All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

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.

Oh Sara, that is not fun. That happened at my parents' on thanksgiving weekend. My brother and BiL were champs and snaked the sewer line themselves. It was gross.

Oh man, Sara, that sucks.

Also, Ginger is funny and billy tea is awesome.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

fingers instead of hands....

Hah. Yes, that possibility did occur to me.

Yeah, this is a DIY I will not attempt.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Maybe it was because we were already talking body parts, but it took me a long time to realize you didn't mean fingers instead of hands....

This,and I also read retinal as rectal... It was super confusing!

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

Well, digital would still be an improvement over manual in that case, I'm thinking.

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

billytea, thank you for saving my hat from my guts. Those were awesome!

Also, I might have grown up to be a more sciencey person if I'd had more teachers like my friend's. Extra credit for anatomy haiku is exactly the kind of thing that would've suckered me in.

The house my brother has a contract on also had stupid-plumbing flooding.

That's 3 houses among 2 households in one week.

One thing about us: once we finish cursing and crawl out of fetal, we bounce. Resent every damned second, but we do it with a vengeance. And snark and self-mockery.

My parents pointed out they had their flood earlier this summer.

That's a lot. One might almost be tempted to say too much.

Y'all! I don't go into the office until 9 tomorrow, so I'm going to sleep in. I'm pretty excited!

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

So someone just called us trying to scam Cody into believing our computers had been hacked and he needed to let them login remotely to "fix" it. Crazy. One of those social engineering hacks.
