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.

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

I hope we board soon. Apart from the whole leaving on time thing (we are scheduled for 9:00), the crack smell from the Cinnabon across the way is beginning to get to me.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The problem with 8:00 am isn't so much the alcohol as the consciousness.

True, Amych. I have trouble putting anything in other than coffee in my system before 10:00.

How have I never bought course grain sea salt before? It is so GOOD on fresh tomatoes. Between that and just discovering Cabrales cheese, I feel like I've been living in a cave food-wise.

Our wings are not tired.

I need to eat first thing I wake up. If you brought me a full breakfast in bed at 6AM, with mimosa, I would happily eat.

What is even happening?

Perkins, have a lovely trip.

Gronk. Matt make cave poster hungry.

crunch crunch couse salt is good stuff. OK, now I want a feta cheese and tomato omelette, with a sprinkling of crunchy sea salt. And a mimosa to wash it down. This is sad since my fridge is a cavern.

My brunch started snowballing after I fixed the first things. Originally I just wanted some cheese & crackers and a small tomato, but I ended up adding olives, half an avocado, and two leftover slices of veggie pizza.

Ah well, at least it was all healthy food.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Also, in re shoes: The polkadot shoes are quite horrible, except for the black ones with gray polkadots. Those are shoes to love and cherish forever. Possibly not as much as the ones Plei exclaimed over, but very very nearly so.

Also, as Hec noted upthread, there was exactly one costume Ann-Margret wore in The Pleasure Seekers that didn't make me cry for her. It was just criminal, really.

Also, so jealous of aurelia.

Hmmm. Apparently, today is my Day of Being So Very, Very Shallow.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

There is already a crowd in the airport bar.

It's pretty well established that I like a good drink from time to time, but isn't 8:00 a.m. pretty much always the wrong time for one?

Nope. Not if you hate flying. When I flew Cincy to SF for the first time (way back in 2001, I think), I flew first-class, b/c my almost-SiL was a flight attendant at the time, and I used one of her buddy passes. The flight was pretty early -- 9 a.m., I think -- and I really dislike flying, and first-class is all about the free booze, so I ordered an o.j. and Maker's Mark as soon as I sat down, and drank bourbon and o.j. the whole way there.

That is how flying should always be.
