Where's msbelle, the bedbug expert? If I left my suitcase in the car (where it will definitely be ht enough to kill everything), and then change into those clothes this afternoon and put my current clothes in the hot car, I should be ok, right? I think my phone and iPad are the only things that can't/won't/shouldn't go through that.
Oh! I know this one! 'Slaying entails certain sacrifices, blah blah blahbity blah, I'm so stuffy, gimme a scone.'

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
it needs to hit 120 - 125 for an hour sustained. if any interior part is not getting that hot, they will just retreat to the cool areas.

Because books.
Bedbugs aren't going to be in your phone or iPad, though. You don't really need to worry about them.
The bugs look like an apple seed in size and shape, if that helps.

Punishingly Intricate
I'd second airbnb or vrbo and check out jetsetter. They usually have good deals on nice, big city hotels.

Hmm. I figure it'll hit that in the trunk all day. I'll just make sure I get it hot or my backpack too, after work--maybe stop and have dinner and let it bake a while. ;)

Whereas getting to vote can be as simple as requesting an absentee ballot and/or calling up the local senior center to arrange a carpool if the polling place isn't in easy walking distance.
Except some of the states are closing down polling areas and making people wait 4+ hours to vote.

Anyone have a London hotel recommendation? We'll have the 4-year old with us, although she has already told us she'd prefer Paris to check on Madeline.
This is my favorite place to stay in London link.

I am in a dissertation meeting. We are waiting for a faculty member who is late to the meeting.
The faculty member we are waiting on never confirmed the meeting. So we are likely waiting on someone who will never show up.
Why would you have such an important meeting and not confirm the date and time with all members of the committee? In my life I have never encountered this until today.

Was a Young Person in charge of confirming? Because they don't seem to confirm- they assume you are confirmed if you do not say no. They also don't confirm themselves. I actually had one not confirm when I said I could meet "any time after 6". She just showed up at 8 and thought I would be there.
