Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

She's not registered anywhere! She's quitting and moving to DC, not getting married. And seriously, she's in her 50s and going from a two-bedroom to a small one-bedroom, so I'm pretty sure Stuff would be the wrong way to go here.

Ah, shit. Of course I have! Sorry, you guys. I am just actually kind of concerned about this whole thing.

Thrive to spite them

I say go with the Giftcard. She can use it to treat herself to whatever she wants.

Or if she moves and realizes she downsized the wrong thing she can get a replacement.

When I left my job and moved I got gift cards and it was really nice. Especially when I kept discovering things I didn't think I'd need and didn't pack but then ended up needing anyway.

Sorry, Jesse. Didn't mean to exacerbate the situation. I just couldn't resist.

No, no worries.

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

You know, that's the most persuasive non-anti-Comic Sans argument I've ever seen.

Sandwich question: Toasty crust an important part of club sandwiches y/y?

Exactly.

The outfit I'm wearing today hides my waist, makes my butt look flat and my breasts look kind of big. Also, it would be sartorially appropriate on a five year old. Yet, I like it.

Coworker? The missive against jewelled flip flops? Your shoes are bejewelled flip flops with heels. However, I'm wearing a mini skirt, so let's call it a wash.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Thanks to Kat's link this morning, now whenever I eat something straight out of the can I can think "just like F Scott Fitzgerald! The rich really are different from you and me, buddy." Really classes up those cold raviolis.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I was just reading some of the naming stuff on google+ and I just realized that even if I used my "real" name (not Sophia), it is not actually my legal name. I use Brooks as my middle name, and have for 18 years, but it is not on my birth certificate, SS Card, Driver's License, etc. My middle name is really Marie. My mother completely approves of the change and wishes she thought of it-- Brooks is a family name that is often used as a middle name for male family members. It makes me wonder if I should change it legally (not for google+ purposes, but just for ease)
