Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Because books.

she has a damned privileged life (as do her privileged friends) and yet still there are stigmas, internalized and externalized, despite the very visible traditional indicators of success.

I like sara's take on it, although the excerpt Strega posted did make me want to choke the writer: "vacated town" for a "meditation retreat" and "bequeathed her charming Brooklyn aerie"?

It sounds like Beatrix Potter fanfic crossed with Early-Adopting Hipster.

I wanted to nose-to-nose him and demand his papers.

Heh.

bad driving habits

Heh, heh.

no Southwest flights showed up

I think Southwest doesn't show up travel sites, btw. I think you have to go to the SW site directly. Think, as in heard someone say it once or something.

Oh, that's what I meant to add: SW does not do the airline aggregation sites at all.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

When the car turned, DH noticed it was a nun in full habit.

When I was a kid, my dad use to say our minister's continued existence was proof of a loving God, considering the minister's appallingly bad driving.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"bequeathed her charming Brooklyn aerie"

I will say, that reads to me as tiny and old, at least a 5th floor walk-up, but I have been reading a lot of real estate ads lately.....

It probably is, Jesse, but the language is so frigging *precious* it made me gag.

There's a reason for everybody to dislike this article!

Meanwhile, my eye started twitching again about three hours ago and has. not. stopped. It's a slow, steady torture.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

bequeathed her charming Brooklyn aerie

"aerie?"

That is too fucking funny.

Oh sure.

You guys, I have been such a stressball for the past two days, and after therapy, I feel so much better! Nothing has changed, but just putting stuff out there is so helpful.
