Wal-Mart had em on Black Friday for, I think $6.
No idea.
Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
does anyone have any ballpark estimations of how much lobbyists cost?
How long a jail term are you willing to risk?

Weekend plans (all contingent on storm and related disruptions): tonight: my friend's are coming in from Lunenburg and we are going to see Claire's Hat, an unreleased documentary by Bruce MacDonald. (Of Hard Core Logo fame.) Then possibly out for drinks.
Tomorrow: Farmer's Market, brunch with my friends and my friend's parents, shopping, and in the evening a cocktail party at my boss' that I couldn't figure an excuse to get out of this year. (Soemwhere megan is saying "AH-ha.")
Are my guests staying another night? I don't know. Maybe more drinks with them if they are still around.
Somewhere in here I have to squeeze in watching the last ep of Season 1 veronica Mars and then return the DVD to the Video Store.
Sunday: My Co-op's AGM and potluck in the evening, so I'll likely be cooking this afternoon. Maybe entertaining guests if they are still here. I hope to be home ot collapse and watch GA.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I once became what I briefly thought was hopelessly trapped in a sweaty sports bra in a locker room. That was when I switched to the sort of sports bra that has hooks-and-eyes.
Aimee, you are not fat and stupid. The fatness is in your head and the stupidness is unpossible. You're attractive and funny; you have a great husband; and you have one of the cuter children in the world.

Thanks for the hairpats, everyone.
I've not met any of MM's co-worker's, so I'm kinda nervous.

Years and years ago on tabletalk, there was a horrifically funny recounting of a tragic encounter with one of those slimming garments. I suspect it is a far too common phenomenon.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Aimee, I think shopping for those things requires including close friends to help. They are truly evil.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Lobbyists cost a lot more than $6, but I don't know how much. Probably in the hundreds of thousands for a 3- or 6-month campaign.
I got stuck in it. I couldn't get out of it.
I find those things frightening, almost as frightening as strapless bras. Same rubbery-sticky stuff; same "okay, wait, if I can't reach the clasp, there is no way at all for me to get this thing off myself??"

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I took Hec's book with me to the bar last night where it was coveted by Mr. Jane's coworkers and a music critic from our weekly rag. I will show it off to our musically inclined friends tonight- so Hec, be prepared for sales to shoot up by at least 8.
Sweet! I totally need to start sending you kickbacks.
