Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

but I love the pyramid by deepest twilight.

Yeah, that was awesome--the sound and light show was totally cheesy, and yet it was still amazing. I wished I had a tripod, though--there were a lot of night shots that would've been better/less blurry that way! Things to know for next time. (Screw "once in a lifetime trip"! I wanna go again!)

ut did you ever put up a link to any photos from the visit to Egypt?

Yep, Fay--I put it in Beep Me! (Oh, good, you found them)

All I got where two shots of a spiky haired blond, the first of which featured another cute girl who isn't you

The other "cute girl" (not the blonde) is Juliana!

Who is spiky haired blond?

Heh. That would be the HOTT part of the weekend (as opposed to HOT, which there was also plenty of)

My office bldg. is having a blood drive today, and I wasn't allowed to donate because of all the gay sex with druggies who lived in England and ate a lot of beef

Sounds like fun, Teppy!

Congrats on owning a new camp, Laura! Good to see you back!

igure out if there is anything that would help with the cramps that are waking me up out of a sound sleep every month

Go on the pill and skip the periods altogether?

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

That looks fabulous, Laura. And your boys are so cute.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Those Keene kids are creepy as hell.

So far in my NC visit, I've had:

  • Chick-Fil-A
  • Fried okra (twice)
  • Grits (three times)
  • BBQ pork ribs
  • Hush puppies
  • Black eyed peas
  • Homemade banana pudding
  • Cheerwine
  • Collard greens

Still to get:

  • Boiled peanuts

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Bah! Someone tell me quick that my cat will hide under the bed of her new parents for a couple weeks, but emerge unscarred and completely not missing me.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

mmmmmm boiled peanuts

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

Lilty, it may not even be a couple of weeks. If the new owners are nice and know how to hang with cats, your cat will be happy.

Laura, LOVE the pictures! What a fun vacation, and what a charming and adorable bunch of fellows you live with!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I saw zillions of new messages and freaked in the OhMyGodWhatHappenedIsEveryoneOkayOrDidSomeoneGetMarried kind of way. Then I realized it was just that the thread is dying. So I skimmed.

8:15 is a reasonable bedtime for a grown-up, right?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

8:15 is a reasonable bedtime for a grown-up, right?

that's the best thing about being a grown up - you get to decide.

The thread is dying and we all come to mourn it...

I have a home! (for a given value of home, which is a place to stay until Hubby recuperates and we can find our own place)

Our friend Ron bought a townhouse when he was more gainfully employed, and he's struggled with finances for the past several months. Hubby went to him when our first option fell through, and tonight, after a chat with Hubby regarding how to cope with the cats and sharing a kitchen and such, he said, "Come ahead."

It's right next to a train yard (but I love trains), and he's giving us the master bedroom, which he wasn't using anyway. He's a horrific housekeeper, but that just means we're going to take over some of those chorse in exchange.

He didn't want to discuss it till after the surgery, but Hubby pointed out that he didn't want me sitting in a surgical waiting room fretting over not having a roof over our head on top of wondering what was happening in the OR. Ron said that made sense. This gives us a month and a half to get packed and ready and for Hubby to be mostly mobile.

In a DVD extra to my life's adventures, Hubby went in on Friday to get the blood work done for the surgical screenings, and the nurses said, "Oh, but your surgery's been cancelled. The insurance company ruled it non-essential and cancelled it." Hubby asked which lawyer did they recommend he contact, or should he just call the state and report the accountants for practicing medicine without a license, that they would countermand the orders of the best neurosurgeon in the state. After some waffling and panic, the surgery was reinstated.

If the gods insist on being bored, can't they amuse themselves by making me the unexpected heir to a hitherto-unknown rich aunt?
