They do seem to stand out...

TPBM wishes there was some way to put more inflection into online posts, so people would know when it's sarcasm and not bitchy.

It's why I use a lot of italics and even more emoticons. I don't mind if people find it a trace silly; I'll take that over bitchy. :)

The person below me still has playa food left.

I cling to the idea that at times when politics are not so infantile that the 99% will lead to better laws through discussion.

I've noticed a foot fetish theme going on.

TPBM likes to go clothes shopping with the theme from That Girl in their head

You bet I do. I usually use finger quotes when saying "normal" while in conversation.

I was, but my older son didn't realize the cultural significance of Toni and Tenille and used it for batting practice.

No not yet. I kind of like wet and gloomy days in the winter and the playa needs water/snow.

I think not! Mostly don't consume music at all, other than the ONE decent local station in this 1.5 horse town (read: not country). and that is only to keep the voices in my head entertained while driving.

TPBM remembers "Disco Duck" fondly.

"Barely" is more like it. I do have nice things to say about Desert Duck, however.

After my scrapbooking experience this week, I think I can take it easy for a few days.

TPBM has more than 20 screwdrivers.

I am planning on it. I won't "accept" it until I'm getting in the car heading to the playa- I'm too Jewish to feel comfortable this far out.

true.......so often with size 14, this happens...it's still disappointing, though.
