Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Her injuries sound awful. Clearly not as bad as they could have been, but fractured vertebrae? Eeek!

Oiks. That sounds like no fun to fall down marble steps.

Get-Well-Cupcakes are the awesome.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

My legs flipped out from underneath me, and while I was in the air, I had the thought, 'This isn't going to end well.' "

Jenna sounds like one of us. And Zach Braff is pretty awsome for doing that.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

When I get up to San Francisco I should do a Buffista book reading mashup with Hec and deb.

Party time!

Trust my rage

Does anyone know if Southwest still does that cattle call seating?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Yep. Well, on most flights. I know they're experimenting on a few others.

Punishingly Intricate

Does anyone know if Southwest still does that cattle call seating?

It's not really cattle call. You're broken into groups with letters assigned based on when you got your boarding pass (which you can get online like 24 hours before you fly).

Also, you still get to board earliest if you are traveling with little kids or have other mobility issues.

I love Southwest.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

And, um, what are "fake-sign-language hands"?

I think that is what I do in the normal course of speaking - or at least I do according to juliana.

Does anyone know if Southwest still does that cattle call seating?

Yep, I've been using Southwest for my travel to Boise. Three lines - A, B, and C...basically the order your check in for your flight - which you can do from home, within 24 hours of flight time.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I need a 'where did I leave my motivation?'.com website. Or somebody with a cattleprod to wave at me.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am laughing out loud here at work because of the "fake sign language hands" Jesse gave her boss! Did you talk really slowly, too?
