Angel: Eve. So, I guess we should, I don't know, talk? Eve: About what? Angel: About what happened back there with us. Eve: Angel, it's not like this is the first time I've had sex under a mystical influence. I went to U.C. Santa Cruz.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

LA is absurdly wet and grey. I'm calling it El Nino weather, I don't care what they say.

Xmas shopping is almost done, but the house is still a wreck. 4 days until my sister arrives, which gives me 4 days to clean it up and make it festive-looking.

I have been on a vague endorphin rush since my stretch class at 10 am today. Is that normal?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

women who suddenly turn into idiots who must be protected by a man make you throw things.

Good call, good call. This is why I avoid Heinlen.

Thanks for the recs! My mama sent me a kindle and I've been buying many books.

I got Dracula and The Secret Garden for free. I haven't read them in yonks, and have no idea where they have gone.

Allyson! I should call you sometime this week! But not tonight or Monday night. After that is golden. If I don't start a game of phone-tag, harass me via email until I do. I keep remembering that I have a funny thing to tell you and then I forget it for months and then I remember "Shit, I should call Allyson and tell her the funny thing."

Also I am distributing copies of Sam for Xmas so yay. Children of my acquaintance who do not love it will be disowned.

On which note I need to sleep because I have to be in DC early tomorrow, bleh.

I have a box o' stuff for strega. I am awesome at picking up things that make me think of folks. I am bad at mailing them.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I have a vague recollection of reading some early (maybe 19th century) sci-fi novel about a post-apocalyptic future with a title something like The Night World, but all Google turns up by that name is a recent series of Twilight-esque supernatural books by L. J. Smith.

ETA: Aha! It was The Night Land by William Hope Hodgson.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I have heard of this. Never experienced it, but have heard of it. And experienced total jealousy.

That said, I may hit up a stretchy light yoga from OnDemand just to see if I can unkink myself.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am skipping to end the end to report that my Wegman's had "Discontinued" signs on the OB tampons, and only had 5 boxes of regular left, and no others. I bought the 5 boxes. The local Walmart no longer has shelf space marked out for them.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

The person at the end of this thread claims to have talked to OB and heard it's a supply line thing. [link]

I hope that's the case as it's better than a phase-out.

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