Like a full patdown?
Not a full patdown, but my boobs and midsection seem to be getting a lot of attention. Yesterday I wasn't even wearing layers!
In other news, I've landed.
So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
shrift, go for a Global Entry or TSA PreCheck membership. It's so worth the hassle of the application process. You don't use the full body scanner, and the lines are even shorter than the priority frequent flyer ones.
Calli, go for it. Relo is negotiable and the amount they cover is imputed income (potentially changing your tax bracket), and whatever they might not cover will be a tax write-off for you.
ION, I'm super grateful for this place and all of you. You were there every damned step of the way when it all came crashing down three years ago. I will never be able to properly express how much it means to me.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Because you can never say it to the people you care about too much or too often; love you, sorella.

In re earlier postings - the PDF I got was obviously from Word. It was badly laid out ... and had typos, grammatical errors (shudder). I pried it out into a Word file, made edits in Track Changes and sent it back ... waiting to see what happens.

Oy, Toddson.

Good luck Calli! Interesting location sounds promising.
I do not even know what this "scanner" is. Been a while since I have flown anywhere. Gratuitous pat downs are icky, though, I know that. Enjoy your vacation extravagantly, shrift!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Okay, so, we are not huge Valentine's Day people, but I always try to get Tim a card. Which I haven't done yet, so I was going to run to the CVS later and see what's left. And then it hit me:
Buy a box of kids' Valentines (obviously superhero-themed; I'm sure I didn't need to say that) and hide each one around the house.
Because Avengers are LOVE. I'm doing it.
t edit I am so glad he knows he married a fangirl woman-child.

I'm buying Dan a set of 4 Dr Who glass tumblers I saw at Half Price Books.
And I know already he'll bring me flowers, which I do love.
Then we'll do out Monday to Extra Virgin, our fave restaurant (and I scored a Groupon for it!) It is delicious; it's a Michael Smith Restaurant, a tapas place next door to his fancy-fancy restaurant.

The chickpea frites are to die for; I could eat a pound. The pork belly is amazing, and they serve fantastic cocktails. Dan has the day off so he won't be drag-ass tired, and I will wear a pretty dress and be a girl.

Our wings are not tired.
No plans yet, except going to visit mom. My dad's birthday was Valentine's Day so we celebrate him that day. There might be chocolate covered berries...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I've posted this to FB, but if you have a color printer, print this one out and see what he says.
It's in this hilarious analysis by The Bloggess: This might be a weirdly inappropriate Valentine or I might be reading too much into this.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Because Avengers are LOVE. I'm doing it.
An excellent idea!
