Hey Steph, do you still have sawhorses or some sort of other substantial standing frames or equipment out in your yard? It occurred to me that if you wanted to maybe make the place more worrisome to people who might be casing the neighborhood, asking someone from the police force or a gun range for some used paper targets to pin up might do the trick.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Man, I am so continually dehydrated. I dunno what's up with that. I cannot get enough to drink. And I'm at the ER, so they're about to make that worse. But I do really like the little bottles of apple juice.
I can overhear a cop talk about double tap training. Shoot till they're down. Don't shoot unless you want them not to get up.

Aw! Then I won't bother. Even if it isn't as cold this year.
Yeash, I slept with both arms stretched above my head for reasons unexplained. Achy, achy.

That's killer on the shoulders.
Dehydration is bad.
Nudgy students re: papers is very bad (I'm up at 4 AM grading).
msbelle, I cannot picture the image you are looking for and the only platinum blonde model from the 80s I can really recall is Sara Stockbridge, but she wasn't pixie cut.

Who's doing an Advent Caledar this year? We just started our Playmobil calendar last night and Matilda is jazzed about it.

We never had Advent calendars when I was a kid. I swear, my parents were the most unimaginative couple ever, who pretty much thought that if they provided a backyard and a swingset their kids were set for entertainment forever after.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I updated Dylan's iPod with the Angry Birds Seasons Christmas level that opens like an Advent calendar. Since we're Jewish, I'm assuming that's close enough?

My mom just called, which got my heart racing. I thought something had gone awry with my dad. But no. She forgot about the time difference.
