Utterly random question: Lots of shows feature some unfairly convicted person breaking out of prison to prove his innocence, and once the dust settles the person gets to try and put their life back together. But isn't breaking out of prison a crime in and of itself? Wouldn't they just get sent back to the pokie for a new sentence?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The only single men I know really need to work on their shit before they can be allowed near a relationship.

Apparently I was coherent enough to realize I was getting a migraine and had painkillers in my hand, but not coherent enough to take them. Something like four hours later, I finally found them in my pocket.

I feel this.

Yes, I should think so. Unless the prosecutor decides not to charge them, although most people hate to be embarrassed, so I can totally see a DA charging someone for escaping. After all, they're supposed to work through the system. (This implies a naive faith in the system.)

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

I know some nice single men in LA, it's just they are in LA and Rebecca isn't.

Also go mac! Here's to the summer system working!

Indeed, go mac!

And... I cannot even believe this. We're on our third chief of police in 8 days: [link]

WTF even.

Standing. Right. Here, Burrell. (Granted 2 or 3 hundred miles, still...)

Yikes, Consuela.

Uhg, just looked at the forecast and I guess I'll also be putting in the ac this weekend.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'd like a boyfriend, too, please. I mean, I have no real hope I'll ever find a compatible guy, but as long as we're putting it out there...

I've found my girl, but she's far away, and at this point I feel like we may never coincide locally. We keep talking about "when we move in together" but it's feeling like a fantasy lately.

Speaking of which/whom, remember my BFF's troublesome youngest daughter? Good news and bad news! Bad news is, she flunked junior year. Didn't pass a single class. And since she was held back one year already, she's now 18 and having to repeat her junior year. The good news is, she got a job! Working at MickeyD's. She's happy with it so far. Having a job has made quite a difference in her attitude, she's become more engaged and responsible and doesn't stay on the computer 24/7.

And relatedly, good going, Mac, keep it up! I hope Mac can keep his head in the right place, Rebecca. Both of you need some calm and order in your lives.

I really have come to believe that staying on a computer for hours at a time is bad for all of us. It's certainly bad for ME. So I'm going to go fold some laundry now. Yay.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Back from the spa and lunch(not at the spa). Now it's Gary's turn to do errands while I watch the little guy.(who fell asleep not long after I put him in the crib.)

Hey, does anyone know if superglue is safe to be used for something that goes in your mouth?

(The fake teeth on my temporary partial denture are starting to crack off. I'll have to wait until at least Monday to get it looked at. I won't be gluing anything to anything that actually is a part of me...)
