I'm sorry, Sparky. Poor doggie, and all of you.
Travers: Perhaps you'll favor us with a demonstration while we're here. Buffy: You mean, like, right now? 'Cause, already had my recommended daily dose of fights tonight.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Democratic officials said Republicans agreed to drop their demands that funding be stripped from groups that provide abortions. And Democrats also succeeded in preventing Republican efforts to limit the Environmental Protection Agency's regulation of greenhouse gasses.
In exchange, Republicans got a larger cut in overall government spending than Democrats had wanted. The Democrats agreed to increase the total amount to be cut in exchange for Republicans accepting cuts in Pentagon spending that had been in Mr. Obama's budget.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Perkins, yes he knows. The scene in the hospital when he and JJ went off by themselves pretty much cements it.
I'm glad there's not going to be a shutdown. Cut it damned close to the wire though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Nutella mug cake. Num. Slightly makes up for having little fizz.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Kyl, you misogynistic fuckwad! Tep, I feel your Boehner-pain.
While I mean it enough to say it twice, I didn't really intend to.
Oh erika, you just cracked me up.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
It's the Smallville pilot! Bald Lex! Oh, those were the days.
I recorded this after reading your post! Mmm, Lex. I miss you and your evil, dude.

Milksoaked and then dried fruity pebbles (shut it, path of least resistance tonight, there was a 45 minute keening tantrum event unrelated to food-ignored it, but child has stamina and serious grudge powers*) and velveeta shell's cheese (ditto) need to be reclassified as high strength adhesive compounds.
Signed, they were soaking in the sink for TWO HOURS. And still...
OTOH, got both boys to stop fighting by... cleaning up. Yeah, I'm not the funnest aunt, but they are so comfortable with me, I can't complain.
* 45 minutes lying in the middle of everything, keening sobs at unrelenting volume. Everyone stepped over him, didn't address him, didn't made eye contact. He kept himself wound. Given how his brother reacted, this is par for the course. Kid is just STUBBORN. You have to roll over it.

Oy sarameg, that's painful. I guess I shouldn't complain when my kids have tantrums.

Given that I don't do this everyday, it was more funny than exasperating. I started making mental bets over how long he could last. Though, given phone calls with my brother, they do the same. Kid does know better than to pull this at, say, getting ready in the morning. He tried a little this morning, but pulled through at the last minute. He knows some things aren't negotiable, like the morning routine. This? It was after school, in their allotted Wii time, free time for the evening.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
What have I forgotten?
If my sad addiction to HGTV has taught me anything its that German apartments frequently come without kitchen appliances.
It has also taught me that frequently Americans moving abroad are better off renting than on both ends than selling their American house and purchasing one elsewhere.
Oh Sparky, all the getfound~ma in the world to Sass!
