To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Aldis needs to do more than say hi--he needs to call. I'm not sure what to do about the in TDKR part, though. That's complex.

Do we think a cotton shift dress would weigh two pounds? For mailing purposes...

I texted back (this morning):
"Are you sending him over?"
I guess that's too much to hope for. But I'll pick him up from the airport.

If it has solid gold buttons, sure.

Oh, you think less? It's lined and stuff. OK, I'll just bring it to the PO to weigh it and then come back to print the label. Or just pay the extra dollar to mail it at the PO, for crying out loud.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Emmett's gone on a camping trip with a friend's family this weekend.
Yesterday we had this conversation in the car.
Me: Please be careful in the wilderness. Don't you and [your friend] do anything stupid.
Emmett: Pffft. Dad. We'll be fine. What did you think we were going to do?
Me: Please don't have light saber battles with flaming sticks you pull from the campfire.
Emmett: Oooh, I hadn't even thought of that. You know what I want to do? Kill a badger. If I see a badger I'm coming home with a pelt.
Me: Stay away from wildlife.
Emmett: What does a badger look like?
Me: Emmett, a badger will eat your face off like a small furry dude on Bath Salts.
Emmett: If a badger comes at me, it's bad for him.
Matilda: Emmett! Please don't get eaten by wolves because I love you a lot!
Emmett: I won't get eaten by wolves. If I meet wolves I'll start running with the pack.
Later from the road he texted me:
Emmett: "We bought a bow and arrow from a road side vendor! We are SO HAPPY!"
Me: Please don't shoot your friend in the neck.
Emmett: Pshaw.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Was this where we were talking about not typing apostrophes in iOS? I do that, ftr. I noticed this morning that it makes deciding if I have used the right "it's" harder.
