See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Bookmarking everything, juliana. Thanks.

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

Cool. I hear they perform pretty well, in addition to amazing mileage.

Punishingly Intricate

Has Toyota fixed all the issues cropping up left and right?

Aren't they not really sure? I was giving them...not the benefit of the doubt exactly but I wasn't too concerned about the recall but, having heard the stories of what happened when their cars accelerated unexpectedly and (this is what I didn't realize) UNCONTROLLABLY, I'm pretty freaked out about it.

I'm sure to be in the market in the next couple of years (I thought this year but not with wedding and condo not being sold yet) and I'm wondering if there's a Mazda that would work for me. My '99 Protege has been pretty reliable I think.

And in like three hours, I will have a shrift.

Feel free to take pictures of her new haircut. When she's not looking and stuff.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Well we got home, but as soon as I told him the sitch 1) no more afterschool 2) he needs to give me the DS, at least right now HE FLIPPED! He's now slammed in his room (his doing) after I denied him 1) leaving 2) going into the kitchen that has wet paint AND a painter in it 3) watching tv.

It is not a good thing that a TON of breakables from the kitchen are sitting around the livingroom because of the painting. I should probably start putting some of them behind some closed doors.

I will not runaway. I will not runaway. I will not runaway.

I rented a Mazda 3 once - it was nice, for a small car.

Trust my rage

I was just looking at the TDI models. Looks like the Golf is still coming; not out yet. And, unless I was looking wrong, the highway miles are still in the low 30s, as opposed to the 40+ for the Civic/Prius.

That mileage can't be right.
