Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I am going straight home. I may stop at Coffee Bean after I park my car. But isnt that pretty much straight home?

Yeah, I'll allow that.

I think Ruby misses you, is all.

They don’t know you like we do.

Mebbe you could write them a note for me? "Dear cable company and Fox affiliate: Stop being buttheads. Monique has sites she'll need to update."

My dad and my brother are both getting satellite, though, in response. There's an offer on the table to funnel copies of 24 and TV's hit Drive to me in exchange for Dirt and Meerkat Manor.

Yeah, surprised me, too.

I met a woman who was having monoamniotic twins.

I initially read this as monochromatic twins. Apparently, I only pay attention to what I read for work, when I'm copy editing.

Monique, you forgot to add the Hot Wheels. Finger puppets and hot wheels.

I was actually trying to figure out how to accurately represent the driving in TV's hit Drive! Excellent solution!

Aw. I'll write a set report for you.

And now I wanna make a hotwheel set of all the cars!

I don't know when I'll catch up in Natter, so...

Happy Birthday, ita! I think what I would wish for you is obvious, so please consider it wished.

Also, congratulations Kat and lori!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oh hey! They have a Chevy Impala!

We had a '65 Impala all during my growing up days. That thing lasted forever, and indeed, that is the car we drove cross country in. (The back seat footwells were perfectly sized for a little kid to sleep in. I loved it being curled up like a gerbil down there with a pillow and a blanket, warm from the engine, and listening to the murmur of my parents voices up front.)

It didn't look like that Hot Wheel though.

It did have a horn that played the "See the U-S-A / In Your Chevrolet..." theme though. (It had been a showroom demo car.)

And a Lincoln Navigator!

Ima have a hella time finding a Ford Taurus, though.
