Or gay S&M. Not that I know anything about gay S&M as a straight married almost 40 year old woman. Heh.

This is a pretty girl.

The only sports game I’ve ever had a love affair with was SSX Tricky/3. Man those two games were fun as hell and had the best soundtracks. EA has never been able to recapture that magic. *sigh*

My go to deck is Monsters. I actually have a fair amount of ranged and siege cards for the deck to balance out the close combat cards. I also have a couple of commander’s horns in there to maximize damage. My spies also seem to turn up a lot when I play.

Side note.. doesn’t it look like He-Man is dressed for a gay S&M club? Is it just me? Am I the only person whose mind goes there?

You had me at “battle panthers”.

I helped my dad move some ridiculously heavy bags of rock. Rock is cheap. Who knew? I took some paint samples from Menard’s because I want to paint my bathroom. I judged my mom’s Witcher playing style. Then I got on a train back to Chicago. I’m still on the train.

I read a lot of books. My husband is kind of disgusted at me for buying books instead of checking them out of the branch of the Chicago Public Library he works at. But I don’t like reading books that other people have felt up and dog eared and otherwise molested. I generally go through a book a week (I’m not saying…

We could be the same person. Also in Chicago. I’m a region rat at heart. Who the hell came up with that anyhoo?

It’s cool to have a hobby that is not a typical “lady” hobby. I mean, we can go shopping together and do “lady” things, but we can also go shopping together for video games. (Ha!) I’m always appreciative of the time we have together since we live in different states.

The family that games together (or separately) stays together? Except for my dad. He makes up for it by having no filter and knowing how to swear in Klingon.

She just turned 68. :)

My mother is playing Blood and Wine right now and came across a mission where ROACH FREAKIN TALKS! I’ve not yet come across that mission (in fact this bothers the crap out of me because I’m a bit of a completionist and she is not). She said Roach sounds like a man though, which is weird because she is always a mare.

Soap is not actually about killing germs. It is about encapsulating germs in soap bubbles so you can then rinse them down the sink. So normal soap works for that just fine.

I only use a washcloth when I am washing my face - like before bed. I then hang it on the shower curtain rod spread out so it drys as quickly as possible.

I’m not one to believe in heaven and hell, but if I were, I hope that when Ann Coulter passes (in an entirely painful, terrible way) that she goes to hell and is honestly confused as to why she is there. And not just there, but in the deepest recesses reserved for the worst kind of murdering, raping horrible people.

I’m broke as hell, but I’d sooner swim in a pool full of starving phiranas than willingly fly Spirit. Southwest is my cheap airline cut-off.

I only wish Jez would follow me so I would not be in the gray. I was starred with my old name, which was like 5 years ago. But alas I’m never going to re-earn Jezebel’s trust. *weeps inconsolably*. I got a bunch of follows from Gizmodo and associated blogs and a couple lifehacker sub-blogs, but I was already followed…

People here still call the Willis Tower the Sears Tower and refer to Macy’s as Marshall Field’s. Somehow I doubt that Guaranteed Rate Field will stick. We’ll just roll our eyes and mock it.

Good. She should be credited for time served and released. Then hopefully she’ll leave Indiana. We all leave Indiana - we might not go far, but we all leave. It’s a hard place not just for a woman, but for anyone who wants a decent job that isn’t in retail or big Pharma sales.
