Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I generally like Salt Lake City's airport, but there are way too many fucking people in the basement, and not enough seats. And it's impossible to hear. And the internet signal is weak. And no one has brought me a pony.

Don't tell Dana that her pony was sucked into a 777 engine...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Boo, Dana.

A friend of mine who was weighing size, efficiency, and cost, ended up with a Fit and loves it.

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

I think now would be a great time to buy a 2008 Prius. I'm guessing there are some amazing deals to be had, given Toyota's current reputation.

Trust my rage

My 70 miles is 95% interstate where I'd be going probably 80mph. My secondary concern is that there is often snow in the winter. Maybe I should be expanding my search?

Punishingly Intricate

Two feet of snow

So traumatized my heart skipped a beat when I read that.

My parents have a Civic Hybrid and love it too.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

There are no 777s in sight of this basement right now. There are tiny planes with two seats on each side, no overhead room, and stale air. I had to sit cranked to the side the whole time on my previous flight, because the guy next to me had shoulders too wide to fit in his seat. And his legs spread, because of course guys have to sit with their legs spread as wide as possible.

I am actually in a fairly good mood right now, except for the pony thing. And in like three hours, I will have a shrift.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Stephanie, my sister drives a VW Jetta for her 56 mile commute and it sips gas. And it has butt warmers!

Coding and Sleeping

Diesel might be a good option with all that highway travel, a lot of the hybrid advantages are lost without city driving. VW's really the only game in town for that.

lisah, mine too. I think even the weather reporters are losing it.

Congrats, Stephanie!

hip deep in pie

I think the weather world is turvy topsy because all that snow you guys are getting, we're getting as rain.
