#saturdayff sparked by Stephen F-ing Mack's. Growing up we had a housekeeper come in a few days a week, but my mom still did a lot of ironing. The laundry room was in the basement and I liked to sit down there with her and look at books while she ironed. I sat there and asked about every word: "what does c - a- t spell?"
Then one day at breakfast she said she was very surprised as I rattled off everything on the cereal box. - Laura Norvig
Awesome - Stephen Mack

Trip to urgent care to remove stubborn tick from Wade's neck. Was not the Lyme disease kind. But required nova sine and digging to get that sucker out.

That is hilarious, Starmama. Always heard about holding a hot match head to the body but never tried it. I think if you kill it instead of getting it to back out it's no bueno. - Laura Norvig

You gais, how do you work out in the middle of the day? I want to swim, but I want to eat.
Back when I was working, I'd nosh at my desk while working then use my lunch hour to either walk to the gym and work out (in one work situation) or go to a back room and use a video workout (in another work situation). - Spidra Webster

#saturdayff I have lived in a VW van and a half-size school bus. The former was a nomadic lifestyle, the latter had the luxury of being parked in a driveway.

how to find the well-hidden "show typical traffic" feature in gmaps on the web. - Laura Norvig
it's unbelievable how hard they make it to find this. - Laura Norvig
plus, as far as I can tell, you can't tie it to a route, only to a single map coordinate and then zoom in or out. dumb. - Laura Norvig
RT @spacekatgal: Can hardly believe how terrible the Twitter interface for making lists is. Use the Website, REALLY?
I am frequently surprised at how unpolished the Twitter experience is, and I use the website, Android app, and iOS (iPad) app frequently. I guess they're iterating quickly, but core functions like lists languish. - Andrew C (✔)

NTS in case landlord tries to deduct linoleum/vinyl replacement: Relative lifespan: The cost of vinyl and linoleum is offset to some extent by the difference in their life cycles. While vinyl can cost as much as 50% less than linoleum, it will only last on average 10-20 years. Meanwhile a linoleum floor can last upwards of 20-40 years, which means...
Normal wear and tear includes simple wearing down of carpet or drapes because of normal use or aging, and includes moderate dirt or spotting. In contrast, large rips or indelible stains justify a deduction from the tenant’s security deposit for repairing the carpet or drapes or replacing them if that is reasonably necessary. On common method of calculating the deduction for replacement prorates the total cost of replacement so that the tenant pays only for remaining useful life of the item that the tenant has damaged or destroyed. For example, suppose a tenant has damages beyond repair an eight-year-old carpet that had a life expectancy of ten years and that a replacement carpet of similar quality would cost $1000. The landlord could properly charge only $200 for the two years’ worth of life (use) that would have remained if the tenant had not damaged the carpet. - Laura Norvig
