Pinocchio: Vampire Slayer
After seeing Geppetto die at the hands of vampires, Pinocchio swears revenge in this darkly funny graphic novel. As the vampires plot the enslavement of mankind, only a one-puppet army stands in their way. But will a wooden boy and his endless supply of stakes—courtesy of plenty of lies and his elongating nose—be enough to save the day?
I am so sleepy right now, and I have to go to a 45-minute long meeting in 25 minutes with the CEO presenting "some remarks." I'll be sucking down some Diet Coke and keeping my fingers crossed that it'll wake me up sufficiently.
tommyrot's post reminded me, I had a dream last night in which I was a vampire slayer. I was having a hard time telling who was a vampire and who was not, so I poked a lot of random people really hard in the chest with a pencil, just to be sure.
HIvemind question: I'm meeting up with other b.org types at the DC zoo tomorrow and will be taking the metro. The only stroller I have with me is the double jogging stroller. I reallywant to take it with me because that's a long way to carry 25 lb Frisco and keep track of Ellie. But it's wide and I'm afraid will ne unweildy and annoying on the metro. I'm not sure I have a choice, though.
I'd take the stroller. Use your most polite tourist manners and don't go at rush hour. Out of rush hour, the trains are pretty spacious and the platforms very much so. The biggest danger I see is that the elevators may be closed at any given Metro stop, which seems to occur frequently and at random. Could you make do on an escalator if you had to?
The National Zoo rents strollers, if you don't mind carrying him on the Metro:

How much do you pay for yoga classes? I pay about $16/class for mac's karate, bit am looking at $19 - 21/class for yoga.
Drop-in at my studio is $15/regular class and $6/community classes (these get pretty crowded, naturally). I'm actually getting free yoga now in return for washing the studios rental towels. I really need to go more often!
msbelle, per class session right? $20 is pricey to me for drop in, (here it's like $16 maybe) but the Anusara studio in NYC is $18 for drop in so maybe it's about right?
You know it's monday and Tino's at it when you are at the beach 100+ miles from home, at a campsite, with your baby already fussing in the car seat ready to go and your car battery is dead.
You know Tino just had his ass served to him when a fellow camper has jumper cables and offers to help.
EAT IT, TINO.
Tino is completely fucking with my internet connection, which is not helpful when I'm trying to chat with my father who is currently in Europe.

as hard as you can."
