You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

Good to know, Billytea, thanks.

Buffistas really do know everything.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Thanks sara! There does look like a little set of train tracks on the map. [link]

I think that's actually the SEPTA line into the city, IIRC.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Have a great trip, Sue! I knew you were planning this but I didn't realize we had gotten to Actually Going Time. Whee!

Because books.

Sue, Philly's pretty manageable -- I would still say change terminals once your flight lands, just to be safe, but with the shuttle bus it shouldn't be hard or take too long.

There aren't a lot of things to do and/or eat in that airport, but the basics are there. And as far as I recall, bt is right -- that's the SEPTA train line, not a terminal connection. Look for the shuttle bus.

And have fun! Ireland! Bring back pictures!

So I have no idea where my train memory comes from. Certainly not Madrid- that was a fuckton of walking and stairs (sooo not disability friendly, but I found that true of Spain in general, both in 1996 and now.)

I'm at the healing point in my crowns I should think of flossing them. I'm askeered to.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Having had a couple crowns done, my advice is to floss very very gently the first time -- just pull down as far as it lets you without stress. If they seem to be sticking on the way up, pull the floss through.

It probably won't, though. The crowns may actually be smoother than the original teeth.

Yeah, I know. These are the mirror of the other two I got this past fall, though there is less scabbing. But it is there, and last time, once it felt like there was something stuck between my teeth, it was time to deal with it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Have fun in Ireland, Sue!

Public transit is still not running here today. I think that is ridiculous! They can't run the underground stuff?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Ireland! Have fun!
