Shir!!
Yes, some down-time between the BA and grad school is a GOOD IDEA.
As is the idea of travel. Um. International travel? Remember, KC is in the middle of the country -- a great layover place. Ahem.
We're taking a moment ... and we're done.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

Erin!
If my plan will work, I'm thinking of a U.S. tour, yes. But plan should work before I'll get too dreamy on this.

The status is NOT quo.
And Pasadena is an excellent getaway--mountains! Palm trees! And the ocean not that far away! And cute pets! Oh, and us.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
And there's Arizona! You have to come see the Grand Canyon just to say you did, right?

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
But I was already in Arizona and I saw the Grand Canyon (my aunt lives in Sedona)! I remember the look of disappointment over the tour guide's face when I didn't seem so excited about it. I then explained him that I've been living for 4 years next to Makhtesh Ramon, and while it's a absolutely, without a doubt, a bigger hole in the ground, I still prefer my own Makhtesh.
Don't get me wrong: it was pretty and impressive. But I wasn't going to fake an orgasm over it.
As for American Buffista Tour (again, if it'll happen): I'll come to wherever time and money will allow. I do wish to see you all, but I don't think I'll be able to do it without spending most of it on planes and buses.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
We just booked a very last minute vacation for the weekend, as in we're leaving in an hour. I'm trying not to panic about forgetting things. It's been a long week with the wake and funeral and so much family together time. It will be good to just get away and be alone for a couple of days.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
sj, take a breath, make a list of any things you can't afford to buy on the road if you forget them. Then once those things are packed you can relax.

I hope this vacation will go smoothly and will be just what you need it to be, sj.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Hey, Shir! I'm almost done with Someone to Run With ! I really like it, and I wonder if Tamar is your role model, because she is awesome. Look for a review next week, maybe.
