I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Do you guys still have two different sell by dates on your milk? Like, one date and then another IN NYC date that's a few days earlier?

Yep.

Thank you, Jesse! That's what I was hoping you'd say.

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

So, if I'm desperately bored and blah, hitting reload on the BRQG until I find something funny I said -- that's an okay method of validating my self-worth, right?

Hey, one time I was needing validation, I went through all the other threads too and collected all the stuff I'd written that cracked me up but no one COMM'd, and put them all into a Word doc. So, y'know, there's self-validation, and then there's filling a mudbath with self and rolling around in it naked. (Not literally. I find I use it most at work.)

In conclusion, pandas:

That's just fantastic.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I just got 5 posts in a row from the BRQG discussing Yoo-Hoo. I don't even like the stuff, and now I'm craving it.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who does this. I was starting to feel like the Sally Field of the b.org.

We like you, Cash. We really do.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

For the construction-ish minded:

We have an old footlocker we'd like to make into a toy box for Em. Obvously, we need to figure out a way for the top to not slam down and chop her fingers, toes or head off. We can't put one of those "stay-open" hinge things on it, so I'm trying to figure out a way to keep it open all the time. How could I do that, besides wedge something in there? We can't just take the top off - it's old and really put together well.
