I've already talked with Emmett about how women perceive men and he has to be conscious that he's big enough now that if he's walking behind a woman at night he's a perceived threat. Stuff like that.
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Barely made the last leg of the trip. Chicago has it in for me. I try at all costs to avoid it, but sometimes I just can't and it never fails to remind me why. Bed now.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Good first evening with the friends. Man, I miss these guys. I miss just hanging out, and talking music, and in-jokes, and shared history.
Tomorrow will be a busy one, but should also be good. I hope the show makes some money for them. It sucks that their Phoenix gig fell through but I'm happy for the extra time.

Our wings are not tired.
My parents never, never ever ever, said any similar to me. Oh hell no.
I do not follow those guidelines (shocking, I know) and not once have I had my life threatened when I was a minority in a setting or an event.
I grew up in New Orleans, with a majority black population, and my parents never said ANYTHING so stupid and racist to me.
Thank you! I was a bit concerned that maybe my normal, not paranoid, not bigoted parenting experience wasn't really the norm. My heart breaks for children raised this way, and I have encountered some, but a really tiny minority.
Granted, I live in a large city with a diverse population and my kids go to public school. The parents that I have met that have these notions tend to either move to school districts that are less mixed, home school, or send the kids to private schools.
So back to the more basic - WTF is wrong with people?
Yay Liese for the exhausting fun times!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yay! Except I woke up in three hours with shoulder pain. Shoulder pain before a day of moving a bunch of equipment is bad. Must have done something cleaning. Not good.

My parents never, never ever ever, said any similar to me. Oh hell no.
Oh hells no. And I did go to inner city public schools.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Went to my MIL's for the first seder last night. Tonight we meet my FIL and SMIL for dinner.(Some sort of steakhouse, probably)
