The funeral was today. Closed casket. Still feels unreal, still in shock.

I know that feeling, hon. It fades. Doesn't ever really go away, but it fades. Take the time that you need, not what time people *think* you need. All of us handle this in our own way. *hugs*

we had that problem once, it turns out if a hammer spends a prolonged amount of time sitting on a large coil of extension cord that has electricity going through it the whole thing turns into some form of rudimentory motor or some such and melts.

Filling my Etsy inventory at the first of the year with hats and arm warmers and maybe a scarf or two. Bookmark it because awesomeness can only come from this.
I'll also be taking commissions so if you don't see what you want (when it's up) you van message me and I'll work something out. So exciting!

Re: Member Announcements Thread
Some asshole just committed a hit and run on my parked car. We called the police and had them document the damage.
The weird thing is, afterwards we found a plastic piece in the street with a parts number on it - and it's apparently from a rear window wiper. My car is also damaged in the rear... So apparently somebody backed out of a parking lot with a vengeance to push my ton-and-a-half car a good six feet into a street sign. Then drove off.

Re: Member Announcements Thread
That always sucks.
I've had a similar thing happen to my car too. Only it was my neighbour, and he left his broken off wing mirror behind at the scene as "square shape goes in square hole" toddler toy style evidence. He reversed out of his space and scraped right down the entire length of the car from front wheel to back, destroying both one of his rear lights and the mirror, with enough speed to buckle my doors. And then drove off.
The fact that my car at the time was already booked to be scraped in a couple of months, and that his looked pretty expensive, made the whole thing a lot more bearable and amusing than it would have been otherwise.
Is there any chance of actually catching the one who hit you?

Re: Member Announcements Thread
Well, we did find these rear windshield wiper parts in the parking lot and handed them over to the police, so the chances are not abysmal. Still, my car was pretty old and cheap and a repair might not be worth it. I'll probably have to buy a new old car, preferably of the same type (winter tires are expensive, too).

Re: Member Announcements Thread
-Love NunuHer Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II said:
A MESSAGE FROM THE QUEEN
To the citizens of the United States of America from Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
In light of your failure in recent years to nominate competent candidates for President of the USA and thus to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective immediately. (You should look up 'revocation' in the Oxford English Dictionary.)
Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths, and territories (except North Dakota, which she does not fancy).
Your new Prime Minister, David Cameron, will appoint a Governor for America without the need for further elections.
Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire may be circulated next year to determine whether any of you noticed.
To aid in the transition to a British Crown dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect:
-----------------------
1. The letter 'U' will be reinstated in words such as 'colour,' 'favour,' 'labour' and 'neighbour.' Likewise, you will learn to spell 'doughnut' without skipping half the letters, and the suffix '-ize' will be replaced by the suffix '-ise.' Generally, you will be expected to raise your vocabulary to acceptable levels. (look up 'vocabulary').
------------------------
2. Using the same twenty-seven words interspersed with filler noises such as ''like' and 'you know' is an unacceptable and inefficient form of communication. There is no such thing as U.S. English. We will let Microsoft know on your behalf. The Microsoft spell-checker will be adjusted to take into account the reinstated letter 'u'' and the elimination of '-ize.'
-------------------
3. July 4th will no longer be celebrated as a holiday.
-----------------
4. You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns, lawyers, or therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and therapists shows that you're not quite ready to be independent. Guns should only be used for shooting grouse. If you can't sort things out without suing someone or speaking to a therapist, then you're not ready to shoot grouse.
----------------------
5. Therefore, you will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything more dangerous than a vegetable peeler. Although a permit will be required if you wish to carry a vegetable peeler in public.
----------------------
6. All intersections will be replaced with roundabouts, and you will start driving on the left side with immediate effect. At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and without the benefit of conversion tables. Both roundabouts and metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour.
--------------------
7. The former USA will adopt UK prices on petrol (which you have been calling gasoline) of roughly $10/US gallon. Get used to it.
-------------------
8. You will learn to make real chips. Those things you call French fries are not real chips, and those things you insist on calling potato chips are properly called crisps. Real chips are thick cut, fried in animal fat, and dressed not with catsup but with vinegar.
-------------------
9. The cold, tasteless stuff you insist on calling beer is not actually beer at all. Henceforth, only proper British Bitter will be referred to as beer, and European brews of known and accepted provenance will be referred to as Lager. South African beer is also acceptable, as they are pound for pound the greatest sporting nation on earth and it can only be due to the beer. They are also part of the British Commonwealth - see what it did for them. American brands will be referred to as Near-Frozen Gnat's Urine, so that all can be sold without risk of further confusion.
---------------------
10. Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as good guys. Hollywood will also be required to cast English actors to play English characters. Watching Andie Macdowell attempt English dialect in Four Weddings and a Funeral was an experience akin to having one's ears removed with a cheese grater.
---------------------
11. You will cease playing American football. There is only one kind of proper football; you call it soccer. Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which has some similarities to American football, but does not involve stopping for a rest every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like a bunch of nancies).
---------------------
12. Further, you will stop playing baseball. It is not reasonable to host an event called the World Series for a game which is not played outside of America. Since only 2.1% of you are aware there is a world beyond your borders, your error is understandable. You will learn cricket, and we will let you face the South Africans first to take the sting out of their deliveries.
--------------------
13.. You must tell us who killed JFK. It's been driving us mad.
-----------------
14. An internal revenue agent (i.e. tax collector) from Her Majesty's Government will be with you shortly to ensure the acquisition of all monies due (backdated to 1776).
---------------
15. Daily Tea Time begins promptly at 4 p.m. with proper cups, with saucers, and never mugs, with high quality biscuits (cookies) and cakes; plus strawberries (with cream) when in season.
God Save the Queen!
