Giles ,'Conversations with Dead People'
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.
Oooh, lisah, you got screwed today! (Just about everyone but City schools was closed.)
Well, I think they may have just figured out the policy today. Besides it wasn't that bad out there and I did actually have work to do that I couldn't have done at home. I've got my fingers crossed for tomorrow, though! And, although I have once again failed to buy salt, my neighbor had a bag and she lent me a cup so my Danger Steps are ice free.
much like the solved (or IS it?) toy boat fetish mystery.
Wait, it was solved?!?!?! HOW DID I MISS THIS?? I have SO been talking the toy boat mystery up to some friends and now I find out it's been SOLVED?!?! Hook me up here, people!
Me, too. The Boy is obsessed with it, and if he finds out I missed the answer by skipping and skimming, he'll kill me.
Yeah, this AM wasn't too bad unless you were walking on a rubber coated parking lot in slick shoes (me at the dentist's.) I switched to treaded shoes I'd brought with.
Or if you were the SUV who met with the snowplow on Coldspring.
Didn't we decide it had to be the battery operated... boats? Or at least wind-up.
I think my office might close with the schools, but they never close. Not that we've had more than a couple of inches at a time yet this winter.
In the decade+ I've been here, we've closed for brown-outs, a hurricane and a couple of HUGE snowfalls, like the Presidents' day one. And 9/11, they sent everyone home, most likely figuring out no one was doing any work anywho.
I think we concluded it was something around playing with them in the tub and being a little boy again? But I don't know that that was based on anything but being the least cringe-making (not to mention physically plausible) option we could come up with.
In my mind it's a fetish for women -- a vibrator/play thing. But again, could be totally made up in my head! (Because I do not share the fetish, assuming it is real.)
Well, that's no more outlandish, I guess. Wait, is outlandish a plus or minus here?
Either way, not solved.
They were too far away to ask: [link]
They seem to be doing...uh...something with a jib?
