When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

They don't have them here. What's up with that?

That does suck. I do believe they're only in CA, though. Right?

I would hug you if I were in town, Alibelle, and probably feed you pizza too.

Aww, thanks. I would appreciate it, as I do the sentiment.

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

Aww, my parents sent me a bday present. China from Shreve Crump and Low. They're plates with scenes from olde boston. Public Gardens, Town Hall, blah blah blah beeeooteeful.

I have no idea what to do with them. I'd display if not for earthquakes, and I certainly can't use them for daily use.

I think this is a hint that i should marry a nice man, move back East, and buy a hutch.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Allyson, you can put them in plate hangers and hang them up. If they are fastened securely to the wall, they are pretty earthquake-proof. The SiL has a large collection of plates on her wall which survived the last big quake in San Luis Obispo, when the stuff on her shelves got broken.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Best wishes for speedy Emmett recovery!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Poor Emmett! But remember, chicks dig scars.

We have a fairly dumb cat.

My last cat was so dumb he brought in a LIVE mouse into the house. Not to play with it and kill it. Just brought it in and lost it. DH had to catch it. I then made him walk four blocks to the park and set it free. That being said, Bogey was my favorite.

THANKS! I'll have to hang them and send my mom a pic. She was so excited about it, she kept saying, "this is something really nice that you'd never splurge on and you'll pass them on to your daughter."

Um. I have no daughter. Again, I think it's a gift/hint.

gift/hint. Still a gift. I like pretty plates. I've seen Martha do some kick ass displays in her magazine.

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

Your mother is nicer than mine. I get no gifts with my hints.

My TiVo is wireless! So exciting! Almost makes up for my size issues internet shopping for bras.
