You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

"Dean" would be either a bright green or a sparkly chrome.

See, I kinda think "Dean" would be matte black with sparkly chrome bits.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

No shit, Sophia! Dude, take 'em to the cleaners! Learn to iron.

My mom would laugh hysterically at the notion. Even if I were a son, not a daughter.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oh, Burrell, have I told you that you might like Nubar's Purple Beach? Here's a better descript of it.

have you had that permanence problem with Sam (I can't actually type that without smiling)

I can't read it without snickering.

I would *so* wear that. Shiny!

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

That's a Dean I could partake of. And as a DeanGirl, well, that's how I vote.

My mother doesn't even like it when I let their cleaning lady do my laundry. Like she'd ever touch it.

In OTHER news, Cass tells me that the nail polish round robin is coming to me. If any LAistas would like to see what's in the box and add their own (and take some out too), we should arrange a time to get together to do it once it arrives.

ALSO I'm trying to order food for Noah and Grace's party. Which is fun and stressful and good. I think I mailed invites to everyone, but if I didn't, it's because I'm a flake (burrell, I'm pretty sure I mailed one to you... did you get it?)

I'm so tired and worn out.

Hell, yeah. I had friends in college who talked about going home on the weekends and having their moms do their laundry--all they had to do was put the bag of clothes next to the washer, and it was done by Sunday night. I, OTOH, had to do my own; Mom just provided the machines and the laundry soap.

Then again, I airdry so many of my shirts that I prefer to do my own when I go to Mom's for vacation, otherwise, I'd end up with shrunken tops.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I did the family laundry starting when I was like 10. And now I generally won't throw my stuff in with theirs (when I was visiting) because I have princess issues (cold water/no drier). I can only imagine asking my mother to iron for me!

Edit: In my family, everyone irons their own stuff right before wearing whatever it is. Except my father, who got his shirts laundered, so they were ironed for him! Not that hard.

“Not dead yet!”

My mother will do my laundry when she's here visiting, despite the fact that I ask/tell her not to.

Actually, let me amend that-- I'll do the laundry, but she'll commandeer the folding because she knows I hate doing it. I still tell her to leave it alone, but she's incapable of doing so so I just gracefully acquiesce and try to make sure as much of it as possible is done before she comes to visit.

Yeah, I had to do my own laundry from about 13. The one time my mom tried to do me a random favor on a college break and do my laundry she threw all of it in the dryer and shrunk several line dry only shirts.

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

To be fair to my family, both my mother and sister did my laundry when they came to stay with me. My mother did it because she feels sorry for me, and my sister was doing laundry anyway.

But iron??? Hells to the no. My mother clearly explained she didn't feel that sorry, and I don't think my sister irons.
