I cannot abide shoes that make my feet sweat.

If I don't get news about whether someone wants to hire me in the next week or two, I have to book a work trip to Orlando.

On one hand, I've actually never been to Florida. On the other hand, Florida in August.

I have the ones sarameg does. Very comfy and no sweaty feet issues. But hella slippery in the rain, for sure.

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

Orlando can be navigated entirely within convention centers and hotels, I have heard, so as not to risk losing the air conditioning.

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

I want to go see the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Have a butter beer for me.

Oh, man. I didn't know that existed or that it was in Orlando! And I'll probably be too tied up with work conference stuff to have a butter beer.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

You have to have a butter beer. We will write you a note.

That would be hugely unfair, to be so close and not get to go.

Thrive to spite them

I hate God doesn't make mistakes so much. There are no words. Saying I hate it with the passion of a thousound fiery suns doesn't even come close. It's such a lie and when someone says that I think that either 1) they've never had to deal with any hardship or 2) they've deluded themselves.

HATE HATE HATE!!!!!!!!!

It's a weird cult of suffering. That and God doesn't give you more than you can handle. Another lie.

Sorry -- this rant brought to you by an upraising in the Southern Baptist Church and a life long struggle with mental illness and other illnesses.

Thanks for all the advice on getting the smell out. I don't mind regular febreeze so I'm going to get some. Also so I can frebreeze myself when I get out of the car.

Um the smell was something akiin to a cornish game hen but sitting in my car for 11 days (although not really hot days and in a parking garage) Luckily nothing "leaked" and also I'm lazy and it was sitting on some paper bags for garden debris so I toss those. Actually I tossed everything that was in the car that I could. I switched out the news papers and dryer sheets, mixed the baking soda around. And it's not raining so I let the windows down.

Someone else suggested charcoal so I'm going to try that as well. I should probably get it steam cleaned but I'm too embarrassed to do have the car detailed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I cannot abide shoes that make my feet sweat.

Ugh, same. My feet sweat a ton all on their own.
