I love my fluevogs, too.
Is is OK to blow off grading papers tonight to shop for shoes on Zappos?
Spike: Ladies. Come on in. Plenty of blood in the fridge, don't be shy. Dawn: You mean like, real blood? Spike: What do you think? Dawn: Mostly I think, 'Eew!'
'Potential'
Natter 56: ...we need the writers.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

My feet are so weird, I really have to try on shoes. Even among a brand with similar styles. Plus getting shipped to is a pain in the ass.
Just as well, I really do have to clean out my closet before doing any more purchasing.
One of my neighbors greeted me tonight with "How's it going, beautiful?" Sometimes, that can ick me. It didn't this time. Not sure if it was because it was a neighbor (one who I don't really know, though) or if he was just super low-key and unthreatening. I took it as a compliment.
One of the things I like about this 'hood is that, despite the occasional fucktard lunacy, the regulars are pretty damned casually friendly. Just about everyone greets in passing. I now even get eye contact and the occasional small smile from the crazy russian lady who spends most of her time ranting at no one in particular and glaring suspiciously at passers-by.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
You know, I'm really not invested in any candidate, so I don't care too much who wins. But man, is it really satisfying to watch Rudy Giuliani lose.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sure it was a compliment, sarameg. Shiny!
I'm watching TDS now since it is on too late for me to see live. Oh Jon, I have missed you so.

Now tagless for your comfort.

ME, TOO!
Don't think I haven't considered this.

I spent an hour today with people's hands in my mouth, remarking on how easily my teeth stain (but clean up easily, yay?) and listening to my spit get slurped up. I was in the mood for a compliment.

And now I just made myself feel stupid because PBS prompted me to grab my old thermo text to see if I still remembered PV=nRT correctly ( thankfully, yes,) and in paging through it...man, I've forgotten FUCKLOADS. I probably couldn't even do basic calc reliably anymore.

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

I spent some time looking at calculus stuff online a few months ago. The more I looked, the more came back to me, but I was amazed at how much I'd forgotten. (Even though I was once told the half-life for mathematical knowledge is 1.5 years.)

Let her shake! No water will get on you or the floor.
From the picture, it looks like it could also be used to decontaminate your dog if it's exposed to plutonium.

In tutoring my neighbor, I've been both pleasantly and un- by what comes back and what doesn't. Basic geometry rules tend to. Remembering that there was a reason for the rules governing the order you perform functions was an embarrassing one...
Honestly, a lot probably would come back were I to need it (with some refreshing.) It's just amazing how much time I invested, and how much I enjoyed stuff, and now I've forgotten it. I loved practical calc. I still think I have the mental understanding of things, if not the ability to actually do the calculations. I guess I still know how to approach it. So there's that.
