Thanks Java cat--I think I have it covered though.
Natter 64: Yes, we still need you
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Teppy, did you watch "Arrested Development"? One of my favorite scenes EVER was when the Bluths reminisced about the pictures instead of grades...thanks for the reminder.
I *loved* Arrested Development!
Dear Castle,
My dad's been hit harder than that stunt and lived. Wounds make no sense. Mine's sheared off half his face. Road rash, not gashes.
But I guess it's just tv.
"Totes"? You've been hanging with a bad crowd, my friend, picking up their "lingo."
I learned it from Jesse and msbelle!
You did not learn it from me. Bon bon, maybe.
Maybe Bon. Maybe Rio.
I totes use totes.
I am against the use of "totes" unless it is followed by "magotes."
Heathens.
OK, I have no idea why I am noticing this now, but city is loud. Not just the nearby traffic and sirens, but a low ambient whubub. It's kinda freaking me out that I can pick it out. Out where my parents live, it's nature and the occasional whoosh of a vehicle up I-25. Up in the mountains, rush of the wind in the pines, and absent that, you'd occasionally be able to hear traffic down in the valley, 4000ft below. In Bhutan it was.... a barking dog, rush of the river below. But so much silence. But I've lived in the city for 12 years. I kinda ignored it.
And suddenly this week, I can hear the city. I can't escape it. It's like an olfactory supersensitivity. It's making me a little weird.
I mean, I would use "totes," but only ironically. I would use totes for grocery shopping.
