The Fug girls are, for once, wrong. Camilla wore the Best Hat Ever.
Agreed.
Take jobs as they come -- and we'll never be under the heel of nobody ever again. No matter how long the arm of the Alliance might get, we'll just get ourselves a little further.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh good, Perkins. We should be in touch after they leave. You may be tired by then.

I think the Windstar (and minivans in general) are WAY cooler than Explorers (and SUVs in general).

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Burrell, if you email me the best way to reach you, I'll call/email you when they are done and the cats and I are recovered.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I want a Forrester, DH wants an Oddysey.
I love my Forester. It's big enough to carry around what I need it to carry, but small enough that I don't feel like I'm taking over the road. And, for a small SUV/large station wagon, it has decent gas mileage (22-23 city; 24-26 highway).
Also, living in Chicago, it's great on snowy roads.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Forester was one of the cars we were looking at when we bought the VUE. don't think it would have been bad

Mostly lurking...
I'm home. I'm exhausted and in tears again, but I did it. We (my parents, therapist and I) decided that the iPod is still on. I spent much of the Mountain Tales class saying "lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala" to myself while the class discussed the masculinity (sp?) of the rape. I spoke to the prof after class about my late assignments. She understands that I was not prepared for the graphic nature of the class and is cutting me some slack. She told me to get the stuff that's behind to her when I can and to try to stay caught up on the other stuff first. Oh, and I'm *definitely* not watching a horror movie. She's going to let me watch a comedy instead.
Thanks so much everyone for the thoughts and encouragement.

What is even happening?
vw, that's great. Not the being so upset part, but the perservering through it, and choosing to talk to your prof, and get everything ironed out as to how you move forward.
I'm so proud of you. Two iPods, says I.

We're gonna be a two iPod household. Is that good enough? ;)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm not sure of the exact date when they changed, but sometime in the past couple of years, Subaru decided that they'd rather be making light trucks with great emissions ratings than big cars with lousy emissions ratings, and so new Forresters are currently being built on truck frames, making them real SUVs, instead of big boxy station wagons. (Because I'm nowhere near being in the market for a car, I haven't looked into exactly how this has affected the safety/mileage ratings, but if I were buying a car, I'd be looking at used Forresters rather than new ones.)
