		<description><![CDATA[As the cranky old lady of the internet, social networking can be annoying.  Probably because I&#8217;ve done BBS.  I&#8217;ve played in chat rooms.  I&#8217;ve created avatars and connected with people in communities with full voice duplexing and text.  I&#8217;ve built web pages without a CMS.  But as I&#8217;ve said before, I&#8217;ve gotta stay hip with [...]]]></description>

It was a long courtship of walks, parks, car rides, and movies on the couch.  He waited to sleep with me for six months.  Then one day when I came home on crutches [...]]]></description>
