Everybody plays each other. That's all anybody ever does. We play parts.

I did get another room right down the hall, and almost immediately went to sleep. Flight this morning went smoothly, and I'm waiting for my luggage and my husband.
Yay HOME.

Yay on new room, home and smooth flight.
Boo on the recent events leading up to it.

And now I have my bag. The small airport thing has its drawbacks, but the small part is nice. And the free wireless.

“Not dead yet!”
I have entered the Pit of Despair, AKA, Abby's room for a culling and cleaning and a vague hope of eventually finding the floor.
If y'all don't hear from me in a couple of hours, send help, preferably in the form of a Cabana Boy with froofy drinks and massage oil.

That sounds like my daughter's room. She was supposed to clean it up early this week, but she got sick. Maybe this weekend.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I love Xenu. From Wikipedia:
Xenu, also Xemu (pronounced /ˈziːnuː/[1][2][3]) was, according to Scientology founder and science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard, the dictator of the "Galactic Confederacy" who, 75 million years ago, brought billions[4][5] of his people to Earth in DC-8-like spacecraft, stacked them around volcanoes and killed them using hydrogen bombs. Scientology holds that the essences of these many people remained, and that they form around people in modern times, causing them spiritual harm
Awesome! A stunning amount of not-sense-making. I never knew about the DC-8.
The appearance of these spacecraft would later be subconsciously expressed in the design of the Douglas DC-8, the only difference being: "the DC8 had fans, propellers on it and the space plane didn't."
Uh-huh. And what does it mean that the DC-8 was sorta' a copy of the 707?
