The athletic clothing company Under Armour is going public.
Can't wait for their next corporate meeting. The guy who looks like Vernon Reid on steroids will scream, "WE MUST PROTECT SHAREHOLDER VALUE!!!!"
Wash: Captain, didn't you know kissin' girls makes you sleepy? Mal: Well sometimes I just can't help myself.

Silence means security silence means approval

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I don't remember being MTV in the early 1980s, either.
And yet you were! How do you explain that?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Mmm. UnderArmour. Love the stuff.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am continually amazed at you west coasters who always seem to be awake at ungodly hours. Do you never sleep?
I know, right?
Jesse-- is there any more to this story?
Not really. He (Pacey from TV's Dawson's Creek) was at a party thrown by the theater company she (my friend) has been working for. She turned down the blow.
I could not figure out who that was!
The "Fug on..." headline is a shoutout to "Wild on..." By which I mean, Taradise.

Oh, and GOOD LUCK, New Orleans-istas and families.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Oh, and GOOD LUCK, New Orleans-istas and families.
What Jesse said.

One advantage to getting up early is that when you realize after a few hours of futzing around that the closest thing you have to food in the house is the remainder of the peaches you bought at last week's farmer's market, you can run to the store and still be early enough to miss the Saturday rush.
Also, nap time comes that much sooner.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
-t, are you guys evacuating with the hurricane?
Just saw this, Dana. Yes we are. I think we're leaving around 3am tomorrow morning. We reserved a room near one of the Houston airports for tomorrow and Monday nights. You folks are getting out, I hope?
Glad to see you're okay, Laura!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Still watching the Current channel. It's completely goofy, but that makes it kind of appealing. And by 90s earnestness I do mean the kind of, "the economy will always be strong, young people have invented a new world-changing paradigm, peace is breaking out all over, global unity rah rah" that collapsed in 2001/02.
It's adorable!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
We reserved a room near one of the Houston airports for tomorrow and Monday nights.
Oh, good. Call us if you need anything. We're fairly close to Hobby, but I'm also not all that far from Intercontinental at work, and I'll be at work Monday.
You folks are getting out, I hope?
As far as I know. I haven't talked to them today, but yesterday, the plan was Meridian, MS, and Memphis if necessary. It's not my parents that I'm worried about, but my grandparents and great-aunt. And the dog.
