I'm back from my one week mother-daughter vacation to San Francisco, which actually turned out to be a mother-daughter-daughter trip as I was surprised by the presence of my little sister who decided to return from Australia early. Apparently, she and my mom had been planning for her to meet up with us in San Francisco for weeks now and no one told ( Read more... ) -
I want my elephant!
Oh, for fuck's sake, Captain Kirk. Who's next, the Pope?
