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.

I don't think my foot is broken! I mean, I haven't done anything that would break bones! It just, uh... hurts to put my weight on it?

She "wishes we had better choices".

I have to go to Trader Joe's at lunch (well, "lunch" -- we can take our lunch hour however we choose, and basically whenever we choose), and so the question is: do I buy champagne now? Or is that a jinx? I could wait until 8:00 or so, when the results are surely going to be obvious, and then run out to the store, but -- I don't want to run out to the store when I could be watching the returns obsessively.
Now, I think. Call it a calculated risk.
You could just buy champagne now to celebrate some non-specific occasion in the future. That should fool any jinx.
Tep, buy the champagne now. You can either drink it to celebrate or to drown your sorrows as appropriate.
OH, good one. I have a bottle in my fridge that I've been saving for an important event.
