Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Our wings are not tired.

I vote Miami. (shocking, I know)

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

That's great, Suzi

Hmm meara, if it were me, I'd go to Hawaii, but Miami does offer greater proximity to Laura. Plus Harry Potter's Wizarding World. sigh.

My kids put on their pjs before dinner. And yet? Still running around like crazy people.

I just found out one of my neighbors is a mortician. Because there is a hearse parked on my street (she's my friends' tenant, which is why I now know.) But it gave me a little start tonight.

Also, I want a Juanita waterbottle now.

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

Timelies all!

My deepest sympathies, Maria.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I will pass on the congrats to CJ. Now if I could just get him to put the same effort into his school work. Ahhh, there is always something.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Well done, CJ! That's some hard work, man. I think you might even have a career in front of you. Also? Chicks dig rescue workers.

Suzi! The A's just went and droppd a buttload of money on a Cuban free agent! Craziness.

Have you seen his training video? It's gone viral in baseball circles because (a) he's incredibly strong and fit and fast; and (b) it's incredibly cheesy (set to Christopher Cross's "Sailing" of all things).

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

I was not, aromantic bitter single that I am, pissed at V Day until I had to cruise the supermarket parking lot for a spot, and until I got stuck in traffic.

WTF? I didn't know this was that interfering of a "holiday"? Fuck off.

"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

Oh, it's that interfering a holiday. I live on the street where most of the bars and many of the nicer restaurants in my town are, so every parking space is filled with the massive pickups and SUVs of people who've been told the very survival of their relationships depends on having a romantic evening out tonight.
