Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

Hey folks, I need advice. I need to put both a CD track and an MP3 file onto a CD, to be played I assume on a boom box. I would just buy the MP3 song on a damn disc, but there's some time pressure as this is for an impending funeral. There seem to be 5,000 conversion programs out there -- any suggestions?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

You know what's kind of mortifying? Realizing that your already fairly high level of sucking at parallel parking has been exacerbated by the fact that you really can't turn your head and neck very far to the right to the point that you have to ask someone else to do it.

Luckily, JZ is a kind soul and didn't mock me as much as she could have.

What about me? I'm full of mockery and I didn't even take the bait.

I figured you were trying to set a good example for the kids, so I took your mocking as given. (and deserved)

Because books.

Emily, it might be easier to convert the CD track to MP3. What kind of file is it?

I don't know. I don't actually have that CD yet.

And I could probably find whatever music that is as an MP3 file... but then will I be able to play those files on an ordinary CD player? I have been fooled before.

Because books.

I'm pretty sure I've saved CD tracks to my computer and burned them along with MP3s onto disc.

If the CD player will play writable discs, I don't think it should be a problem?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oh Perkins, I've been there before. Both times I was pregnant my ability to parallel park went to shit once I hit about 7 months and could no longer twist to look over my shoulder without bumping into my own belly.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I like that ita is making these judgements.

I'm sorry, at what point have I been showing attraction to weirdos?
