omg, there is this amazing place in AdMo in DC... don't remember the name of it but I am suddenly regretting moving to Minnesota. I think the closest place to me now is a three-hour drive into the Cities. =(

Ahhh, OM! Loved that shit. Anyhoo, to keep it fair for teams from smaller/poorer schools, there was a limit on how much you're allowed to spend on your project. Scavenging was highly encouraged. IIRC, most of our budget went to duct tape and spray paint.

Kinja is awful on my iPad. Typing is really really slow, it hangs up, and often crashes Safari. Typing has always been frustratingly slow, but the rest is new.

It's not even real pumpkin. Just the spices that usually go in pumpkin pie. But cinnamon-nutmeg latte just isn't as catchy.

Haha, doing this right now but with photographers. Yes, nine months is right on the "not enough time" line! *headwall*

I have to speak with vocal fry to *not* sound like a little girl. My speaking voice just doesn't like being that deep. =( (hate it so hard... just spent like half an hour recording and re-recording my voicemail message at work.)

I wish I could star this a million times.

ngl, food poisoning + out of TP = shower poop

Or it could have ended with a previously-unarmed intruder turning her gun on her, which is far more likely.

You just planned my reception for me.

I think she's using it right. She said "women recover faster," indicating the whole human woman. "Female brain" is just a biological part of her.

I've been singing "First Time In Forever" for like four days now. Aaaand now it's back. I feel your pain.

You are just... not educated, bro. And moving the goalposts. I am pretty tired of going back and forth with you, listening to you trying to insist that this poor violent offender was done wrong.

I could indeed, also, take a 38% pay cut and live on it, because I'm not an idiot with my money. If I beat my partner, though, I'd be in jail making 0% of my paycheck. Seems like being rich saves you from obeying the rules the plebes have to abide by.

I am saying all of those things. Athletes make too much money, this guy is an asshole, and a knock to his paycheck is NOT ENOUGH.

The Carefirst BCBS I had in college would cover one abortion per year. The stuff I have now through my employer doesn't specify a limit - abortion is covered.

Khan/Sherlock? =D =D =D

Yet again - taking a bit of money from a rich-ass violent offender is NOT an effective punishment. Taking 10% of my income is a lot, and even I could mostly keep my standard of living. Sorry I don't think this rich bastard isn't actually being punished by losing a bit of extra cash. Onoz, he might have to sell that…

Effective punishment for beating the shit out of a partner. The tiniest violins for the perpetrators' poor aching wallets.

My heart bleeds for his $795k/year. It really does.
