I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Can't she just go to Columbia (or even Yale) and still be around? Was there some plot point about this?

Nice back pack with lots of pockets, but spendy: [link]

(I can't make that go to the US site.)

I don't remember, actually. TBH I don't pay much attention to plot points in Castle: it's a fluffy show for me, and I don't think about it much.

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

Good good, that is pricey.

Yeah, Roots leather stuff is crazy expensive. I got what is essentially this bag, minus the hanging laces: [link]

At an after Xmas sale at another store for $30. I almost shat when I saw what they were asking for that version. (ETA: I love mine and I use it every day and can stuff a tonne of crap in it.)

Art Crawl!!!

Panhandling Ponies are causing problems on Assateague Island. There are people who will put their kids on these ponies - hello! Not safe, people. Plus, feeding ponies random stuff is not safe for the ponies.

I just got a $508 ticket at UCLA. Parking. Seriously. To pay or not to pay? Thoughts? Do the UC tickets ever really matter?

WTF? What for?

And I say you challenge it--UCLA is part of the state government, after all.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

$508? um ... that's a lot (says the carless person). What for?
