"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I just can't foresee having a clear head in that time. Ack. I mean, I need to get the cheque from Geico, clear the car out, find a mechanic, find a car, ack ack ack panic ack.

Why don't you tell Scrappy's DH what you LOVED about your Jetta and give him a price range and see if he could scrounge up a short list from what's available and a good deal locally? I bet he'd do that for you.

Amyth: Watch your noggin.

Calli: Watch Amy's noggin.

Msbelle: Fuck it!

JenP: No Smoking!

Jesse: No tempting!

Jilli's Dad: Rock on. Or, you know, steam on.

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

I need to make Thanksgiving and Christmas plans. And Vegas plans. And DC plans.

Because books.

I have California plans! Even if they're only one day.

Which is why I need to make plans to go again. Unless I follow Perkins to Vegas instead.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I have DC plans!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I'm just having some bad cravings of wanting to see all y'all again.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I have to say, I don't know I'd be traveling as much if it weren't for the fact my parents generously subsidize my travel.

Mine pay part as well, but for family trips. Which is why my California trips are never as glamorous or Buffista-filled as outsiders think. I mean, even spending the whole time busy with family obligations, north San Diego doesn't suck. But then neither does Portland and I live here. And I am grateful I get to see my family and live here.

I love that we'll get to see you! I wish we had a furlough that week.

I'm having a bad day. Too stupid to recall but I think I"ve misplaced $500 in curriculum.

I'm gonna go search the rest of the garage for it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Scrappy's DH! Help me!

Called home. Mother's going under the knife Monday. Half the island is praying for her, pretty much, and the other half is sciencing, and some are doing both. We also worked out we have a gastroenterologist in the family, so she'll be getting a relative's second opinion.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Here is the most recent update on the search CJ was involved with last weekend.

He is being a true 15 year old tonight. He is off at the football game against the cross town rivals. He went with a car full of girls who go to the other high school. My little boy...

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

ita, if you need to find a mechanic on the Westside, you could always try our guy.

Kids are reading Diary of a Wimpy Kid to each other. I approve as it means I don't have to read it.
