Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

I hope you like people watching.

That is one of the few virtues of the experience. I'll wave to you!

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

That's not porn, is it?

Would that it were.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

At O'Hare anything is possible.

There is Versaille, among others. But there's no way to get to any of them until Friday.

information libertarian

In further "help me for my financial acumen, not to say my brain, has left me" news: I may have lost my wallet. Last seen paying for groceries last night at 6:30 pm. Could not be found this morning, nor now, after a pretty exhaustive search. But I was so tired last night that I could have put it away someplace weird, like with the frozen peas (though I checked there). Or the baby could have put it someplace weird. I called Kroger and the PetSmart next door and they don't have it. We called the bank and the credit card and there's no unusual activity. To cancel the cards and suffer hassles galore and risk the wallet turning up amongst the crackers tomorrow, or to wait and risk that someone is waiting a week to use my credit card?

You can always call to cancel later, and you're still not liable, I wouldn't think.

One Christmas break in college, I cancelled my credit cards TWICE. First my purse got locked in the closet at the home of someone I didn't know, but I did get it back. The next week, it actually got stolen from the bowling alley. @@

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

They sell porn in the SF airport. Not just mags either-- whole books!
