When we get down to it, what does "rock my socks" mean?

[quote name='Raphael' date='Nov 13 2005, 12:52 AM']There's a time for men to cry and there's a time for them to be strong.  You have to learn on your own when those times are.

i have yet to figure that out

[azaelia]

This is totally my thread


[i]If I should die this very moment
I wouldn't fear
For I've never known completeness
Like being here
Wrapped in the warmth of you
Loving every breath of you
Still my heart this moment
Or it might burst...[/i]

Most slang is best left unexamined.

(Even "rocking")

No one wants to join me in my romanticism?

awwww......i love it!!

heres part of a poem by edgar allen poe that i absolutely adore

[quote]but our love was stronger by far than the love
of those who were older then we-
of many wiser then we-
and neither the angels in the heavens above,
nor the demons down under the sea,
can ever dissever my soul from the soul,
of he who loved me...
[/quote]


I edited the ending cuz it's my away message but it's really supposed to be

'can never dissever my soul from the soul,
of the beautiful Annabelle Lee'

I sang a song based on that verse last year in choir, the Rene Clausen arrangement of Set Me as a Seal. BEAUTIFUL...at the "many waters" part, there is this effect of an ebb and flow that makes you think of water. So pretty.

Anyway...I'm quite sappy too. I'm always a sucker for a good romantic movie.

[missionseeker]

or book.

[color=#ff0066]I'm not really one for romance novels, but I do quite enjoy cute movies, though I'd choose Lara Croft over the Notebook any day.[/color]

[scardella]

I think I'm a closet hopeless romantic. I just have a ruthless logical emotionless facade, sort of like an M&M w/ a hard candy shell.

Not really.

Though the publishers have been shifting toward lots of explicit content in the last few years.

Still, most women read romance for the relationship. "Erotica" is female porn.

[Proud2BCatholic139]

Even in some teenage books, it has gotten pretty explicit when it comes to innuendoes.

[jiyoung]

Yeah, it has. By the way, don't read the latest Princess Diaries, or let your children read it...it's basically all about whether she should have sex with her college-aged boyfriend. She's, what, 15, 16? Gah! Meg Cabot's other book is all about that too, but it is far more explicit...I got disgusted and stopped reading it. (why was I reading it in the first place? uh...)

I'm a romantic at heart but kinda bitter...well not so much bitter. I'm sort of pessimistic though. Never met a man to soften me either. ah, well...

[Proud2BCatholic139]

What book was that? The third one?

[jiyoung]

I don't remember which installment it is...whatever the latest one is, I think maybe the 5th or 6th? And the other one she wrote would be the sequel to All-American Girl. An example from the PD book: "Of course I want to have sex with you, but not yet--in a couple years maybe." "Of COURSE we'll use condoms, I'm not stupid..." Etc. etc. Brainwashing like this is what made me think Planned Parenthood must be okay if they were passing out condoms when I was younger. Don't let your kids read this...
