Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Our wings are not tired.

Whatever the case, I admire you for getting out there and meeting people. That is SO important. And I don't want you to get your hopes deflated if this one doesn't work out. You're doing awesome just seeking out new people. And even if she doesn't end up being someone you date, you've opened up the dating arena by meeting her. Good on ya!

Thrive to spite them

I misunderstood him.

He doesn't think people are lazy. He just doesn't think health care is a right.

I may have to remove him from my list.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Well, unless you want to have that conversation a million more times. Personally, I wouldn't. It's right up there with the male libertarians obsessed with(a woman's, not theirs) "right" to sell their ass. grr...hulk smash!ETA: Although it is kind of funny to watch them back away slowly when you suggest this as a way for LibGuy to solve his own student-loan type dilemmas. Cause, you know, he didn't mean his ass, just some hot chick's.

Some new version of NIMBY?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Randomly, odd bit of disabled "access" I noticed today: the building that my office is in has at least five different entrances. One of them is in the back of the building, and the door opens onto a stairwell -- after you go in and go forward about two feet, the only places to go are up or down stairs. That door has a button to automatically open it. I actually do appreciate it, since that door is kind of heavy and it hurts my shoulders a bit to pull it open, but I've never seen the official reason for putting in one of those buttons being anything other than wheelchair access.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Here's a pretty nifty wedding processional video.

It kinda makes me want to get married, and I don't even dance.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

That's so fun and charming, Calli!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

There is a coffee shop in my neighborhood that has a wheelchair/stroller ramp....at the top of a two-step stoop.

Accessibility FAIL.

I need to pack my suitcase. I know I'm going to forget something. I so cannot focus on stuff like this.

OK, categories?

Clothes: underwear, socks, bras, casual shirts, dressy shirts, one dress, one skirt and top outfit, shorts, jeans, pajamas

Beach stuff: bathing suits, shorts and t-shirts, sunscreen, baseball cap, water shoes

Shoes: sneakers, Tevas, ballet flats

Medical: medicines, TENS, ice pack with wraparound strap

Toiletries: hair stuff, hair brush, comb, elastics, clip, razors, shaving cream, body wash, shower poof, toothbrush, toothpaste, contacts, contact case and solution, deodorant

Other stuff: makeup, jewelry, camera, camera charger and cords, cell phone charger, iPod charger, books

What am I forgetting?

(Sorry for clogging the thread with this. I really cannot focus well enough to do this without writing out the list, and I know that someone will spot something that I forgot.)
