perfect. so much better, Kate.

Jilli, I highly recommend Scarleteen. HIGHLY. t edit For ALL sex-related topics for teens, not just for BDSM topics. It's really excellent. For instance, Is somehing wrong with me because I like BDSM?

Speaking of plus size. Anyone have recommendations for reasonably priced wide calf boots. Wide calf, but not wide width.

Jessica London (which I think is part of OneStopPlus). Silhouettes has lovely wide-calf boots, but can be pricey, so watch for sales.

Vinegar also causes slugs to dissolve.

I carry sort of a purse/wallet, which I have emptied. I checked all my jeans. I haven't worn a coat since March. I have cleared off most of the kitchen table, which is a feat in itself. I've looked in the car.

Putting my hands on the kind of ID they want to replace it will be challenging.

Fire ants crawled up my pants and bit me this morning, so I took one Benedryl, and still had to come home and sleep. And I have to fill out an incident report. Oy.

My landlord and his plumber could not find anything wrong. ::sigh::

But hey, I deposited my paycheck and they cleared it right away, so I can pay my rent! Yay.

So it looks like on Saturday I may be meeting Will's boys for the first time. I'm nervous. But they are geeks so there is common ground. Hopefully it will happen I've wanted to meet them and hopefully they will like me.

I'm sick of coming home from work to lie down and try to make things stop hurting while other people finish work and then go out and have fun.

Mine was in the car after I had to take it out of my wallet to give it to the nice Marine when I accidentally drove onto one of the back entrances to the Marine Base in Point Loma.

Half of their Base looks like it could lead to a strip mall! Or dull condos. Um, not that I've done that.

E-zactly! We were going to Corvette at Liberty Station (you'd heard that Corvette's not on 5th anymore, right?), and we came in from the backside of Pt Loma that I'm just not as familiar with. The entrance to the Base looks just like the entrance to the "mall" (perhaps because the mall used to be part of the base?) You'd think the guys would be used to it and be all, "Yeah, Corvette's next one down on the left." But no, insisted on running my licence. Stupid guards, being all...on guard and stuff.

Corvette isn't in 5th?! Heresy. I took the Niecelet there for birthdays when she was younger than her current nearly 22. So maybe I shouldn't be shocked that things have changed.

One of my last trips down, I had a couple of free hours and a car so I wandered down the coast and ended up heading back towards a freeway to meet my folks for dinner through that area. I was looking for a place to grab water too. Nearly ended up on the Base. Very weird.

So it looks like on Saturday I may be meeting Will's boys for the first time. I'm nervous. But they are geeks so there is common ground. Hopefully it will happen I've wanted to meet them and hopefully they will like me.

That sounds great. I hope it all goes well.
