"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Box jellyfish who were angered by raging anemones!

Yeah. During the next six weeks we are supposed to: finish the school year and close up the house, travel to Kansas, board meeting, vbs, travel to Illinois, wedding, music festival, travel to Indiana. And then the hard work starts. Including more vbs and a camp and then an eight week, ten state tour.

So.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

"Pretty bad tear" is the verdict. Walking cast for now and ortho guy later.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

"Pretty bad tear" is the verdict.

Damn. I'm sorry.

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

"Pretty bad tear" is the verdict. Walking cast for now and ortho guy later.

This is not super compatible with the above outlined agenda.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Are there spoiler standards for facebook? One of my friends posted that he was pissed off at last night's episode of House. I commented on that post, asking what had pissed him off about it, and mentioning one plot point that I thought didn't make sense. One of his friends then posted at me in all caps for posting a spoiler. I've been scrolling past a bunch of discussion of Sherlock, since I haven't seen the latest episode yet, and I figured that something that's already aired, and which is mentioned in the original status, is fair game for comments on that status.

Crap. Medical crises just derail everything so damned fast.

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

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Java Cat!

I'm sorry, Liese.

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

Good god, if you know a 7:30am meeting is cancelled, why not tell people?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Does AA have a legal expectation of privacy, or is it inherent in the name, or the rules of the organisation? I mean, how far do I have to go to establish *this* roomful of people having an expectation of privacy, when the group that meets in the same room in an hour might not?

It is in the rules of the organization, which are (IME) posted on every visible wall surface available, and stated explicitly by the meeting leader before they begin. It would take an immense amount of stupid to be present at an AA meeting and think it was ok to take pictures.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
