Books? Snacks for the plane? Sunscreen?
Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've got books. El-Al gives a ridiculous amount of food on the plane, and it's a red-eye anyway. I do need sunscreen, which I don't have, but I'll buy some tomorrow or Wednesday.

Hey, is it true that the security screening process is much more stringent on El Al if you are not Israeli/Jewish

Well, I'd assume it would be more stringent if you're not an Israeli citizen. I don't really know beyond that -- I've only taken El-Al once, and I got about five or ten minutes worth of questions, which seemed to be about the norm for my group (all Jewish young adults on a trip organized by a well-known Isreali-American group.) I didn't notice what sort of screening anyone else got.
On the trip back last time, one of the security people asked one of our guides if the tour group had given us anything that would be in our bags, and she said that the group itself hadn't, but one of the places we visited gave up all t-shirts. They opened each of our bags and searched for the t-shirt and shook it out and examined it a bit before letting us go.

My brother and his friend got seriously searched and then separated and questioned. They were flying to Moscow, though, so I wouldn't doubt if that accounted for it.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I was going to blow off the final $200 we owe friends and use my BMW paycheck to get my haircut.
I resisted the temptation and have paid them off. After over a year of owing them. It feels good.
I'm treating myself to a new color and a flat iron.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
My nape is not showing. Now I'm all paranoid I'll disappoint the SFistas. It's #3 behind the accent and that I won't dress right.
Also, so I've relayed the story earlier about my one friend being so nice.
Now I've had another friend, the one who took care of me when I was going through some other crap, who I apparently drunk dialed last night, asking if he needs to come over (it will take him at least an hour) or can he send our other best friend.
I love my girlfriends. I made them all goddesses because each and every one of them rock beyond reason. My boys? They get all mama bear, and I LOVE THEM! How are women not throwing themselves at their feet?

As long as you are sporting gouchos, you will be fine.

I will bring them! I'm Aimeelike in my goucho pimping. They're comfy pants with the bottoms cut off and cuter. What's not to love?
ETA I live in Dallas, so I own no shoes save Croc flip flops that aren't heels. That's gonna cost me, right?
