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.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

So at least they suffered for it.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Heh. I suspect it was an online purchase, but it got declined, so I guess my credit card people are quick on the mark.

Bastards.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

The Red Victorian is right across the street from a fantastic indie bookstore, The Booksmith (which has hosted readings for Hec, Deb G, and possibly other localista authors I'm blanking on), right next door to the spendy but utterly fantastic vintage store Decades of Fashion (great stuff for both genders and a variety of body types, with a back room full of eye-popping opera costumes), and a couple doors down from Loved To Death.

Also within easy access to the Aub Zam Zam (home of Bruno, legendary martini artist and professional surly bastard who would kick people out for such offenses as dressing like hippies or ordering vodka martinis), lots of taquerias, great Ethiopian food and the Pork Store Cafe.

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

Interesting move, CC thieves. t surreptitiously eyes ita in speculative but not quite accusing manner

The movie I want to see is Trance, but I don't know when I'll get the chance. I like the Danny Boyle.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I was gonna say, that's what? 2 boxes of tea?

STILL NO WORD. THIS IS LIKE THE JURY BEING OUT. I THINK LONGER IS NOT GOOD.

Longer may just mean that people are slow, msbelle. Take deep breaths.

And in completely other but possibly relevant to Buffista shopping interests news, one of the new vendors on Zulily, Little Treetops, has a sale starting today including "And though she be but little, she is fierce" onesies. If anyone needs an invite code, ping me.

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

So at least they suffered for it.

One can only hope.

Because books.

Plus, it's Friday, msbelle. Everything takes longer on Friday in my experience.

Sorry about your card, Dana, but good that your bank caught it!

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

<surreptitiously eyes ita in speculative but not quite accusing manner>

I do my Teavana shopping in person, thank you, because I am in charge like that.

including "And though she be but little, she is fierce" onesie

It'd be silly to buy that hoping someone has the baby for it later, right? I did discover a stash of infant-sized clothes during one of my last tidying binges. I knew I had kids' books that never made it to an age appropriate audience, but there's some temptation to hoard those. The clothes, I have no idea.

As far as "preserve" animals go, elephant is the largest, and without random whale visits, will keep occupying that size spot. Giraffes as tallest, same preserve.

Catching up from my half day off is happening really slowly. Maybe I should go for a short walk and see if that changes anything. I have promised myself to do the ten flights of stairs at least once a day I'm in the office.
