Shit's all sorts of different now.

Allyson, I love the Frances books and the David books. Emeline got 2 of the David's for Christmas.

And also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY ITA!

Happy Birthday, ita!

I'm with Nilly and the Harold love. In fact, I loved that book so much, it's probably the first one I ever wrote in. It's still in my parent's house somewhere.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I purchased this luggage when I was home. It's making me very happy. And people at the airport kept complimenting me on it.

What is even happening?

Allyson, during nephew-fest, did you happen to catch on the news that Menino was trying to stop Southie people from saving their shoveled-out parking spaces?

(oh that is cute luggage)

YES!

My favorite part was an old woman putting a trash can in her shoveled out space and saying, "What does he care? He has a DRIVEWAY."

It's tradition. You shovel your space, put your trash can in it, and it's yours. Perhaps it would be easier for Menino to get it if everyone just put a fucking flag in their spot and claimed it for Spain.

I posted it the other day, but you were still home. Jimmy Kelly said he's got more barrels than the city has trucks. And one guy, who had replaced a toilet, and couldn't get the city to take the old one, used the old one as his place holder. He said either they take it and he wins, or they don't, and he still has his spot, and wins.

I love street smarts. I don't have them. They make my knees weak.

Watcing the Mars thing on NOVA (hi lori!)

Am cracking up over the montages of yawning engineers and scientists and crapass junkfood (ice cream bars) and cranky ass fits. I know these people (not literally, but... )

I work with them (not this group, a different one- one less prone to immediate ah-hahs and fits ) and was raised amidst them (including planetary! But Jupiter's red spot, not mars.)

Allyson! Thanks for the My Aunt Came Back link. Must find an opportunity to give it to MY nephew...
