Our wings are not tired.

Yikes! That is insane msbelle. May some rational choice appear.

Thanksgiving has always been a big deal for my family. I've done the hosting most times the last couple decades or so. This year I booked a camp site and marina slip in Key West. We will drag the boat down there with tons of junk food and air mattresses and so forth. I'm thinking fresh snapper with key lime pie might be on the menu.

I just wanted to get away. Told the rest of the family they could come to the keys if they want, or figure out some other plan for themselves. 4 days and nights! Not exactly roughing it since the campground has pool, and spa, and tiki bar, etc. But sleeping in a tent, or on the boat! I can't wait.

I think amych should do housewarming/thanksgiving for orphans, and cook something sophisticated and French. And I'll come eat it.

Also, in fair use news I learned that the Looni has been put on the short list of people to sue by publishers, so that's why we're cracking down on e-reserved big time.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

I want Laura's T-giving!

3:30 AM. I'm not sure if it mightn't be easier to just sleep in a hallway...

TAR does it all the time!

Um. Waking up late + errands= oh so very late to work.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

flea, I've been hearing rumbles of the lawsuit threat for a little while now. And the thing is, it's reserves! 90% of them aren't going to read it anyway!

Please tell me that making things non-printable isn't part of the proposed crackdown, because I will have to go make angry gestures at the second floor in that case.

(As for Thx, we should get together! But sophisticated and French ain't happening until I catch up on sleep.)

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I want Laura's T-giving!
I just want to live there. It's a nice sounding life. And? Skips my family drama and I am all over that.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I've decided to just say no to family drama this year, especially since I didn't get any time off. Thanksgiving will be spent in Big Bear, and Christmas in Belmont or maybe SF.

eta: Woohoo, I'm taking a sick day.

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

Hooray Big Bear!

I'm making a metric assload of mashed potatoes. Wheeee!!!

And this year, I have a laptop.
