My apologies to Wichita, in that case.
A f2f wherever-the-hell-Erin-is would be entirely awesome but not a cause for protest signs.

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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I started a riot in London once.
ETA: Kansas City, btw. And I AM thinking about throwing it in the F2F pot. Depends on timing for me.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
The Scion cars have possibly the silliest car feature I have ever seen. It's LED lights under the dashboard, where the driver's and passenger's feet are. There's a button on the steering wheel to change the color of the lights. The cup holders also light up. This is an optional feature, and getting it installed is $300.

I knew you were KC, Erin!! I meant that F2F should follow wherever you go. With signs. Because I'm in a total dorktasm of a mood, and not so much with the making sense.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Thanks guys. I really overdid it with the babysitting for a cranky sick toddler this past two weeks, which is just really discouraging, because I so want kids.
That should be part of the official parenting test. If you can take care of someone else's cranky sick toddler for two weeks, and still want to have kids, you pass.

LOOK AT YOUR SIGN. NOW BACK TO ME. NOW BACK TO YOUR SIGN. NOW BACK TO ME.
I wonder how we could rig up a sign to vary slightly on one side, so when you spin it around, one side keeps saying "Now back to me" and the other side would switch between the two "your sign."

I am in Hawaii on Oahu! We rented a house with nine other friends/kids and it is awesome. I am sitting on the deck listening to the waves and watching the sun set over the western edge of the US. There is no one around but us. The beach is empty. It is so peaceful here. I am not sure i would want to live out here but it is beautiful. At the moment I don't even want to go diving. I just want to sit up here and relax.

Hey, and i had a really cool moment at the airport. Joe was asking why our friends don't get the immigration thing and i started talking about privilege. I was talking about the abled/disabled thing and saying that it applies to many things. Then ten minutes later this woman comes up to me and tells me that she overheard my conversation and she thought it was awesome to here me talk about it. I think she was saying that it was amazing to her to hear a white person acknowledge the idea of privilege. We talked for a few minutes and she was really great. Of course, i started the whole thing with Joe as "the buffistas taught me about..."

Now tagless for your comfort.
That's awesome, Stephanie! I'm jealous. I loved Hawaii. There is something magical about the beaches.
