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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Lived there for 6 months cooking on an alcohol burning camp stove. Good times.

Last time I was hunting, some woman tried to get me to see a place which only had a hot plate and one of those dorm fridges. She also went on about how her current tenant was leaving because he was upset at her for coming in to his place (which I suspect was a room with a bathroom, and not a studio as advertised) unannounced. Needless to say, I begged off from even seeing the place. shudders

Who in the name of all that is holy (almost spelled wholly) when asked whether or not one paragraph of marketing copy looks good says, "I don't know. There may be some ideas and things I want to implement."

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

Near where I work. When I heard the initial stories, I meant to go look, but I never suspected the truth.

Hi, everybody!

I just wanted to pass a quick word of thanks for all the kind well-wishes in the last thread! Abe's doing great now, but we're all dog-tired. I managed to push back my go-back-to-work date from tomorrow until Monday, so we'll have a few more days of family togetherness. Hooray!

What is even happening?

Hayden, was he not doing great?

Congrats again on your new addition to the family. I hope your dw is well.

ita, that's just sad. I can understand why they killed it, because that's scary, but what a shame. I wonder if they'll ever determine its origins.

Ah, now there's something "we" need to do. I'm not sure exactly what because my direction basically consists of him saying "We need to get some stuff together on that." He knows all the "something" about the "that" so, I'm basically waiting for him to go through his files to come back and dictate it to me, so that I can then write it down. Would it not work more efficiently to cut out the middle man (me)?

So I'm thinking Cordy's apartment search woes in "Rm w/a Vu" resonated pretty strongly with you?

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

hayden, congratulations! Glad to hear you have a few more days before work.

Not just a tiger, but an old, tired tiger. That's bizarre.

We had a jaundice scare last week, Cindy. And he's been colicky at night -- I had the midnight to 5 am shift of rocking & singing to the baby. But his bilirubin counts are well within normal ranges now, and he's actually managed to get through the last two nights without inconsolable crying. I got 5 hours of unbroken sleep! My wife only got 3, though, 'cause he still needs to eat; he's just not losing his temper as much.

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

Pro'lly decided to go out in a blaze of glory.
