Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Well, I hope your current iPod is resuscitated. But if you get a new one I agree that it's worth the extra money for a larger drive.

Happy Birthday, Windsparrow!!!

Then I'm done smoking.

Woo Hoo!!! You can do it, Nicole!!!

I lasted about an hour and a half at a family party, when my mother suggested I leave before I hurt somebody. Families can be so annoying.

WTF, sj? How would you hurt them? Unless they were so annoying you finally took a crutch to them in intellectual self-defense? In which case, call me, I'll help you hide the bodies.

WTF, sj? How would you hurt them?

Because a couple of them were being so obnoxiously prejudiced that I was likely visibly fuming. I just can't stand it. Especially when I hear the words of the older generation coming out of my 17 year old cousin's mouth. He was a very bright, sweet child, and they have essentially ruined him.

Yes, this is what my mother was trying to avoid.

Well, can't blame a mom for wanting to save her kid some jail time. I, on the other hand, will plot with you for ways to get even with the bigots.

Thanks, for the record, this is not my whole family. Most of them are good people.

Oops...muscle spasm. ETA: Although the murderer in my book found today's lightweight crutches too titanium light for his blunt-instrument needs and used a hammer to finish.

Our wings are not tired.

iPod~ma to Cass. I haven't felt a need in my life for an iPod. I have adequate music sources at home, in my car, and at my desk. It hasn't been a burden to not have it elsewhere. I do have an old mp3 player that I used when I was doing road mileage. It only holds about 2 hours or so of music, but it is pretty rare for me to walk longer than that.

Yay for the anticipation of freedom from smoking Nicole! It's been so long since I smoked I don't even remember anymore. It's lovely to never care about it.

I, on the other hand, will plot with you for ways to get even with the bigots.

Oh goody! Can we subscribe to magazines that would offend?

As crazy making as my family can be I am grateful that I don't have that to deal with. I can remember being shocked when I encountered bigotry for the first time as an adult. I had read about such things and saw it on the news but it was just mind bogling to encounter it in real humans that I otherwise thought were normal.

Yeah,Cash, I know. Thank God for the interweb, too. So I didn't have to actually ask a human "So, could I hurt someone with that?" And I happened to read in college that hammers made the Top 10 impulse weapons list.
