iPod and headphones are in my backpack. My sunglasses broke and I need to buy new ones. My parents are bringing the towels and my beach bag. I hate bug spray. Raincoat is a very good idea.
If you want me to leave, you can put your hands on my hot, tight little body and make me.
Spike ,'Get It Done'
Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[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.

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

And I certainly think that someone holding views like those does not deserve to be punched in the face for the mere act of holding them.
Well, that's why I don't actually like to talk politics with people. Even the ones who agree with me. I get really irrational and, umm, face-punchy. It's something that's happened to me since the 2000 election. (And I didn't say she deserved face punching. I said I'd avoid her because I'd be constantly fighting the urge to face punch. Which is a different thing.)

(I also, and this could be related to the face-punch reaction, could not date someone with a world view that didn't mesh with mine. YBMV, obviously, but if someone sent up anything that was a personal flag, I'd run like hell. I mean, I had a relationship that I knew wouldn't work out after our first date, because she was a dog person to the extreme. And I like dogs, but a dog person I'm not. She was a nice girl, but that was pretty much a deal breaker for me.)

OK, everything on the list is either in the suitcase or set aside for me to use tomorrow and then put in the suitcase. Dirty dishes are in the dishwasher. I went through the fridge and either froze or through out everything that won't last until I get back. There is one banana on the kitchen counter for breakfast tomorrow. Keys are in the pocket of the jeans I'm going to wear tomorrow. Cell phone is charging. Alarm clock is set for two hours before my train leaves. I found someone to water the plants in my office. Everybody in the math department who might need to reach me has been given the email address that forwards to my Blackberry. What else?

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
So, wait, I'm late to the party...

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Randomly, odd bit of disabled "access" I noticed today:
My favorite was stores with out automatic doors, before the punch plates were put in, would have signs that read something like, "If you're disabled and need our assistance, please let us know", only there was no way to easily get in the store if you're using a wheelchair.

How to make Cheap "wine" with Kool-Aid.
"It’s drinkable after about 2 weeks, but improves greatly after 3-4 weeks."
Define "drinkable..."

My co-worker says they used to do that with jugs of grape juice as a teen in Idaho. Don't think they used a pin on the balloon, though.
