I got tired of the clown-car farce of the Republican troupe of Presidential candidates the last time. I've lost my enthusiasm for watching them make fools of themselves in public.

Is it too far to have your housemate drive you all the way to the airport?

Actually, housemate works kind of near the airport, but I've observed his time management skills, and I don't want to spend the morning haranguing him to get out of the house on time. I didn't marry him or give birth to him, so that's not a place I want to go.

I'm definitely getting the shuttle home, because the train station is a couple of miles from the house, and the bus that goes by my house may well have stopped running by the time I get home at the "ungodly" hour of 7 PM.

Tucking is what immediately came to mind.

For some reason, the older I get, the more embarrassed I get when talking to 18 - 21 year old boys about their penises. I should try to delegate to my students!

THis is impossible because I LOVE MGG so much, but he is too young for me. I think I would C Thomas Gibson, M Joe Mantegna (because he seems cosy) and F MGG? But I would also want to take care of MGG and possibly feed him soup. And wrap him in scarves.

I once found a note I'd left myself with someone's first name and a number. The number was disconnected and I had no idea who that person was. I may be a sleeper agent.

A family friend once found a note in her husband's pants that said something really incriminating, with a phone number -- I wish I could remember what! Anyway, come to find out, it was a song lyric and the number of the radio station that he wanted to call to ask about the song. Crap, but what was it? Not "saving all my love for you," but something like that.

Right now Sushirrito is only open in the Bay Area, but I for one can't wait until they are everywhere!

Do they have a food truck? I think I saw it at the last Off the Grid event.

THANK YOU LEE

Even if it is a cover story to protect me from my alter ego's secret life.

Y'all, Bobby Jindal is running for president.

Oh good lord. It really be everyone in the GOP before they're done, won't it?

Airport shuttles are good investments for peace of mind, Connie. Think of the expense as a percentage of your total vacation expenses (or flight) and it's not much, right?

C Mantegna, he irritates me for some reason. Probably M MGG and F Gibson? Not sure.

Those sushiritos look huge. I don't know if I'm down for that. One of the things I like best about sushi is the bite-sized pieces.

Happy belated birthday, Steph! I was offline for most of the day yesterday. I hope it was amazing.

Ugh. I've heard Thomas Gibson is kind of a jerk in real life (even though I think he's incredibly handsome), so if we're talking about the actors and not the characters they play I would: F Gubler, C Gibson, and M Mantegna. I've met him a few times, and he is oh-so-charming and a good man in general.

Now if we're talking about the characters, I would: F Rossi, C Reid, and M Hotchner. (Hey, we both lost spouses way too early under tragic circumstances.)

Go for the shuttle, Connie. Just remember that they may pick up other passengers, so you need to leave early enough to get you to the airport in time.

I think I'll do the reservation now. They want 24-hour notice, but I like to have things nailed down.

2 weeks from now I'll be sitting next to a pool with Elena!

I am sitting on my couch while two hired professionals clean my house. I feel weirdly guilty, but also, oh my god, this is awesome.
