Timelies all!
Tired cat is tired.
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Thanks guys. I told her to ask her doctor for tests, but her memory is not good and she's as stubborn as a pike, so who knows if she will or not.

x-posted with Bitches: after twelve years, I just bought a (used) car. I can go places when I want to go places.
I'm kind of freaking out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's exciting, amyth! I sometimes dream of driving, but am too scared.

You don't drive, Jesse? Sometimes I dream of an urban life where I never have to drive again, but here in NC, 12 years with almost no driving has been pretty limiting.
Also, hivemind: anyone on here Scottish, or know anyone Scottish? A FOAF is writing a book set in Scotland and has a question about a turn of phrase.

Nope. I have a license, but haven't driven in years. Not regularly since high school. Boston is the kind of place where you can do without, but it is better to have a car. Or at least access to one....

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
When I was last in Boston, I feared for me life: while being a passenger in a car, while being a pedestrian. I could not believe the extent to which people drove fast and badly and didn't seem to care about basic rules of the road.
I give Boston drivers the side eye to this day!

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
Boston is the worst place I've driven. People pass on the right in a single lane. They sit a lights with one foot on the accelerator and one on the brake.
