You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

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

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

All those Hello Kittys have mouths. Clearly inauthentic.

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

Where I live now, I can park free on the street. (Otherwise I'd never even consider owning a car.)

Street parking can be a bee-yotch with having to move it several times a week for alternate side. When I lived in Astoria even having a car for a week now and then made 'nannas with the alternate side.

I'm sure you have but have you tried renting from the airport? Supposedly they can't/don't charge the premium You're a New Yorker rate anymore. And there is always Jersey, if you're going to have the car for an extended period of time it might be worth renting one west of the Hudson.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Falling in love with an inanimate object was his therapy. That's how he worked through his issues. I don't think the doll represented a psychotic break; I think he had always been that way and the doll was the start of the healing.

It seemed to me that Lars had never connected with people in his entire life. It was too much for him. When everyone was socializing with the doll he could start to have connections through her without so much pressure.

Because books.

I've been writing all. damn. day. I think I have carpal ... shoulder, weirdly. And my brain is fritzing.

I want to stay up to see Tina Fey on SNL, though, or at least the beginning. I'll have to mute the Bieber parts. ::shudder::

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Airport agencies don't let you take the car outside the US. (All-Car, which is the shady local place right down the street, is the only rental company I've found yet that will allow it without jumping through major hoops.)

"I am the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world"

Tina Fey's contributions could be pretty good. Still, this sounds like a job for TIVO.

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

Falling in love with an inanimate object was his therapy.

They brought the doll in too fast for me, then. The first therapy-needing thing I saw was him bringing a doll around like a girlfriend. And it seemed pretty obvious really early on what would be the trigger to resolve the whole thing, so it because a waiting game of indulgence until then.

I'm not good with harmless delusions. I was the five year old that told others there was no Santa, and it took a big sitting down to stop me from preaching Atheism too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My dinner guest just left, which is honestly kind of perfect. And the food was good -- new recipes from a Moosewood cookbook. I should maybe eat at my table more often.
