More self-confidence.

I would not have guessed that about you. You seem plenty confident and capable.

Trust me, self-confidence is my biggest weakness. Holds me back from a lot of things, like submitting stuff to see if I can get published.

FWIW, submitting manuscripts takes a certain amount of masochism.

I will be doing that exact thing on Tuesday: I feel like I'm losing a part of me.

Does it bother you to see babies with piercings?

It's so funny you asked that question.  On that same day I had a dream that Octomom wanted a baby girl from me.  She was so sure she was going to get her that she showed up at the hospital on the delivery day and had the baby's ears pierced and nails painted.  I was furious.

That said, I have known some girls that have had their ears pierced since they were a baby and they were grateful that they didn't have to go through the unpleasantness of the maintenance when they were older.  I would still never do it.

Would you rather lose an arm or a leg?

I'd go for leg.

[RCMerchant]

NO!

My leg. Would taste better.

I would have to go with leg. Someone in my house has to be able to open jars.

I think I taught Bronte (Jane Eyre), once for a grad school lit theory class (in light of Gilbert and Gubar's Madwoman in the Attic), and another for an undergrad gothic lit.

I can't remember using Alcott, but I remember watching the 1994 movie after Christmas, and in the theater. It was OK, but Winona was still a hottie.

Do you like boiled cabbage? 

[ER]

Actually it's not bad.

[Alex]

No. Cabbages and Brussel sprouts are both evil.

[Rev. Powell]

I can eat cabbage in things, but not boiled by itself.

Cabbage is one of the only cruciferous vegetables I can tolerate.
