Happy Birthday ita!
Back at work today. Gronk.
Lorne: Back in Pylea they used to call me "sweet potato." Connor: Really. Lorne: Yeah, well, the exact translation was "fragrant tuber" but…

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
First of all, Nilly is not a clown.
Second of all, Happy Birthday, ita!!!
(And also to my brother, who turns 50 today.)
for those of you who like Cook's Illustrated or watch America's Test Kitchen, the cookbooks from ATK are AWESOME.
I gave one to my SIL for Christmas. I so wanted to keep it. Bridget Lancaster is my seekrit celebrity girlfriend.
I also have it on pretty good authority that the Pats move to Hartford was a bluff Bob Kraft totally got called on - there was no way he was going to move the team out of Foxboro if it wasn't to Boston, and Boston ponied up some dough on top of it.
Yeah, I know. They tried the same crap with Providence. Which makes me wonder why anyone in Connecticut still roots for them, given how they hosed that state.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Happy Birthday, ita!

Happy Birthday, ita!
And, whatever would we do without Nilly? I miss her so.
And, what channel is ATK on? I think I need to start watching. I am large with the Cooks Illustrated love, although in a limited way, i.e., when I go to my aunt and uncles', and read it there.
Or, I could google.
I am a geek. One of my personal projects of the day is to work up a spreadsheet to track all of our expenses. It is surprisingly tricky with 2 people.
Also, if you are so inclined, green-card ~ma to Tom would be much appreciated, as he is en route to the government offices to get the resident passport stamp and the green card. Which apparantly is not actually green. His apointment is at 9:20, and though I'm sure everything will go fine, there's always an opportunity for a burocracy to screw up.

Thanks, DX! Looks like it runs on Saturday afternoons on various PBS channels. Will check to see which one we actually get.
Whee! New cooking show obsession!

Ooh, ita's birthday? Definitely Hippo Birdies time to you!!!
Me, I've woken up with a nosebleed and have opened a $3.95 bottle of Refreshment Center water. (It's Italian! And it's fucking wet!) On the plus side this is the Westin Horton Plaza, and not only is it a Heavenly Bed (which does live up to the reputation) every little thing in the hotel room is so well designed and thought out.
I'm still on Right Coast time, though, even so I slept until virtual 8 AM.
If Nilly is a clown, she's one of those Emmet Kelly good type of clown, not the scarey ones.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Green-card (although not actually green)-ma to Tom. Non-red-tape-bureaucracy-ma added, just in case.
