I think your towel will be okay Sumi.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If a person, hypothetically, leaves a dish towel on a radiator and then goes off to work, what is the likelihood that the radiator will cause the dish towel to burst into flames?

Zero. The hottest a radiator can get is 212, the boiling point of water. (That's one of the advantages of using hot water to heat something.)

I just have a mild squick about being able to purchase a statue of Buddha at the same place I buy my lightbulbs and toilet paper.

See, I'm so used to an aisle in the grocery store containing novena candles, it doesn't make me blink.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I'm so used to an aisle in the grocery store containing novena candles,

I'm used to the novena candles too, but for whatever reason, they don't feel as odd. Maybe because the candles are dual-purpose (light AND worship, in one convenient package!)

tommyrot, I'm glad court went well!

Well, um... i have to go back in two months. To give me time to get all the paperwork straightened out. There is still a possibility of jail, but it looks to be very remote, unless I insult the judge and tell him he's too much of a pussy to give me jail time.

But really, his whole attitude was that this is just a minor thing (because it stems from an unpaid out-of-state speeding ticket).

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

that's 'cuz it's Global Bazaar. My bad.

Or mine. It's the llama's fault It was too cute for me to listen properly.

I need to go to Target this weekend.

eta: I'm glad it went okay, Tommyrot. I hope the next session will.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Congrats, Hil!

Colin Farrell. Meh. He doesn't disgust me or anything, he just doesn't ping on my lustometer. And it's not an eyebrow thing, because I think Peter G. is kinda hot.

Good luck with the New Exciting Snow, northeastern US folks. We're expecting freezing rain in NC this Sunday. I think I'd rather have snow. Not 2-3 feet of it, but still. I hate freezing rain -- you can't go out and play in it.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

All I know is that Cost Plus gives me Coffee Crisps, single-serving packages of Nutella, and cheap decent wine, so Target's going to have to work it to break my loyalty.

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

Target has a very antiseptic feel for me. So even if the stuff is good, I don't think I'd like being there in the same cozy way I can get from Cost Plus.

Hey! It rained here!

Trust my rage

I prefer a cleaned-up Colin Farrell, but really I'd take him in any condition.
