I look more rad than Lutheranism

What's a skull brad?

Brads are little metal things scrapbookers and other crafty people use to hold pages together or decorate them.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Well, it's the large bones in your head that hold your brains in, and my name's not brad.

Ah, but they can be conveniently repurposed for other decorative needs! Clever!

t edit I'd just like to note that Daisy Jane is a smartass.

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

They have skull and crossbone sticky ribbon in purple, 1 yard at $3.95.

And a skull and crossbones paper kit that has a pink and black argyle pattern with skulls in every other pink diamond.

Did I mention that some of the skull brads are pink?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hey, ND, I'm not even close to being able to afford to think about buying your car. But that's exactly the sort of thing I wish I were in the market for. With the move to the new house, it gets pretty muddy out on those roads just during winter, I can't imagine what it's going to be like during monsoon. So I'd love to have something more 4wd than our AWD van. But we still need storage space to haul us and the dog and our gear around. In general I wish I were in the market for a more efficient vehicle but the reality is I probably need a less efficient vehicle to be able to handle the rougher roads.

Anyway. All that is to say, how does it handle? How does it do for hauling gear? What do you actually find you get as far as mileage?

If you don't mind answering someone who's totally not going to buy your vehicle, much as she wants to. Heh.

Argh argh argh! Do not tempt me with pink skully things! I must save my money for custom clothing to wear to upcoming gothy-goth events!

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Well, you know that I've also always been a big fan of jumping at an opportunity.

I know this well.

Two years is a while to wait around. In that respect I've always been a pretty big risk taker though. I've moved on short notice and grabbed projects that were probably out of my league and then held on for dear life.

I'm going to put my resume out and see what happens. If something came my way I'd be stupid not to make the jump. The situation in 2 years will be there if I am at my current position or not. It's true that 2 years is a while to wait. That's the part that is driving me nuts!
