I have relatives in OK who are all safe. I think my aunt who used to live there had a safe room built and I think safe rooms are more popular and easier to build, but they don't hold a lot of people. And you have to have the money and space to do it.
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I am sorry Juliebird, but I guess it could have been worse. This verdict seems a little like death by paper cats.
Does anyone else get earwormed from rhythms of things? I have Joni Mitchell's song "Ray's Dad's Cadillac" (which I hate, incidentally)stuck in my head, and I couldn't figure out why. Then I realized that someone called the fluffy bird I linked to above the Kwisatz Haderach, and the rhythm of that is the same as Ray's Dad's Cadillac in my head. So now I am stuck with this annoying song!

Now that the shopping bug has hit, Jilli, what was the name of that online store you linked to a while back that had great coats and stuff?

'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"
What Sophia said, Juliebird! I'm not surprised they went with a lesser charge, as it was a first offense and all. A couple weeks of inconvenience, yes, but you'll be able to put it behind you before you know it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I just had an extensive conversation with a woman on the subway who told me that the weather has been crazy since Sputnik! That's what did it -- all the going to space.
Okay, then.
Yeah, what I heard last night was that wind speeds were the highest ever recorded, and it was something in the neighborhood of a mile wide. I don't know that that's fact, but it suggests that it may have just been beyond what shelters could handle.
I'm pretty sure it was the one in '99 with those wind speeds. It was a mile wide at points though. Storm cellars were probably okay even if the door blew off, but basements have the risk of upper structure caving into them. I haven't watched any news today, but it sounds like that's what happened at the school.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Sorry, Juliebird. Do you feel a sense of relief that this is mostly over?
ION, Monica arrives Saturday and will be staying with me for a week. I've done a shitload of cleaning and got some posters framed and put up.
I seem to be alternating between anxiety and excitement. But trending more towards excitement.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Does anyone else get earwormed from rhythms of things?
Constantly! And trying to figure out why I am humming that song (whatever it is) is usually the part that makes me crazy.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Absolutely, tommy. Now I'm just wondering if my two weeks is up in two Tuesdays or the Wednesday after, because Tuesday is the only late day at the DMV.

Chic Star? That's where I've been getting a lot of things from, lately.

Merci, Jilli, that was it! ::runs off to look at more clothes::
