Joyce ,'Never Leave Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Come play at my desk!
Oh, you might appreciate this. Sara went to the Franklin Institute last week and brought home a stuffed white blood cell that she said was going to be named Plushy. We agreed P. Bloody would be even better.
(possibly an exaggeration)
I think not!

Nice!
Wow, I cannot believe how short y'all's commutes are! I mean, I know mine is abnormally long, but still.
Well, mine is 49 miles each way. I can do it in 50 minutes, but it's taken as long as 3 hours.
Thankfully I rarely have to drive during horrible commute times. And what's surprised me is that I work from home less than I could, because I actually like being in my office, around my colleagues.
ETA: Also, listening to the Harry Potter series (thanks, you know who) has helped the commute immeasurably. I am already sad that it's coming to a close.
I live 6.2 miles from my office. Public transportation can take anywhere from 30 to 90 minutes. Once it starts warming up a bit, I'm going to try walking most of that in the evening.
DH's new commute is 100 miles, one way. We're not convinced we have to move. He may take a small apartment in Madison or we may see how long we can get by on cheap hotels during the 3-4 nights a week he spends down there.
I should probably be keeping a folder of hotel receipts for our taxes next year.
The greatest thing that's ever happened in my life (possibly an exaggeration) was when I was home sick one day, or it was a holiday or something, and I turned on one of the judge shows and I had gone to high school with the people!
I used to occasionally watch COPS hoping for this.
When we paid someone to do our taxes it was about $400, so we've done it ourselves ever since. I always did my own for years, but I've handed those duties over to Cody. He's better at it.
I am already sad that it's coming to a close.
Then you can go back and listen to it in Jim Dale's voice for a whole new experience!
I used to occasionally watch COPS hoping for this.
Heh. I should watch that Boston cop show for that, but I think the people I know most likely to be arrested still can't cross the river into Actual Boston.
