We do not say aboot!
You totally say aboot, eh?
This here's a recipe for unpleasantness.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I have the Christmas presents in the suitcase! By being ruthless about what clothes I'm taking (because your parents have a washer & dryer, self), I think it will all fit.
Now it's time to wrangle the toiletries and electronics.

The other people who need to say that phrase are Scottish.
Also people with an old-school Tidewater accent.
I have the flu or a cold or some other achy, drippy plague, yet I still have to keep going to cancer-related medical things. I'm too sick to have cancer. Whine, whine.

That seems really unfair.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
We are not cliches! We do not say aboot!
The nice young lady at the Epcot exhibit pronounced it aboat. It was very welcoming.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I just watched the end of the Colbert show. Sad now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh! That means White Collar finishes today too!

(Although chocolate chess sounds like a sugar/fondant pie to me--I'm really all about the fruit. Not even pecan--full body shudder)
It was like a cross between a brownie and fudge on a crust. Although fruit pie is lovely, too. I have a Dean-like ecumenical approach to pie.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Between White Collar, Colbert, and Korra (I don't know, among just doesn't seem right there) I am wrung out. Waking up tomorrow morning will be a challenge.
That is massively unfair, Ginger. I hope you can get some relief from symptoms at least, some how.

Mm, now I want a brownie in a fudge crust. This diet hasn't actually been that hard, mostly because I'm barely leaving the house, but today I kept wanting to eat All the Things. Even though I'm not hungry. I'm blaming hormones.
Is Kat here, or anyone who can answer Hawaii questions? I am reading a fic with a lot of white people talking like native Hawaiians, and calling mainlanders haole. I thought all white people in Hawaii were haole, though. Is this a "brother from another mother" situation?
Ask Java--she is white and grew up in Hawaii, no?
