Although they're quite different and a craving for one would not be satisfied by the other.
Ouhh! Snacks! The secret to any successful migration! Who's up for some tasty fried meat products!?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Ann, that's a ferret.
True, Debet. Lilt is definitely in the fruity soda category.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Emily, I hope the week coming up is better, and I'm glad your principal is being supportive.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Question for y'all: Does anyone know how I could get access to a sewing machine for a few hours, wihtout owning one? Like, do places ever...rent them? I would love to be able to go somewhere and be like "OK, I wanna rent a machine for two hours" and be forced to do a project and clean up. I dont' want to OWN one, because OMG the mess I don't need to make, but it'd be nice to be able to USE one every once in a while...thoughts?
I've not heard of sewing machine rental. Doesn't mean it's not available, just that I haven't heard of it. What you really need to do is convince a friend that s/he needs to buy one, then go over and borrow it.

Heh. Well, that's one way to do it, but my friends around here have as little space and time as I do, mostly...plus, part of the benefit of going somewhere would be the "OK, if I book this time, I HAVE to go do it!", whereas with a friend, it's not the same urgency.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I don't know, meara, but it sounds like a good idea -- I've been wanting and yet not getting a sewing machine for the exact same reasons. (Also, because I really have nowhere to put one, but I'd kind of have some room if I just cleaned up a bit.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Erin, there might be jogging, but probably in place. They'll teach you stance, basic strikes, and maybe a defense against chokes or the like.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
meara, my sister says that Michael's craft stores have various clubs (beading, weaving, etc.) where people show up and craft together. Maybe they have sewing machines available as well?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
The Joanne's fabrics around here used to have machines for classes - and I was told you could rent time on them

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Joann's does offer classes and they have machines available. I don't know if you can rent them, but you could look and see what the class schedule is. There could be a class that is making something you want to make.
When I took a class there, it was a skirt class. We could choose any skirt pattern that had an elastic waistband (beginner class, no zippers!). So, there was flexibility in what we did.
