That story is the dictionary definition of 'scary'.

Do you ever get bored by your commute? Have you ever been waiting at a bus-stop and found you have nothing to read and the battery on your iPod has run down. Not a problem if you live in Bulgaria.

I'm sure the Church of England wouldn't approve but aw!

Damn, I knew I should've taken a night bus when I was over there!

Since there's a small but definite chance I'll be moving to Bulgaria in the next 7-8 months, that goes right on the list of Things Not to Tell Pamchenko's Mom.

Cool, you might be moving to Bulgaria? Whereabouts?

It's only one of many many possibilities (since it's in my region for Peace Corps, and I'm not even sure what's going on with that now that Bulgaria's in the EU), but I'm also actively looking for rule of law positions in Sofia.

Anyhow, suffice to say, my parents would not be thrilled about the porn in bus stations thing, heh.

It's only softcore porn. You've probably seen worse on MTV. Wait, what was my point?

That's fantastic - I'd really like to join the Peace Corps when I leave college.

WTF? I can't wait for the L&O treatment.

It was on NPR today. She claimed that she and the other astronaut were not lovers, but that their relationship "went beyond work." Why would she then threaten that woman?

I realized she must be crazy when it talked about her wearing diapers so she could make the long drive without stopping. Honey, I don't care HOW "beyond work" you think it was, peeing in your pants is not ok.

I bet NASA are reviewing their selection criteria right about now.

I think Lust in Space is the best title I've seen so far for an article about this story.

This story mentions that astronauts wear diapers on launch and re-entry (sings, "The More You Know!"), so that's probably where she got the idea.

But yeah

Imagine the terror of someone cooped up in a space station with her for 6 months or so.

From that link:

Which means what, in crazy talk?

Also, she has three kids, and was married for 19 years. But she and her husband separated a few weeks ago, which probably triggered this whole trip.
