Happy Anniversary to Laura and her DH!
Aims, it will be ok. You are very good at this whole moving thing, and you sound way more organized than I have ever been about it.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
... you know, on the one hand, friends who are trying to matchmake me with potential boyfriends is perhaps one of the greatest compliments I can get. I mean, hey, someone thinks I'm sane and worthy enough to get a potential second half. Cool.
On the other hand, I'm all "Dates? That what normal people are doing. How odd! And, umm, creepy". When my friend asked me if I want his number or should he give him mine, I pretty much replied with the subtext of "emails! Emails! No phone numbers for you!".
(Yes. I will have a date in the near future, and I'm trying oh so hard to fight the urge to do anything, including faking my own death and clinging to the walls of my room with my fingernails while wearing a chastity belt so I won't have to go through yet another 90 minutes of fake small talk).

Oh, and Happy Anniversary, Laura and DH!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Happy anniversary, Laura. Glad the kid is okay. Someone ought to teach a high school course on the Physics of Driving a Car.
Shir, comforting thoughts to your sister.
Omnis, congrats on getting the job! (Provided they don't crack your alias from that job in Tangiers...)

I had a few stupid driving incidents as a teenager, including a couple of out and out car chases, though I used doubling-back rather than speed. Luckily, never crashed.

Happy anniversary Laura! Sorry it started off so badly. That seems to be the way the day is going for many.
Shir, emails are a good way...though they can be just as filled with awkward small talk. :)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, me too. And once I decided to find out how fast my parents' Mercury Marquis with the 460 engine would go. Answer: 120 mph.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
tommyrot, you're gonna drive me to drinkin' if you don't stop drivin' that hot rod Lincoln.

I found out a Subaru could do 105 sustained speed once while driving on I-70. Nonetheless, I got passed more than once.
