Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I missed the Sparky news, argh!

Quick, someone go through my closet and tell me what to wear!

Jewel-toned top?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

You know who I didn't even think to ask for help? jengod. Isn't she still writing for e?

OK, well, I can sort of imagine the Sparky news, if not the specific show... the more exposure the better, so, yay.

I may be tired and indulging in stress eating, but I don't care: chocolate tortilla chips with dark cherry salsa are AMAZING.

Oh, my god, where did you find those things?? That sounds delicious.

The chips are by Food Should Taste Good, and I got 'em at Whole Foods. I think the company website has a store locator. [link]

The salsa is by Hood River Cherry Company, and while I also got it at Whole Foods, you can order it online: [link]

I'm also stress window-shopping. Because, really, I need MORE stripy blazers. If I could find them.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I may be tired and indulging in stress eating, but I don't care:

I ate ice cream for dinner, and I MAY EAT MORE.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Oh, Jilli, I saw a car going up the street the other day and thought of you - it had broad pink and black stripes!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I want it to be October now. Why isn't it yet?
