Well there's always Tropical Depression Eight to keep an eye on:
I am so stressed at work right now, I can barely stand to stay here.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Here's hoping all of this year's hurricanes avoid our Gulf-istas.
Question for the hivemind -- do any of the major car rental chains offer one-way rentals? I'm thinking ahead to Thanksgiving & all the baby gear we'll need to lug with us and renting a car seems to be the most sensible way to go. OTOH, I don't want to pay for it to be sitting in my parents' driveway all week, so the best case scenario would be to rent it in NYC, return it in DC, and then do the same thing in reverse for the drive home.

Many of them do, although sometimes they charge you a (hefty) one-way fee.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Jesse, that just might be the studio where they filmed the commercial... I will check the DVDs for you.
Did I tell you they filmed an episode at the Grand Prospect Hall (said with Russian accent)?!

A weekly rental is almost always cheaper than two one-ways.

Hey, Emily! I was going to say that you were up early, then I realized that you're on Right Time now!
We may even have a regular East Coast AM crew again at this rate.
My mornings are going to be off for a while until I get a handle on this 'class at 8:30 AM' thing.

Still feels too early. Seriously, I'm getting more sleep now and feeling more tired.
Of course, last year I didn't have a first period class, so I could get a second cup of coffee and settle in before there were students. This year, I have a first period class and then there's study hall in my room, so I don't even feel comfortable making coffee.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Nah, it's definitely shot at Silvercup, per their website.

That? Made of awesome! If you ever have one and a stamp to spare, promise you'll send me one.
My old job title was "Coordinator of Special Projects". E me and I'll send you one if you like.

Oooh! When can I meet Dylan? Plus, time away from the family visiting your friend in her new place if necessary.
