She's freakin' adorable. I think the name is perfect for her. And, no, we don't need more of them. Too many Alices would take the uniqueness from her.

She's pretty cool. Mild-mannered business lady by day and on weekends is part of a roller derby team. We go watch her matches and it's pretty violent but fun. Never would have known it before I knew it. Glad I never pissed her off.


I don't know any Alices but I agree. If I was single I might pay extra attention to Alices as potential dates.

By some miracle it all turned out "Happily ever After" for everyone, but I still have the scars.

She tried to kill herself, naked, in my bathtub. My apartment. And then things just got worse.

I did quite a bit of bleeding too. Do not jump out of moving cars. On the Greyhound bus nobody wants to sit next to the bloody guy with the torn up clothes.



Christ save me, early 'eighties stuff, and I'm still not entirely right-in-the-head about it.
