Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

No reason you can't make a corset out of duct tape.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

So what's keeping your intestines from flopping down to your ankles? Surface tension?

Actually I am told that pelvis bones are good for this. Also all those ligaments and stuff that attach to the bones. To get all gross, people with abdomen-crush injuries sometimes do have internal organ movement, which is generally a sign that the poor smushed dude wasn't going to survive anyway, and definitely won't now.

Katie, I am not, in fact, working today! Which is why I can post here. Although in a minute I need to go take the dog for a long walk, and then take my mother shopping.

Yesterday? Was long.

6:30 am, Thursday: wake up and finish packing.
8:00 am, get on bus to Auckland.
12:30 pm, get off bus in Auckland.
12:45 pm, put luggage in locker in bus station, go off shopping in Auckland.
3:00 pm, realize never locked locker, race back to bus station up several steep hills, discover bags untouched, including friend's laptop, passport, and plane tickets.
3:15 pm, retire to Irish bar across the street for restorative beer.
4:15 pm, go back to bus station for bus to airport.
6:00 pm, finally arrive at airport.
6-7:30 pm, go through several levels of security, discover that there are no TimTams to be purchased in the airport, get disconsolate.

Then we flew for ten hours and arrived in LA the morning of the evening we left. And then there was another flight to SFO, and then a train ride, and a phone call, and then I finally arrived home around 4 pm on Thursday, after traveling for about 27 hours, I think.

Long day.

Today, I do laundry. And shower. And stuff.

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

The mesentery is also key for the insides to not become outsides.

Ya gotta prefer Old School Garofalo to her current look.

Old School all the way. Oh yeah? And who was busting my chops about blonde boys? And yet, dark-haired Janeane is gorgeous.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

discover that there are no TimTams to be purchased in the airport

This is not quite as crazy as the major airport I once flew with that did not sell gum, but it's up there. No TimTams? What's wrong with them?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Dublin airport doesn't sell gum. They were sick of cleaning it off tables and floors.

What's wrong with them?

I'm guessing TimTams are not Kiwi enough, sigh. But I had great plans to buy a case (or at least several boxes), and saved my cash to do so, and ended up flying home with $10NZ in my pocket instead. Sigh.

Want TimTams! We only found the Tia Maria ones once, but they were awesome.

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

Lee, you should switch the duct tape out for a corset.

Hmm. I have to admit I'm tired of never being able to get the tape gunk off.
