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.
A woman on another board (prompted by this) said that she always feels nervous/hypervigilant when a man comes onto an elevator she's been alone in.
This seems odd to me, unless the woman has been assaulted previously. I only get nervous if I'm walking outside, in the evening, alone and there are not many people around, so I don't really do that. It happened on occasion when I had night classes and I always hated it. But now I've GRADUATED!!! so no more of that.
I cannot focus on anything today. I just want to sleep for a week and wake up and reset everything.
My mother is totally blowing me off -- she's coming to the city tomorrow for work, so my dad is coming with her, but I don't know where they're staying, what they want to have for dinner, if they think it makes sense that I take tomorrow afternoon off, etc., etc. I need to make plans!

Oh. It's a recipe.
I was hoping for something more...explode-y.
DC really can't cope with snow. Schools shut down because the roads aren't cleared, and the roads aren't cleared because the city government really cannot get its act together in much of anything.
Also, does DC have laws about building owners clearing the sidewalks? Because there are plenty of unshoveled unsalted sidewalks here.
On the elevator thing, there have been a few times that I was touched kind of weirdly in an elevator. Not anything major, but just the guy kind of standing or leaning in such a way that my hand would have to brush against his stomach when I pressed the button or something like that. (In most circumstances, I would have just asked him to move, but these couple times were really early in the morning when I could barely put a sentence together.) But I don't really get hypervigilant -- I kind of notice, but that's about it.

That's a whole different recipe.
Just combine the following ingredients:
1 Large Pig
32oz C-4
1 Blasting Cap
2 Wires, long
1 Battery
Just combine the following ingredients:
1 Large Pig
I first read that as 1 Long Pig.
And sticking a blasting cap in a Long Pig would be exciting.
You know how sometimes a guy will propose to his girlfriend in some public event, like a sporting event? Ever wanted to see the girl say "No"?

It was more sad and less funny than I thought it would be. But still funny.
eta: I like how the TV announcer says that he wants a woman to say "No" just once, just before she does.
