I like walking to Target because I'm limited to what I can carry. Keeps me from spending $100 every time I go.
Mostly.
Stop means no. And no means no. So . . . stop.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ky kids usually start bickering in the car on the way home from after school.
Oh DH took care of pick up. Turns out homework supervision is on me. As is dinner. And finishing those cupcakes!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I want to go to bed too! Of course, I am still at work, which makes it a little harder.
I'm going to meet this cat tonight [link]
His current name is stupid and he may look too much like Perkins, but he's cute and it sounds like he might be a good match for Dita.

What is even happening?
I think East Coast (particularly in the Northeast) suburbs are different than those in a lot of the country. They were always sort of self-sustaining towns and small cities.

Yeah, I have no problem carrying $100 worth of stuff from Target. Although I usually take the bus home.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
The suburbs I lived in outside of Philly were not very walkable - one had a small walkable downtown but we didn't live anywhere near it.

I enjoyed the walkability of Bethlehem, PA just this weekend! But I don't know where non-students actually live.

If my mother just sent me an email saying that she just found out that one of a work friend's two daughters has breast cancer and that she isn't sure which, but she guess it's the one "who, like you, does not have the protection offered by child bearing", am I allowed to tell her to STFU?

The difference is pre-war and post-war. After WWII, suburbs were designed with the notion that you would need a car to live there. Sprawl started earlier in the East, but the suburbs that arose had central downtowns around commuter rail stations.
