Now I want new nail polish AND new shoes.
And I want new knives.
Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I adore Owen with the adoration of one far far away who does not have to raise him. What tickled me was that he expected you to apologize.
Ironing? As many before me have said, if it can't be tossed in the dryer with a wet washcloth, I don't buy it. I'm all about the stretchy jersey knits, anyway.
Oh! I meant to say this, about 20 miles back:

I want to be a Lector! I am awesome at reading aloud! How come no one will pay me to do that?

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'm just so happy I'm not a scribner.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I watched TLC's version of Hoarders (Buried Alive) last night, and was sadly disappointed in the complete lack of feces (human or animal).
I need to see more crazy squalor, and people trading their children to protective services in exchange for keeping a Big Gulp cup.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
OMG y'all, I just found a pile of letters from like 1988 - 1997. seriously?!!? Like highschool graduation cards and shit. crazy. I am tossing like 90% of it. I have no idea who some of the people are and really no idea what we were going on about.
Now if I can just get mac to sleep soon, I can hopefully finish packing up the 4 plastic bins I have started.

I'm arguing food politics with someone who absolutely refuses to acknowledge the existence of food deserts. This is not going well.

So the shelves I bought require a "rubber mallet" for assembly. WTF?
You know, I think my fist makes a good approximation of a rubber mallet.

So what was the jury for, megan?? Can you tell us about it now?
1) DUI
2) BAC >.08 while driving
3) hit and run (a car not people)
4) intimidating witnesses
Basically, a guy hit a parked car at 10am on a Tuesday in front of a construction site. He fled the scene, but then came back and tried to tell the multiple witnesses not to get involved or his friends would "come beat them up" (or whatever the equivalent is in Spanish).
We actually had decided 3 of the counts on Friday, but were hung on the .08 charge. Because people are stupid.
