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.
and because it shouldn't be in the same post.
I am not sure if my morbid curiosity is gonna get the best of me but I may have to seek out a book on this case. at 13 she had had drugs before, had been drunk before and had already had sex twice, if I read that police interview correctly. seriously.
Missing a front tooth definitely gives a kid a Big Kid look!
I am so annoyed -- I was cleaning my kitchen so my super can come in the morning, and I broke a nail! This is why cleaning is no good. Man, they were frigging perfect.
She said she found and took part of a Quaalude once when she was "really little" - 10 or 11. And she totally recognized the pill, was able to recite the writing on it. That part I think is part of the "it was 1970s Hollywood," and clearly there was some really poor parenting going on in general. But, you know, not the child's fault.
Yay, Dana!
Woo hoo, Dana!!!
Yeah, there are tsunami warnings all over the Pacific, including Calif./Oregon coast.
Holy cow. Surf's up indeed.
I might be interested in a book on the case, too, msbelle. I used to edit a lot of true crime, and I read so much of it for a while, but it's been years. The well-written and researched stuff can be fascinating.
This is actually the third - but the honking big front ones are sure more noticeable!
Both of Sara's front top two are loose, and one of them is so wiggly, it's hanging low. Maybe I should give her an apple!

She said she knew what the writing was because she'd seen pictures of it on t-shirts.
WOO HOO, DANA!
My feelings on the Roman Polanski issue are represented fairly well by a post at Shakesville: Her Reasons Are Not Yours
Because EM is both horrified and fascinated by tsunamis I just had to call her up and tell her we're under a tsunami advisory.

I'm looking at the COBRA faq. So small companies (fewer than 20 regular employees) aren't included?
Plan Coverage - Group health plans for employers with 20 or more employees on more than 50 percent of its typical business days in the previous calendar year are subject to COBRA. Both full and part-time employees are counted to determine whether a plan is subject to COBRA. Each part-time employee counts as a fraction of an employee, with the fraction equal to the number of hours that the part-time employee worked divided by the hours an employee must work to be considered full time.
I just got an offer to extend my current coverage by another month for $400+ and I have to answer by tomorrow. I'm thinking I might be better off looking for part-time work at Starbucks.
