You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

I just got rid of my cell phone. Decided the expense didn't warrant hanging on to something I never used. I only got it for two reasons: 1) so my daughter could have a cell phone when she still had crappy credit and 2) to have during the F2F. Her credit's improved enough, she got her own cell phone recently and I'm saving $60 a month. Yay. I might get a tracphone, though. Just to have something. But it wouldn't be a monthly fee to worry about.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The Chinese restaurant had no scallion pancakes at their steam table.

Bastards.

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

MAJOR SCALLION PANCAKE FAIL

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Our cell phone plan charges for texting so we don't use it. I have nothing against texting, I just don't want to pay for it.

Yeah, that was my thing against texting too. I was charged ten cents a text either way. Then fifteen. Then twenty. At which point during my road trip it made sense to just pay five bucks for 300 texts since after 25 texts, they're basically free.

Now I wonder why I resisted so long. It's very useful and fun. Unfortunately, my phone is not a Smartphone and has very little memory for texts, so I can only save about twenty texts to treasure forever. I have to delete old gems to make room for more.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Congrats, Allyson!

I resisted texting b/c I hated doing it on a numberical keypad. Then I got an iPhone, and that was that. I'd still rather talk on the phone for a long conversation, but yeah, texting has lots of uses.

There's thing thing you can buy that'll let you read the memory card in your cellphone for retrieving and saving text messages, deleted phone numbers, etc. If you're interested I can try to find the link....

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I have only ever texted once or twice. I wish I could get used to it, as it is pretty handy when you are in tech rehearsal and the people in the costume shop have a question or what have you.
