I still have to unpack and then repack for the beach next weekend.
Lord, I hope for your sakes it's not in New England. Or, for all our sakes, the weather "prophets" are wrong (in quotes since they got the majority of today DEAD WRONG, THANK DOG).
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Pictures from Jilli's signing!
I took a crapload of pictures. Some of them are interestingly blurry. Some of them are non-interestingly blurry. If you flip through some of them, it's like a little Jilli animation.
Jilli and Pete, if any of them tickle your fancy, I can send you the hi-res versions.

OMG, ComicCon sounds unbepolarbearinglievably fabulous!
Vortex and I share unpacking habits. I think it's a mind game I play with myself. If I can still see the suitcase, then the trip isn't over yet.

Me too. Or possibly I'm just a slob. One or the other.
Lily slays me. (So, nothing new there, then.)

Total amateur here, as I unpacked as soon as I got home. Granted, mainly that was because almost everything I brought needed to be washed, and I decided to do laundry as a way to stave off jet lag. So there's that.

I think Frankenbuddah is from the other side of the isle. My bag is still on the floor, mostly packed.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Did anyone else's checked bags get TSA-searched? I found a nice little "We have searched your bag" notice underneath the first layer. I hadn't even noticed that the tell-tale on the lock had been tripped.

Our wings are not tired.
One year when I sent the boys to basketball camp the TSA placed their note neatly right on top of my 'Instructions from Mom' note that I left on top in the boys' bags. I suspect they were amused by the fake instructions I had mixed with the brush your teeth and listen to your coaches instructions. I always include things like 'don't eat roadkill' to make sure the boys read the whole list.

No, but I did find out on my trip back from Seattle that a CPAP is a highly dangerous device that needs a special scan and needs to be re-run through the x-ray (insert ironic quotes as needed). I guess this isn't the case going from Boston to Seattle since they didn't mention it or remotely look twice at my baggage. I suspect the luggage check was part of the reason I completely lost track of Brenda and Sail at the terminal.

CPAP devices are listed at most of the airports I fly through as items that must be removed from carryon baggage the same as laptops, full size video game consoles, and tape based video cameras.
I just might spend too much time clearing security.
