That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Sighhh...
DO tell the people just what you mean by "stock up"

Mostly lurking...
The other Valerie (TOV) helped me unpack and sort my candles in my current place. My mom had helped me pack them, and informed me that I had "a candle problem." I was telling this to TOV as she unpacked, and she quite disagreed with my mother, until she happened upon the box with the Ikea tea lights.
I blamed Cass.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Shir, Route 66, built in 1926, was the first highway to the west and acquired legendary status [link].
So, it's a really really long drive, and there are stories and myths relating to it.
You see, that's why I study history.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I can go through 100 candles in a week! Buying 1200 tealights and a few hundred assorted candles is just logical when the store is three hours away. And I bought Tickybox a little stuffed fish that I named Sushi.

They are sold in stacks in their bags. You can just stack up the cubes! Clearly they are meant to be bought in bulk.
::sigh::
Candles is pretty.

Well, Shir, I'm not sure how much you understand about Americans and road trips and the devil-may-care fantasies we've erected(huh, huh, I said "erected") about them. It's kind of a Thing.

Never disrespect the unbelievable number of movies/TV show your culture has produced on this subject, which many were exposed to. Let alone Eurotrip.
Even in a country which stretches for 6 hours ride tops (north to south. West to east lasts about an hour and some), something about a roadtrip still makes me go giddy.
Edit: OMG, Ginger, what?!
Edit, the second: when it's late at night, English words have only one meaning. Guess which one I was reading in Ginger's post. Leaving it here for your entertainment.
