Maybe, maybe not.

I was never a June Cleaver person...

Donna Reed was the mom I was REALLY hot for.
Vacuuming in a coctail dress, pearls and stockings with the 
line up the back....

Yowza! 
I knew I was loving it, I just was too young to know why

Sounds like 90% of the divinatory meanings of most cards.

Heh, next thing you know, someone here will come up with a

There are SO damn many more things I want to try in 
the SCA than I can possibly have time for. 
It's killing me!!!

Upon the hempen tackle ship-boys climbing;
Hear the shrill whistle which doth order give
To sounds confused; behold the threaden sails,
Borne with the invisible and creeping wind,
Draw the huge bottoms through the furrow'd sea,
Breasting the lofty surge: O, do but think
You stand upon the ravage and behold
A city on the inconstant billows dancing;
For so appears this fleet majestical,
Holding due course to Harfleur. 
  - Shakespeare - Henry V, Act III, Prologue
