Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

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

I have to go to PT, and then krav (if PT allows) and then home to finally cut my damned hair and bleach it. The 4 year old at the house we stayed at in Nairobi never learnt my name. Called me "the one with the grey hair."

Yikes.

Okay, here are all my colour Kenya pics worth showing. I'll probably hand in the B+W this weekend.

What is even happening?

I've never noticed a gender bias on halfwit or nitwit, myself. And riffing on names for insults -- well, it's an ancient art, still in fine form.

This was the perfect set-up for someone to call you bo-****, but you've intimidated us all out of it, oh grey-haired one.

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

Nope. It's next week, and I am pretty sure it is moving to Wednesdays.

Arghh. I shouldn't look at ita's pictures until I get home. Want to look NOW though.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I took Thursday and Friday off for a little mini vacation. Serenity premiere thing is on Thursday, and I'm still in sort of a bad place about going.

But hopefully I'll get to finish my book at some point.

Also, due to cutbacks at work I'll probably not get a raise or a bonus this year.

I hope it saves them a lot of money to kick a secretary in the gut.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm a sucker. '89 has Tone Loc, FYC, Anita Baker, Bon Jovi, and for when you really need a laugh, an assload of Vanilli.

Now there's a collective noun I can get behind.

Wait. Let me rephrase that.

I saw a white squirrel in Minneapolis once. And just a few weeks ago I saw a black squirrel in southern Wisconsin.

There was an albino squirrel roaming Hershey's America Zoo. I finally cornered it at the food court.

I don't know. I lost my rationale, but I was on a roll, so I went with it. In this case, maybe it itched this time, because it's so obviously derived from her name, but halfwit and nitwit, etc., also just seem to be used against women more than men, politicians excepted.

If it helps, we can also refer to Lleyton Halfwit. Though I think Lleyton's Lost-it might work better.

No, Derick, I do not remember speaking to anyone about the problem of the short penis.

What intrigues me is that he's apparently boasting that his penis is now behaving like a tumour. Has it spread to his brain? Yes. Yes, I think we're in a position to make that call.
