I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's because you were in the Commonwealth in 1993, not Boston. (Right?)

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

Not unless there's something about Michigan you're not telling me.

(Actually, it was half and half)

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Donna Summer passed away.

Damn.

And the NY Post is reporting that Robert Kennedy Jr's wife hanged herself. Yikes.

It's...closer to Canada than to Boston? ANYWAY.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The DH did some work with her back when he was at William Morris. He said she was an amazingly kind woman and just lovely to be around. She and he husband seemed to have a great relationship. DH met EVERYONE back then and very few people stood out to him--she was one.

I just realized that Tom was not wandering around Colonial Williamsburg lamenting his lost youth...

Tom's not that old!!! (Unless he's a vampire.)

RIP Donna Summer, eh?

She did just correctly used "eh" in a sentence.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

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

Tep,

so the reason I did hotwire is that I have gotten really great rates and not having to do any of that bargain bullshit. Not that priceline is a problem, I just haven't wanted to bother.

There is a traveler's web site out there that discusses what good rates are for various parts of the country for hotels. I don't know if the site also does rental cars.

Anyway, at least with hotwire, you will get a sense of what the going rates are depending on size of car.
