What is even happening?

I posted it, yesterday, Gud. Creeepy, huh?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Do we think that ... in last night's Waking the Dead? Was it the season finale?
*I* think so. Mostly because the BBCA stuff tends to be grittier and less fantastical and none of his different injuries looked particularly survivable, certainly not all together .

I test drove the TSX, and it turned like a bus
This is sad. There are so few cars I think are interesting and attractive already, having one taken away for boggling performance issues is just mean. I mean, Acuras that I have driven in the past have been delightful, nimble and spunky.
IMO, bringing wine gives a message of "I'm nice!" with subtle overtones of "Let's get schnookered and make out!"
You should definitely bring wine.
is it bad if you put coffee grounds down a kitchen sink with a disposal?
I am told... Usually by my friends when I put their coffee grounds down the disposal. I have none, *and* I rent, what I do I know from disposal care?

Also there is a bug on the wall and no cat to chase and eat it. It's got wings and isn't within reach. I don't think I have the mad pouncing skillz to stop it. Where are my damn cats?

Cass--shoe. Shoes always work well as bug-killing instruments of death.

My cat found the Semi-Annual Big Honking Bug that shows up in my apartment a couple of times a year (always in the living room, and always as big as my thumb, if not bigger) a few days ago, and was having fun playing with it until I crushed it with a paper bag. I hated to stop her enjoyment, but all I could think about was what if it got away from her under the couch, and then reappeared on my head. Eww!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The BF suggested the Honda Accord EX V6 and the Altima.

The new car I find interesting is the Honda Fit. Inexpensive for a new car, very practical, good fuel economy, available with a stick, and I believe comes with all around airbags and anti-lock brakes standard. Not lots of power for a modern car, but enough for a stick.

But a very poor replacement for a V6 Jetta.

I'm hungry. I think someone should bring me sushi.

It got away. It was likely killable with just a tissue but I felt faster whacking the wall with my shoe. Not fast enough, cause it flew away, but still... Now I need to get the shoe scuff off of my wall. Or, you know, ignore it for a while.

Puppycat mourns everytime I kill a spider she wants to "catch" but they bite and her enjoyment isn't worth that much to me. I let her keep the gnats and she eventually eats them or loses them. Usually when they land on her nose.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

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

Thanks, Robin. I didn't really like my Accord, though it wasn't a V6. Never even thought about the Altima..
