I *really* don't understand why cholesterol counts are expressed as a total of good and bad. I had a doctor's office warn me about my high cholesterol...because my LDL is in the 90s.
Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Late to the Yeah Iowa! party. But, as I am IN Iowa, I can tell you it feels pretty cool to be an Iowan.
I'm staying with my sister and her spouse and they were wandering around with silly, happy grins on their faces all day. My sister and sister-in-law have been married twice now, once in Canada and then a sort of "joining" ceremony at their Unitarian Church here in Cedar Rapids.
When sister asked spouse to marry her...Again! spouse's response was "Do I have to?" Sister said "Yes, you do!" followed by much laughter. They have to wait 3 weeks for it to take affect, so they didn't run out and get the license today.
Iowa has a good track record on being open and progressive-minded. Witness the last Presidential campaign. They were also one of the first to give 18-year-olds the right to vote (just in time for me to vote at 18) and were one of the first states to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment.
It's not always so liberal here, but we have our moments.

I've never been to a HS prom and I have no intention to start now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'd totally go to a HS prom, but where would I get a good date?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I have 2 close friends who are planning a commitment ceremony for October in Des Moines. One of the couple is actually a lobbyist for gay marriage rights in Iowa and she told me in December that it looked very good for their commitment ceremony to actually be a legal wedding. Now, it looks like it just may happen. I am so excited for them!

Oh, yay for them, ChiKat! Tell them I hope that they do get married, they look so happy together when I see them at your place. Moving to Iowa was perfect for them!

Did I mention I am going to prom this year? Not the Buffista Prom, but actual prom?
Hee! I take it you got tagged for chaperone duty?

Any testers looked at CI's cassoulet recipe? Are they INSANE? 24 hours of cooking, involving 4 cups of duck fat. Yeah, I'll get right on that.

::drool:: That's why I've never cooked a cassoulet but I order it whenever I get the chance. So insanely rich and delicious.
but where would I get a good date?
I suppose the HS is out of the question.
