Ugh Theo, sucktastic.
Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Happy Birthday, Lyra Jane!
Theo, that sucks. Car thieves are scum. I hope your get it back in decent shape and that the person that took it suffers blistering boils or some such cosmic retribution.

Man, people are all pissy and snippy here today. (edit: AT WORK)
I think everyone needs a nap.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think everyone needs a nap.
Either I need a nap, or gravity is unusually strong today.

Re: Rescue Me, it would be a nice reversal if the hooker with a heart of gold who seems to be scamming Lou, really does have a heart of gold. And yeeesh with the bringing the pain.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I talked to my regular car repair place, and they do steering column replacements, et cetera, all the time, which means that I may well be able to go through them when the time comes. This comforts me quite a bit, since I trust them -- funny how you cling to something like that, you know?
I've been tending to think of my car as unlikely to be stolen -- how many young car thieves know how to drive standard these days? Evidently the joy-riders in my neighborhood do.
makes mental note to purchase The Club before reacquiring repaired car....

They need to make a club that actually clubs the thieves.

I didn't know that about Hondas (that the parts are worth lots of $$) but I remember that on Berkeley Street in Somerville, the only person I saw who had a Club on their wheel, and used it all the time, was our downstairs neighbor, who also had an old Honda. He may have had a similar lesson... the neighborhoods are very close, if not technically the same...

Wolfram, that's exactly the twist I'm hoping for; unfortunately, RM seems to delight in "worst case scenario", as last night proved aplenty. The preview for next week's finale looks pretty hairy too.

I wonder if I should start worrying about my rusty old Mustang II. I do get the occasional "Wow, you drive a Mustang" remark, which always makes me go, "I drive a Mustang *II*." Generally considered a very poor relation by the Mustang afficianados. I never lock the thing, because I don't have anything in the car worth stealing and I don't want to have to replace a window after potential thieves find that out for themselves.
