America, you may have the right to bear arms, but god help you, you will not have Kinder Eggs!
Heh. They had them at my old grocery store in Queens. I wonder what other contraband they were selling!
I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh. Went to talk with the orthodontist. He doesn't think Em's treatment is going to be enough so she probably will need surgery. Thing is, it's almost never covered by insurance. We have to figure on at least $40,000 when the time comes. He said that however well-intentioned, about 90% of his patients who need surgery don't get it because the parents just can't afford it.

Oh, I loved my property law class - so much fun!
brenda is me w/r/t shoes at the office. It's there I require variety; at home I'm either chasing a dog or a child.

BWAH! My favorite is Robert Jordan's "Characters Show Up."

Gud - what kind of surgery? CJ's ortho said he will likely need jaw surgery to correct a severe underbite. He wouldn't get it done until his early 20's since they would want to wait for him to be past his growing phase, but that insurance may cover it if we make a case for sleep apnea.

WTF, Off The Map?
Yeah, it was not good in many ways, but I will probably give it at least a couple more episodes if only because Caroline Dhavernes is in it.

Same sort of thing. He was less encouraging about insurance coverage though, he said he's only had one case of insurance covering it since he started his practice. Apparently, it's pretty much a standard exclusion.

It's funny because it's true. I liked the first three books, but then came the realization these storylines weren't going anywhere anytime soon and that his female characters were all very similar.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I tried to pick back up Wheel Of Time after a long gap, and dear god, is it insensible. You can't tell the characters apart, and there just keep getting to be more and more of them.
My favourite was the Xanth one. That dawning realisation was pretty much where I gave up reading and sold my stash.
