Once I get over twitching at every creak and wondering if that crack is new and bursting into tears over a 6" snow forecast, yeah. Big time. I can even see a glimmer of it now between bouts of ohshit. Actually, the glimmer was blinding until today, the first real day of downtime.

Snowpocalypsegeddon 2010 really expanded my social circle.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

ITA. Hell, I bring a change of clothes for ME when I'm traveling by air! (Last thing I want is to be stuck somewhere with lost luggage and no clean underwear, you know?)

Been there. It sucked. Nothing says "great planning" like sleeping nekkid on hotel sheets of dubious cleanliness while yr underthings drip dry in the bathroom. Not fun.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

-t, hopefully you'll see this. I'm evaluating an Android phone, and I was wondering what apps your husband would recommend. I've already grabbed the Pandora app, and the Astro File Manager. What else is good?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I can't think of a Leonard Cohen song that would be appropriate for the Olympics.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm hoping it lives up to its name, but I'm worried that it might be better known as heart disease pie. 8 egg yolks! Zoinks!

Hasn't the eggs -> heart disease thing been pretty well debunked? I think if you have heart disease you still avoid them, but that the causation notion is not so much these days.

ENJOY THE PIE!

Poor pukey baby.

Our wings are not tired.

♥ ♥ ♥ Happy Valentine's Day ♥ ♥ ♥

Cause I love y'all.

I agree as above, total parent fail. I can't imagine not having kid change of clothes on even short trips. Stuff happens.

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

Eh, could be he was on change number five. And there are only so many outfits you can bring in a carry-on bag, even for someone the size of most larval humans.

Fair point, Calli.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Not -t, but as a cliq user, I like Aldiko, Sports tap, Where, My Days, My coupons, Gigbox and Sherpa. There's also a basic money manage I just got and don't remember the name of. Oh! Tv.com!
