Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
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)?
No clue, and no clue, sorry.

Dana I like the shower caddy idea -- you can spend as much or as little as you want, over about say $15.
What is generally the going rate (how many minutes for how many dollars)?
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.
Either, or. Six-pack one way, 40 ounce the other.
And the paper bag doubles as gift wrap! Brilliant!
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.

Seconding the NuvaRing love.
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.

Crosspost. I loved and revered my electric kettle and got OMG so much use out of it (my dorm also forbade toaster ovens and mini-microwaves and such, but automatic-shutoff electric kettles were permitted).
I'm with Plei on the Omega-3 pills. No one mentioned, didn't take them, kids seem just fine. Of course, I eat a lot of (low mercury) fish, but also I tend to place more value on the supplements you take to avoid known problems (helllooo folic acid!) than supplements that purport to "improve." The science for the first tends to be a lot more reliable than the science on the second.
Even with breast feeding. I mean, I am totally pro-breast feeding, but the science behind the claims that it improves intelligence? Totally weak.
