I just was in a meeting with a fancy new interactive/news guy, and I said that it's ideal if I know about things a year before they happen. Hee. His head almost exploded, I think.
Shh! I kinda wanna hear me talking right now!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, 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.

I just checked in with her. They ended up flying to Oklahoma City because the flooding in Arkansas was going to be too bad to drive through. She's back at work in Nashville, and her DH is still in OKC with family.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Thanks for checking, amyth! Do we have anyone else along the Mississippi? MtBF, you're around Memphis, yeah? But I know I've seen you posting, so I'm assuming you at least aren't totally underwater. Anyone else?

You're right, it is Nashville. Sorry, worrying instincts took over.
Matt's near Memphis though.
(ETA: Or, what Amy said.)

Because books.
I think tiggy is in Nashville, too.

I'm about 70 miles from Memphis, and up on Crowley's Ridge, so no direct flooding fears. But I can't easily travel an hour either way to see relatives thanks to flood dangers in between.
I think Dcp is still in the western half of the state, but it's much more hilly on that side so danger should be restricted to river valleys.

Glad to hear that you and the relatives are safe - but I hate it that you can't get to them. Hope everything is normal-ish soon.

I totally have a type.
I have two. Dark-haired, makeup-wearing, probably a musician, would probably look good as a vampire (see: Adam Ant, Nikki Sixx, Gerard Way, and most of my ex-boyfriends), or tall, British, and with a side of possible brooding. (See: Christopher Lee, David Bowie, Peter Murphy, and that guy I married).

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
The type thing: It's not real specific. I love writers, though. I think I'd be worried if I ever really got my ideal man...he's anti-social in one way or another and deeply fucked up...the silver-tongued devil type. Women: I like the tough ones. Faith, Pink...although I'd absolutely get with Joan if I could. Love redheads, and her mouth absolutely gives me dirty thoughts all day long.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Insofar as I have a type, I married him: brown hair, boyish good looks, geeky. That doesn't describe every person I've been with, but it does capture the shared qualities amongst most of my crushes.
