Goodgodno. You'll just roll your eyes and shake your head at us.

I'm already doing that. So share.

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

Another cool thing is if someone were to stumble upon Jilli's site after reading the Yahoo thing, the very top posting at Jilli's site is her review of Vampire People.

Nice to see such synchronicity in the Buffista World Domination plot....

Feel free to start.

I'm sorry, Pete! I had to share some awesome things with Jilli. I won't tell you what they are. She'll probably recover by the time she gets home. Maybe. And if she doesn't, um, at least she'll be happy?

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

Archie Mcphee has cool stuff, but their customer service stuff sucks. I wanted to get some gift certificates, but they aren't available on line, so I called, and they don't even have an 800 number, and then all of the reps were busy, and they don't even have a system for putting people on hold.

So I got itunes cards instead.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I've had one McPhee customer service encounter, and it worked very well for me. One of my wristbands broke when I tried to put it on, and they sent me a new set for free. And even included a punny comment on the band itself (despair).

Not having hold or an 800 number--that seems like a pretty basic setup they're lacking.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Cashmere, ugh! Does your husband agree about this woman's awfulness? At least then you'll be able to have someone to complain about her with after the evening is over.

Excellent point. That would seem to be the key. The bitching afterwards, I mean.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Yeah, there will be plenty of that. And drinks, too, I think. DH wanted to bail on the whole thing because he sees ex-co-worker every year in Vegas (without the wife). For him, that's enough. But since they called me, and I didn't have a good excuse at the ready, I caved and committed.

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

Perhaps one of the kids needs to get into a time-consuming (and yet perfectly safe for them) escapade that prevents you from attending??

After this morning, I'm escapaded out. I'd be happy to take them out to eat so I don't have to wash dishes or clean up. And they'll make a handy excuse for leaving early.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
