Now tagless for your comfort.

I was looking at Bag End and Liv walked up and said, "That's the house from Lord of the Rings!"

I'm so proud!

Once Owen can tell the difference between Romulans and Vulcans, my job is done.

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

It's all about the dumbness of the haircuts.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

It was so narrow that my bed pushed back under a built-in vinyl-covered cushion to make a sofa during the not-sleeping times.

Two years in Cole, one in McGill. (We obviously lived in the same dorm, some years apart. They were built with war surplus materials to house the GI Bill students and the heat never quite made it to the third floor. All their flaws were offset by not having a roommate.)

I was reading Megan's going "wait there was somewhere else that had a setup with 5 person apartments where one person got the single? How weird!"

I was in a three-person suite with one single and one double. I had the single, thank dog. All the other rooms in the building were singles, but this one was formerly the infirmary.

When my mother was in college, they had maids.

We had that too!

One of the other dorms on campus was formerly an old folks home and so a lot of the beds were those high hospital beds with wheels. It was also at the top of a very large hill. The combination of those factors led to some Very Bad Ideas being put into practice on a semi-regular basis.

We had maids! Once a week they came and vaccummed and emptied the trash. Often they also made my bed, even though that wasn't part of what they were supposed to do.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It was so narrow that my bed pushed back under a built-in vinyl-covered cushion to make a sofa during the not-sleeping times.

Ooh, we had those! I forgot about that. Possibly because I was in a big room, so it wasn't really necessary.
