Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
the "package" is, in fact, a folder full of recommendation letter requests.
It's a Christmas non-miracle!

Very happy day! She's been dating this guy for years now so he's already practically part of the family.
Of course now things that Mr. Jane used to get first dibs on, he'll have to fight over with Mr. Littlest Sister.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
New Orleans Hillel actually does have a very Mardi Gras-themed Purim. (What? It's about the same time of year, and the big parts of Purim are get drunk, dress in costumes, and make noise. It was lots of fun. Also, since the Hillel house counted as a private residence, drinking age there was 18 rather than 21, and there was an open bar.)

Related to #2. They were going to keep it a secret until Friday! We have clients all scheduled for those days and shit!
My boss does this when it comes to "minor" federal holidays that he decides to give off like Columbus Day or President's Day. He waits until Friday afternoon before the holiday and then is all like - hey why don't you take off this Monday. I've tried to explain how this would be much more meaningful a gesture with a little bit of notice, but he has no family so he doesn't get it.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
oh lordy. just by typing that, you sprung fifteen new websites out of the ether.
Sadly, not new - I was summarizing an old Pat Robertson rant.

What's a good gift for like a single, 25-year old New Yorker of any gender?

It's my fallback gift, anyway.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Yay little DJ sis!
OMG BORED!!!!!
Me too.
I also just tripped over carpet and now I'm pretty sure both knees are going to have spectacular bruises and skinned spots tomorrow.
At least only one of them is bleeding though, so that's something.

She says it was all very romantic. They were arguing about how much engagement rings cost (because of a completely different thing), so Future Mr. Little Sister bought one.
