I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Then I'll really fall asleep! And seriously, it's three hours in between when I'll leave work and the reservation, so too much time to waste, I think.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Toothpaste!!!!!

I'm going to have to get some tooth powder on principle. Dang.

Three hours? A perfect movie-viewing interval! Or go hang out at the local big-box bookstore for some overpriced coffee and bookreading.

I'm now home and have already picked up my very messy dining room of all the junk mail, clothes on the drying rack, and Xmas gift bags. I tossed the red tissue paper on the floor for my cat, who is greatly appreciating it by shredding it and lying on the tattered remains.

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

You know, I only had gallon bags. So the TSA can blow me.

Oh, now that intrigues me. But no, I'll go home and get my cousin's present and then come back. No big, really.

Allyson, most airports I've been in recently have had quart size bags available at check in, I'm pretty sure. Unless it was just LGA multiple times.

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

Went to ER. For various and sundry reasons, including serendipity, I think this one might have worked. I'll have to work during the four day weekend to avoid having to take off non-existent sick time, but I'm dizzingly okay with that.

Naptime.

I often forget and have a lip balm in my pocket, or a bottle of water in my bag.

Wait, so I am going to have to remove my lipstick from my purse and put it in the quart ziplock bag? Oh, how dumb.

Lipstick is fine. A pot of lipgloss should be in the bag. Apparently.

I just want to make sure the security people don't suddenly say "Surprise! You have to throw away that brand new tube of NARS lipstick, so sorry".
