You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Also, I have not puked while driving, but have narrowly missed puking on the bus by getting of at an unknown stop. Which was not fun.

AND to tie it all together, I don't think anything could be much worse than last Thanksgving, which involved me cleaning up my mom's vomie on her carpeted (WTF) bathroom floor.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oh Jesse, many hugs and snuggles for Homer.

And ugh ita, your work has been way to stressful of late.

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

Ugh, thanks. I am not sure what best puke practice is, but I do now feel I should make a plan. I also have no idea why this came over me this hard, but the fact that I actually slept both times I pulled over is probably not insignificant.

The anti nausea prescription I'm on needs to be kept refrigerated, so not exactly packing it while I'm out. Come on, drugs! Kick in! Kick in!

Sophia, if I were a callous person, I'd say people who carpet their bathrooms need enough miserable incidents to demonstrate what a dodgy idea that is. Is it a flat felty-like carpet? I think one of our bathrooms in Jamaica was carpeted like that. WTF? Tropic carpeted bathrooms?

Would you be interested in a phone like this? I'm wondering if I think it's worth it to wait for the development of all the technology that would be required to mass produce the phone in the picture--surely you could use bendable glass on not bendable phones to just drop the breakage risk significantly? I still hear all the noise being about gorilla glass, and this sounds like a potential application for a different angle.

Also, how many of you (other than ND) talk to (not on, to) your phones in order to accomplish tasks?

I can't believe no one reacted to the Storm cosplay. Like, Halle Berry should be calling her and apologising.

I really want to cosplay Storm but a) I don't go anywhere cosplayish b) I don't know the best way to achieve this hair (this is the best I've seen, but I don't like the effect and c) damn, she owns all the Storms.

I do wonder if I'll ever get occasion to cosplay Martha Washington. She's second on my list.

The Crow is third...kidding, Jilli. Well, not that I don't want to, but I guess maybe not.

You should totally cosplay Martha Washington!

If your anti-nausau meds require refrigeration could you carry them in an insulated bag with blue ice?

It is red short pile carpeting. Frankly, I feel like long pile carpeting would have been easier to clean. Also, my mother's =bathroom is powder blue and blood red, which is a bizarre choice for a bathroom (although I have used that chhoice several times for costume/set designs)

ita_!, you are pretty much the ONLY person I know who is exempt from the "Friends Don't Let Friends Dress Like The Crow" rule. Because you would pull off that costume so damn well, and I want to see it.

Pete wants you to cosplay Martha Washington, of course.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I can't believe no one reacted to the Storm cosplay.

I did mentally note that I was glad it was the same one I had seen, because otherwise there might be too much awesome in the world.

Also, as always, I remembered little Danny H. from the daycare I worked at who dressed as Storm for Halloween when he was four. Because she was his favorite X-Man, and why not?
