But you'd need a priest at hand to do the blessing part.

It seems unlikely they'd play along.

Ohhhh! I see what you're saying.

But then........

.....

NOPE! Not going to go there.

OK, she just came up and apologized "if" she made it sound like she was accusing me of losing/hiding the materials.

And, in case my snark didn't make it clear, I really *wouldn't* be so disrespectful of Catholic beliefs as to chow down on communion elements. Presbyterian with Baptist roots that I am, I don't believe in transubstantiation, but I couldn't work in this department if I wasn't flexible and respectful about the beliefs of others.

ETA Nebbermind. Conversation got all hilarious on me while I was earnestly declaring my Respect For All Peoples.

That's me. Way too earnest for my own good 90% of the time...

When are you going?

Early April. I have use-it-or-lose-it vacation that expires May 1, and my DH can only be gone the first half of any given month. It might not be very warm, but the prices are cheap and the dog is allowed on the beach then.

The prices will be crazy cheap then! And as long as you're not there to lie on the beach exclusively, the weather should be great for playing with the puppy on the sand and nice walks and all that.

Hi MM!

Hey Sean!

But you'd need a priest at hand to do the blessing part.

"Bless the snacks! Do it, Padre, I'ma hump your Virgin Mary statue! Do it! BLESS THE CHEESE TRAY!

Good. Now bless the cold cuts."

I'm surprised the Catholic Church hasn't sent a cyborg priest back from the future to "deal with" MM's blasphemy....

Because MM will end up leading the resistance that defeats PopeNet....

part of the problem is that the curtain is extra big, and so it bunches up, and then the part that's bunched up -- like gathers or pleats in a skirt -- is what encroaches on my shower space.

This sounds fixable, though - can you replace or even just trim the curtain down to size?

Can you stick extra fridge-type magnets on various critical curtain bunching points?

I think I might try both -- trimming the curtain AND extra bonus magnets.

Yes, these are things that plague my thoughts.

when I'm showering, the shower curtain is contstantly clinging to my gigantic wet ass, and I want to rip it down in frustration.

Heh. I'm pretty sure that SF has clingy shower curtains, too.

You only have to get as far as DC, and then we'll give you a ride.

Oh, they did. But they got their idea of its human "look" from Ed Norton in "Keeping the Faith".

I beat it to death with a picture of Ben Stiller. Wasn't so hard.

Tep, I can't imagine that you could physically make a full bath smaller than mine! Damn!

5' x 6' is me rounding up. Before we re-did it, we'd bump our knees on the sink if we sat down. The only thing we kept was the tub (because it's deep and old), and fitting the toilet and sink so that there was enough space to get out of the tub involved construction planning Tetris. I should post the pictures before and after one of these days.
