(Love bites, love bleeds)
It's bringin' me to my knees
(Love lives, love dies)
It's no surprise
(Love begs, love pleads)
It's what I need

What? Can't a girl play a little air guitar to a Def Leppard song without you giving her some strange look? Yeah, I like to let loose sometimes, who doesn't? Dance like no one's watching - I saw that on a greeting card - and no one's watching here, pal, it's just me and the speakers cranked up and a jumbo size tub of Ben and Jerry's. And no, that's not sad, that's not pathetic. I'm no stereotype, believe me.

I live with my family, okay? I don't get much time alone, so when I do, I make the most of it. And sure, it's Saturday night and maybe I should be sitting here mooning over some guy, wishing I had a date, but I'm not.

Huh. I'm not, I'm really not. I always thought you had to have a man because if you didn't then who the hell was going to take care of you, but now... I don't know, things have changed. Maybe I don't need no one to take care of me. Maybe this girl can take care of herself.

Maybe.

	You play air guitar? That's what you do on a Saturday night? No wonder the neighbours have been complaining about the noise... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I might. So what if I do? And old Mrs. Delgado complains about everything. It gives her something to do. You know she's only nice to you cause she knows your a cop, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Damn right it is! No, it's because you kiss up to her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Okay, okay. I do not! Anyway she prefers Benny. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Can't blame her for that. I know I prefer him. I'd like to prefer him right now, actually... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ray_vecchio 2007-11-24 09:29 am UTC (link)
	Well you're not having him. And she's old enough to be his mother. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I hope you're not discriminating against older women, Ray! Because Ma might have something to say about that... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ray_vecchio 2007-11-24 02:10 pm UTC (link)
	Who's discrimintating? Besides I'd prefer no woman to look at Benny like that, old or not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Excuse me, us women can window shop! No harm done! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It embarasses him. You know Benny, he doesn't get window shopping. He thought it was shopping for windows. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	francesca_v 2007-11-27 01:28 am UTC (link)
	Come on, he loves it! And hey, I've seen him 'window shopping' you plenty of times my friend! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ray_vecchio 2007-11-27 09:53 pm UTC (link)
	He does not! Yeah, well, that's different. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, that's very kind of you, Francesca, but erm...I wouldn't want to be accused of any improperity. Fraser shifts awkwardly at the keyboard. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	francesca_v 2007-11-23 06:09 am UTC (link)
	Impropiety? Never, Benton, never. You're among friends, here. Let loose. Relax... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	francesca_v 2007-11-24 11:00 am UTC (link)
	In my culture, Benton? Oh yeah. Big respect. Huge. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	francesca_v 2007-11-26 12:04 pm UTC (link)
	Accurate, oh sure. But kind of a selective memory, you know what I'm saying? He 'forgets' things sometimes. Like 'forgetting' to mention he was dating you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
