (no one be a wiseass and glue the word "with" in the middle of that sentence)
---KiN/Alex
Anyhoo, I'm here with K, at her work. Why? Because I hauled a rather (extremely) heavy computer in, because it's no longer playing nice. So now, we're gonna gut it.
---Queenie
i know how it is to always be the strong one. that is me, too. but believe me every now and then it pays to allow yourself to be weak and to break down. it cleanses your soul and makes you feel refreshed. to lean on someone else and let them support you. it is a very hard thing to do. but once you do it you will feel so much better. i guarantee it!
---Dustie to me
When I was a little wee Goddess of Vengeance and Random Acts of Evilness (those primarily being vindictive bone breakages) my Daddy used to take me in to his lab on "Bring your Spawn to Work Days" (endorsed by the Federal Government who so happens to be Daddy's employer. What a small world!)
---Anya
I live in: hell, few blocks down from anya
---Alex/KiNeTiC
I'm very good at verbal wars. (Not false modesty. I am. I got Honours for debate.)
---Anya
allright! i've been quoted, now my words will live on in immortality... or until they're erased.
---KiNeTiC/Alex
Hmm... Goddess of evil, vengeance, and all other sorts of nasty things... Halloween: a time for all things that go bump in the night to come out and make mayhem... I dunno, those two just seemed to go together. Go fig.
---Queenie to Anya
Yeah, yeah, you're first. But, you given the long pauses between posts... (Keri, Karen... stop glaring at me. It's not hypocritical.. I'm a Goddess, dammit! Err. Okay, a delusional human?)... kidding!
---Anya to Via
I'm not quoted, I'm not quoted, I'm not quoted, I'm not quoted....
See..it pays to be silent ;)
---Julie
Well, you can always humiliate yourself in public... I'm not gonna stop you. I'll just make myself conveniently unavailable when you decide you want to make a scene. Heh.
---Karen to me about doing my "Cornholio/Beavis" routine hehe
I must say, our conversations oftimes disturb me. I don't like being the adult. Stop that. I'm meant to be irresponsible, selfish and nasty. This maturity common-sense stuff has just *got* to go!
---Anya to me
You do have a gift, and being passionate about the gift is what makes it really work!!
---Cari
we have this folding chair that i swear will break one day.... most likely with my butt on it
---Queenie
Why don't you thrill me with a scandalous tale of passion and mischief.... you know, the latest valet you mugged in a parking lot and ravished against the side of a car.
---Anya
No one likes a smart ass Goddess :)
---Julie to Anya
Anyhow, I just need to move. I'm about to rightly come live on your porch or Amber's...hehe...
---Allie/Little Will to me
I can't even picture it. I mean, I thought you were the paramount of innocense... which is why I like you. Nothing I say affects you, but yet still surprises you somewhat.
---Anya to me
Sometimes, it's like you're just setting yourself up for pain, if you know what I mean.
---Karen to me (reminder to myself)
heh. i am. i always am.
---Queenie about being right *smirk*
And can we stop being mature, Keri? It's scaring me. I don't like being a grown-up. This responsibility makes me nauseous. I may have to build a pipe-bomb and toss it at the local elementary school if we don't stop soon.
---Anya
I want one bad, and if you don't give me one I'm going to throw a mommie-fit. Which I btw learned from my 5-yr. old, so I'm really good at it. *smiles sweetly*
---JAAL to Queenie about getting a siggy :)
all these actors are up there, a lot of pretentious dorks that i've met earlier on. It's not that i don't like them, i just hate them.
---KiN about his play
You have no idea how often I drive past a high school and feel like a truant for not being in class. *lol* The good ol' days of love, life and petty jealousy. It was *so* fun alienating an entire school... even if the bastards did turn around and place me on student council when they were all supposed to hate me.
---Anya to Sagie
no problem. i will just call you bitchy keri from now on :)
---Dustie after a not-so-in-character-snappy-Keri email
Congrats Kin, I'm nominating you as person-who-should-be-quoted-more-often, and declining anyone for nominating me for that high-standing award. (Hint. Hint. Karen? Keri?)
---Anya
oh damn... must go... need to set vcr for the glorious reunion of Spike & Drusilla... ciao babe.... and behave, or I shall punish you with Ms. Edith. Thou shan't have tea and cakes if you're bad. :)
---Karen to me (about a Buffy episode)
Many come and go, but the good ones come back and stay... don't I know that truth...
---Damian about friends
now doesn't that teach you a lesson? never, ever pay attention to what you're reading. ;) i'm such a bad influence
---Queenie
*snicker* I'd hate for anybody to be left out of the tormen....errr... fun.
---Anya about quoting
we drive all the night to the beach and watch deers past through the misty streets (i could've sworn they were really big dogs or those really small horses that carry midgets around..) it was nighttime... sheesh.
---Alex/KiN
Parking lots are evil! I love alleys in good parts of town during the day though... not at night, duh, but during the day and in good parts of town... I mean, their name sounds GREAT. :)
---Allie
Now, my jazz excitement... Karen, try not to throw up.
I have a date tomorrow.
Did we all see that?
Oh yes, boys and girls... your Goddess is gonna go out on the town.
Woohooo... and... the bonus! He's good looking, verbose and... WEALTHY!
I'll be using the "Anya is a nice person, charming, interesting and you REALLY REALLY want to know her" persona tomorrow.
---Anya
*cough*
Disclaimer: never listen to any queenie bad influence
And never, ever tell your parents what i say.
---Queenie to me
Karen: heh.. at least I haven't keeled over from Anya's news.
Keri: I know! A date!
Karen: the world is ending
Keri: *laughs* I know I was surprised
Karen: surprised? that's it? :)
Keri: At least she didn't say she was getting married... then the world would surely be ending.
Karen: lol.. what if she said she was PREGNANT?
Keri: Then I'd keel with you.
---Karen and I in an AIM convo about Anya having a *gasp!* date! ;)
Yeah. Yeah. *sniff* You don't love me. That's all. And I know it. I'm unloved. Completely. I'd cry, but that would be giving all those cruel unloving peeps the victory. That, and that crocodile tears are hard to create.
---Anya to me
- i'm in love with anya but i don't have the guts to say it out loud!
- i kid about the above point.... (or do i?)
---KiN/Alex
You want my $0.02 on why people choose the friends they do, even at the risk of getting hurt? Because life is a gamble. And, without a little pain to mingle with the joy, there is no growth. You choose the friends you do because of who you are. Your friends might be the person you feel warm and comfy around, or someone that you just have to shake your head and laugh at because they're so outrageous. It might be someone you wish you were more like, or someone you wish wasn't taking the risks they did. Bottom line, it's someone your heart cries out as a friend. And when you start analyzing who you pick as a friend, rather than living your life and letting friends find you and find their way into your heart, well -- IMHO, that's when you've stopped living.
---Anya
Kristin: my friend's can't make up their minds. But we can tell we're aging, when we don't go to the big city stuff anymore. It's "let's stay at home and have a pot luck!" Egads!
Keri: LOL! Kristin! A POT LUCK sounds like you're senior citizens!
Kristin: I know what you mean!!!!! Pot luck my foot- like I want to cook!
---Kristin and I in an AIM convo ... about what to do on New Years Eve
It'd be pathetic if in court (for some divine act of ritual sacrifice, you understand) that it could be proved I'm not psycho to some degree. They'd actually start using dumb words like humane, kind, gentle, living... blah.
---Anya
Angela: All about the Kevin factor for me *le sigh* long hair, short hair, don't care. Put him in the leather pants, and throw him on screen
Keri: *laughs* You'd prolly love to be at a Xena con with him
Angela: I'd be arrested, it's that simple
---Angela and I in an AIM convo ... about "Ares" from Xena
Also, re: homie. Yeah, that's me, with my bling bling on the thing thing with the ring ring iceeee. Um -- LOL.
---Allie/Little Willow
I'm telling you, Buckleys will do it. It'll terrify you to health.
---Anya about cough syrup
Glad I could make you chuckle...I'm but a humble servant of humor and totally at your service...no, not that kind of servicing. Sorry, there I go again :-D
---Sara to me
Keep writing. I think that it's a big part of your healing process as well. I mean, I know you've done it before (writing, I mean), but I think that you are continuing to do so helps you to speak from the heart at your own pace. I'm behind ya all the way.
---Lydia to me
lol Poor Dillon :) Our wedding will just be a sham so that you and me can have our bondage weekend LOL!
---Julie to me
Ah, sunshine? The graphic novel? *sigh* God, I'm tired after reading it all. And that was the summation of a day. One day. Where DO you get your energy from?
---Anya to me
Don't y'all just love how I disappear for long periods of time and then just come by to make my presence known, even though this is my board?
---Queenie
Why is it no one believes me when I try to tell them that really, I'm a meanie? SIGH, this does nothing for a girl's rep you know!
---Sara
Anya: Well, on an upside, I do have your addy now... and yes, I've written it down in triplicate! Bwahahaha.
Keri: *laughs* It was about time you got my addy-- once again, laziness on my part.
Anya: And here it was because I thought you thought I was some sort of psycho. Damn.
---Anya and I in an AIM convo ... about her receiving a Christmas card from me
It's so easy for people to lose sight of themselves and get caught up in doing everything for other people. And then years later they're all mean and filled with resentment. I'm glad you're taking time to pay attention to you. :o)
---Evvie
Oh, and Keri, re fanfic? Heh. Anya hasn't forgotten..
So... run, hide, take a long journey, Keri. :-)
---Karen about B:WP
Naw, Keri won't be pleased. But since I'm so *old* I'm expected to be nasty.
---Anya to Karen about B:WP
I do not fear you two. But should Keri?
---Little Willow/Allie to Anya and Karen
Contrary to Anya-belief, I am not posting to avoid being turned into a frog. Because I know her well enough to know an empty threat when I see it. At least when it pertains to me.
---Queenie
I was not thrown up in 12 years- it was a traumatic experience!
---Keri's slip to Evvie ... [lol... meant to say "I have not.." ;) But this provokes quite a visual!!]
Keri: I won't prematurely age you in fic if you cooperate with the nice nasty Goddess.
---Anya
I just wanted to talk about my acting class where we as students had to create our own monolgues and perform them live infront of the class. Mine was pretty ill, i got my my little hot girlie girl to be tied up and gagged in the room (any you gals wanna go for the home version? anya? Ker? Kar.... **deflects smack**)
---KiN/Alex
Could I, can I let someone in? The way your words danced, I'd almost believe I could.
---Sara to me ... about a poem I wrote on being afraid to let someone in
I love the holidays *bounce* I love Christmas *bounce* I love the lights *bounce* I love the presents *bounce* I love my family *bounce* I love my friends *bounce* I love the fact that I can celebrate the holidays with out snow *bounce* *sNicker* I love the music *bounce* *bounce* Have I made anyone sick yet?
---Julie
Hey old foggie. I have to separate you from the above kids, because as Keri pointed out, we're old. *smirk*. Have a rockin' christmas, but do try to avoid too much excitement. At our advanced age, it might cause a coronary.
---Anya to W i l l
Yes, Anya, you're a perfectly bad influence on us all.
---Queenie to Anya
Wings rock... I have this thing where I need fairy wings, darn it. :)
---Allie/Little Willow ... about a poem of mine, "On Eagle's Wings"
Blah blah blah. (Boy I know how to babble, huh? Almost like that girl who always posts on Q u e e n i e 's board. Oh wait, that's you! j/k. Keep your shirt on;).
---W i l l
Oddly, despite my stand that I'm utterly non-maternal, a part of me craves the opportunity. This worries me considerably. Even more so when my mother played supportive advocate for my readiness for such a decision. Mommy's SHOULDN'T do that. It's just... unnerving. You know, you get the lectures from the time your 15 to 25 saying "don't do anything stupid" including words like "contraceptive" and now that I'm 28 (soon to be 29 as Mother kindly pointed out) she's all... go for it.
---Anya
Innocent? No one is innocent Sweetie. Heh Heh, I see to that :-D
---Sara
Okay, I know I can't think straight at all. Between Keri's profound email from a few days ago to this talk of having kids and marriage... I think I want a drink. NOW.
---Karen
You know, between Anya's pregnancy, my marriage, and Karen and Keri's new-found alcoholism, we're quite a board, aren't we? ;-)
Way to go Keri.. *smirk* :)
---Julie about the "outcome" of my quote page
It's not like I'm gonna go running out and jump the first gorgeous guy I see... although that sounds fun.
All in all... nice to see panic "eeek" mode set in. Truly. I think I'll ban my children from the 'net until they're 30.
---Anya
It's very, very strange to read this board at half past one in the morning. The lines between reality and sarcasm blur into a hazy shade of winter and I worry for you all. ;-)
---Allie about Queenie's MB
Sara: Aww shucks, I ain't the best. I'm just sorta fond of ya kid. *blush* that doesn't mean I wanna pick out curtains or any other mushy stuff like that. Sheesh, enough of this mush already.
Keri: LOL! We're not gonna go pick out curtains?? But- but- Sara, I had my heart set on bright pink!! LOL... kidding! ;)
Sara: (shudder) Pink...oh no, We GOTTA have a talk about the color of the curtains we aren't going to be picking out together. Pink...bleech.
---Sara and I
Dost thou lurk? Has the little ones been good girls and boys for Santa Claus? Has Mommy and Daddy been a good little girl and boy for Santa? 'cause, as I understood it, naughty parents don't get stockings full of coal, but children from hell. :)
---Anya to JAAL
bart is pretty nice though, if you like riding around with some hoodlum-looking people.
---Sagie/Stephanie
Always a phone call or email away, and someday, a drive away. (Yeah, between Amber and me, we'll drive, sure. *grin* Start your engines, Kare.)
---Allie/Little Willow to me
I'm not stupid. That's a suckup "I love you" if I ever saw one. What have you done? (Other than write another epic post.)
---Anya to me
Keri: It's alright... we're all a little slow sometimes, Julie. *pat pat* *smirk*
Julie: *bite*
Julie: Damn! I forgot! Keri has rabies! ...damnit now I need to get a rabies shot
---Julie and I in an AIM convo
Your quoting habits finally made print. And despite your fears... I'm not going to kill you. I was laughing so hard as I read Volume 1 that tears were on my face... I even had to share with my parents as to what was so damn funny. You're all a treasure, and even if I do roll my eyes and sigh huge heaves of grief, I'd never change a thing about your quotatious frenzy... other than directing you to find new victims. :)
From the bottom of my cold black heart: Thank you!
---Anya to Karen, Queenie, myself, et al about her Christmas present :)
