Why am I "bringing it home" myself like some kind of chump? That's so early 21st century.
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I want my IKEA chair teleported directly to my living room and assembled while it's still in the molecule stream! No, on second thought, not over there by the bookshelves, transport it to the other side next to the fireplace instead, wouldja mind?

Thrive to spite them
It should assembly itself at the store and then fly you home.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
And the IKEA bookshelves (after assembling* themselves and flying you home) should put all your books on the shelves, in the correct configuration, whatever that may be for your groove.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
I hope you're feeling better, Suzi.
I am thank you. I think a good night sleep helped shake off the left over anxiety and the body finally chilled out.
OMFG - someone scanned something and sent it out to a HUGE distribution list. And it seems like EVERYONE is replying all with "this isn't mine", "why am I getting this", "there is not need to reply all", "STOP", "why are you all replying all", "why is everyone spamming", "this looks like an error", "wrong recipient". JUST FRICKING DELETE!!!!!!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
People just can't resist hitting that "reply all" button. Jenny Lawson - The Bloggess - had a post about how she'd asked a company to stop sending her information about what a great advantage it would be to have their ads on her site. Got back a rather snarky note about it and, somewhere along the line, someone hit "reply all" and she got a message referring to her as a bitch.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Oh, that was the one where she responded with "please stand by for a demonstration of my relevance" and set off a Twitter nuclear bomb.
Hi Toddson!! And everyone. I can't even stay caught up in Bitches these days.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

That phrase always sends me into a fit of giggles.

OK, here's a question for the hivemind: I'm 35. I'll be 36 in August. In theory, I would really like to have kids. However, that theory involves having a partner--I really don't think I'm interested in being a single parent. I'd rather be the fabulous auntie and travel the world, if it comes to that, I think. But given my age, I'm thinking that even if I met someone soon (heck, if I settled down with the young'un I'm seeing (yes, I'm still seeing her)), by the time we got serious and wanted babies, I'd be seriously old to be having good eggs.
So the question is: do I try to freeze my eggs? From everything I've read, it's not that crazy a procedure anymore, but the big thing is, it's hella expensive. While I could afford it, it would put a harsh crimp on my emergency funds. And what if I don't meet anyone? Then have I spent five figures on something I don't need? But if I did meet someone and it was too late, how glad would I be that I had some backup? I...just don't know. (This is all of course assuming that even my current eggs are semi-decent, which is not a given). I'm also assuming in this scenario that my partner would likely either also be old, or be unwilling to carry a baby (given the sort of people I tend to date).
So. Hivemind thoughts?
