Distract them with the YouTube and run away!
I told you that my mother's main reaction to reading Allyson's book was to say, So I shouldn't come out with you when you go smoke? Heh.
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.

ION, I was trying on knee-length shorts today, and I think they worked! Not the actual pairs, but the concept. Am I nuts, or are bermuda shorts actually surprisingly wearable?
I am currently wearing knee length Gramicci shorts. YMMV.
sara, I put up another kidvid on YouTube for you and the folks.
I noticed that, when I was in New Orleans for a while, my NY/NJ accent would get stronger. Like, I'd somehow start having aspects that I'd never had before, like pronouncing "car" as "caw" or using "youse." (I think the "youse" may have been a reaction against people telling me not to address a group that contained women as "you guys.")
Kidvids are good.
sarameg was in my dream last night. Sadly, I can't tell you why because I wasn't really sleeping

Nuts. Hate 'em.
Nuts. Hate 'em.
That's what I thought! But then, I don't know.
Resist the knee-length shorts, people! They're this year's bubble skirt!
I just found out that the new IKEA in Brooklyn is running 2 free shuttle buses to/from various subway stations! Score! (Of course, delivery costs as much as renting a Zipcar, but if I'm not buying furniture, free shuttle buses are made of win.)
A coworker and I are planning to take the ferry that runs pretty much directly from our office to Ikea, maybe next week. I'm all excited. Boat trip AND Ikea??? Does it get better??
Re: shorts. I think I still like them. [link] I don't wear shorts-shorts, and I've been starting to think my capris are just over. I could go all-skirt for summer, I guess.
I'm going to hang with Lori and ignore the rest of you people.
