Oh, also -- do they have Zipcar or similar where you are? That could be a good weekend alternative for you, so you aren't spending half the day waiting for the bus! My dad got rid of his car, and is loving the Zipcar. He can walk or take the subway most places, but sometimes you do need to drive.
Hands! Hands in new places!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In other news, I have a post-work dilemma. I'm going to a friend's birthday party, but not til later. I wish I had a funny little gift for her, but maybe not enough to go in the opposite direction to my favorite funny gift store. Although that would fill up the time. But would I end up spending too much money? Probably. Is buying anything completely unnecessary anyway? Yes. Hmmm.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Happy Birthday, Sheryl!!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Happy birthday, Sheryl!

Interesting. Not the kind of thing I'd normally post, but I just got the following email from Nike:
Thank you, ignorance.
Thank you for starting the conversation.
Thank you for making an entire nation listen to the Rutgers team's story. And for making us wonder what other great stories we've missed.
Thank you for reminding us to think before we speak.
Thank you for showing us how strong and poised 18- and 20-year-old women can be.
Thank you for reminding a sports nation that another basketball tournament goes on in March.
Thank you for showing us that sport includes more than the time spent on the court.
Thank you for unintentionally moving women's sport forward.
And thank you for making all of us realize that we still have a long way to go.
Next season starts 11.16.07
Kind of a cool take on the whole kerfuffle.
