What is even happening?

Sorry to nag, but I'm going to repost

HIVEMIND: Do P.C.s at airports have a special term, slang name, or brand name? What is generally the going rate (how many minutes for how many dollars)?

Bueller?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Was this part of the vitamin conversation, or a gift idea?

Either, or. Six-pack one way, 40 ounce the other.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

No clue, and no clue, sorry.

Were Hec and JZ's electric kettle posts a crosspost or post and follow-up?

Dana I like the shower caddy idea -- you can spend as much or as little as you want, over about say $15.

When I used one at an airport, it was in a bar. If you ordered a (overpriced, 'cause it's at an airport bar) drink, you got a free half hour. Well, the half-hour was the official time. If there wasn't a waiting list you could have the computer for as long as you wanted.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

And the paper bag doubles as gift wrap! Brilliant!

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

Try Laptop Alley for a brand name. Never mind, I think it's for plugging in or something.

For you ladies out there taking a certain type of pill, may I recommend the NuvaRing. My gyn put me on it after she took me off of the patch, and it's like the most convenient thing ever. Set it and forget it!

This is why I am the Empress.

And also an overinflated sense of importance. But whatever.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I think I will run by Bed, Bath, and Beyond tomorrow, and look at laundry/shower accessory things. I should be able to find something useful and easy to pack.

Thanks for all of the suggestions!

Also, The Container Store has really cute little shower totes that I now want desperately, despite the fact that I have zero need for them.

Thanks, everyone. I'm just going to call it a renta-P.C., I guess.
