So I have this old friend who I used to tease about her over-the-top xmas decorating. Then she got married and moved away. And now she's chiding her husband that once she can read by the light of the outdoor displays, it is enough. I find this hilarious. He'd do well on 34th street. Has penguins and polar bears and animatronic deer and baubles and trees and santas and and and. He's not done. It's crazy!
Harken: You fought with Captain Reynolds in the war? Zoe: Fought with a lot of people in the war. Harken: And your husband? Zoe: Fight with him sometimes, too.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Really hoping this is nowhere near any of our California-istas!!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Now authorities face the risky task of getting rid of the explosives. The property is so dangerous and volatile that that they have no choice but to burn the home to the ground this week in a highly controlled operation involving dozens of firefighters, scientists and hazardous material and pollution experts.
As the woman quoted in the article said, that's INSANE.

(The whole set is worth looking at, if you want a taste of Baltimore's xmas parade. It's a lot, but it is awesome!)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I am simultaneously disappointed and relieved that I will not be in Baltimore for Christmas.

Baltimore is special. I love it (clearly.) It's so interesting and unselfconscious and broken and proud and homey and friendly and complicated. And it is beautiful.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Really hoping this is nowhere near any of our California-istas!!
Nope, but I used to live there. And am flying in, I think, Thursday. I should make sure the freeway is reopened.
That is honestly just messed up. I hope the controlled burn stays controlled.
