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.

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

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.

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.

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.

THEN WHY ARE THEY AT THE SUPERMARKET? They even had the floral department in the parking lot, and still the store was overfull of people.
Everyone can't be at the restaurant and buying last-minute groceries and flowers all at the same time.
There was an ice cream social for V Day at work yesterday, but with meetings from 11-3, I couldn't go. But at least I had bitter overworked people to bitch with. Who didn't get pins as cool as mine...
Today I wore one of those parts of my wardrobe that I think I get really attached to that's not actually flattering. Like my sister and her orange pants. Heathered grey with granny ruffles over the boobs, I dunno. But I like my ruffles, dammit.

I wanted a drink (I get all spun up about confrontations, even email spats), but I'm sure all the bars have couples in them, so I came home and made a Pisco sour. NOM.
And now Jon Stewart is back from vacation, YAY. And he slaps the Bishops and Sean Hannity upside the head. Seriously: the $80/month I spend on cable is worth it, just for TDS and CR.
