I'm getting really good at tilting my head, pouting, and saying, "bof."
What more do you need?
Old trusty soda machine. I push you for root beer, you give me Coke.

“Not dead yet!”
My mother wants me to go to Spain and Portugal with her.
I told her it was a lovely thought (and it is) but I'd really, really like my first trip to Europe to be with my husband. Who promised. A really frakkin' long time ago.

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

From what I've read about the trains, a can of mace.
Or, "I'm an American and I will cut you, dickhead."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Also a big-ass scarf to throw rakishly about your neck.

I never had trouble on the trains in Spain (ha ha ha - and they travel mostly on the plain!) - but then I have facial piercings and dress mostly-in-black. Even being a Wee Munchkin of a Pocketbear(TM) as I am (as I be? I've confused myself with grammar) I tend to scare people. It would warm my heart, if I had one. (I have it on reliable authority that I don't have a heart, just a tired cinder.)

I've been to Canada a few times, but it was before 9/11 so I just needed a copy of my birth certificate to prove to the highly cranky US customs people that I was a citizen upon return. (Well, actually, that was just for flying. For driving to/from Toronto all I needed was my driver's license and receipts for stuff I was bringing back across the border.)
I suspect that on the way up I could have just shown one of the pictures of me posing with Ray Bourque and been waved on through.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I was in Germany and Austria for three months when I was 19. I went to Vancouver BC for a weekend the next year. That's all my extra-US travel. I've never been to Mexico. I renewed my passport after Bush got elected the second time. I figured there was no telling when I'd need to flee the country. My sister's boss has a villa in the south of France, and we have a standing invite to spend a summer there and drive his Saab. We have never taken him up on it, and I'm not even sure why. Maybe next year.

Not too long. You don't want to repeat Isadora Duncan's mistake.

Whenever someone mentions tossing a scarf around their neck, I think of Isadore Duncan. I can't even wear a turtleneck.
