Fire is scary.
Hey aurelia, did you know there's a jellyfish called Aurelia aurelia?
I did not know that. I should've used that for my lj name.
Hey! What do you two think you're doing? Fightin' at a time like this. You'll use up all the air!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

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 wonder how they got the animals out of the zoo? Like, how do you evacuate bats?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Apparently this fire is the result of arson, so Jesse gets her wish.
There, see? I put it out into the world, and presto!
Or whatever.

They evac'd the zoo?! Yikes. The bats were probably mostly sleeping.
You home now, Allyson?

Back when my dad lived out there, there was a fire in Griffith Park and all these morons apparently parked on the road leading up to the Observatory to watch, blocking the firefighting vehicles' access. So they brought in a bulldozer and shoved the cars down the hill. Something like that.

Randomly, because I'm watching today's Ellen show, I'll give American Idol one thing: At least the show is putting forth a lot of pop singers who can actually sing.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Now tagless for your comfort.
That story has me cracking up and wishing my dogs could talk. Fortunately, with two toddlers in the house, they rarely get to the "OMG, I AM SO STARVING!" stage. It's mostly, "How do I steal that cookie from the tiny person without making her cry and bringing down the wrath of the mommy person?" Or "Oh, random blueberry droppage! Nummy!"
Thankfully, I haven't caught them rummaging for random tubers.
