That's wonderful news, Anne! I'm sure the inspection will go fine. Wow! That all happened so fast.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

vw, that's a lovely pan. I don't use my mini-Bundt near enough. Makes such pretty dessert.

there is now a contract on the house

So what do you do? Call the cops and get protection? Urge the house to run for its life? Stand and fight? What?

vw, that's a lovely pan.

I first read this as "vw, that's a lovely plan." And I thought, plan? What plan? Is my memory really that bad? Clearly, it is. Looks like my reading could use some work too.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

beth, did you use Dutched Cocoa, or just regular?

vw, that is an adorable pan. You should link to such things before get togethers when I am trying to decide what to get you rather than after. ;)

ION, I seem to have picked up a stomach bug. I feel very icky.

Trust my rage

I bought a Honda Pilot yesterday. It's a beautiful car and does exactly what I need it to do for a price I was happy with. My dad is visiting and we drove it to the beach yesterday. The dogs played on the beach while we walked a bit. Then we had a wonderful plate of crab legs, clams, shrimp, corn on the cob and sausage. We drove home watching a really pretty sunset.

Then, after I had parked my new car in the garage, I closed the garage door. However, the car was a bit longer than I realized. As it just so happened, there was a metal bracket sticking out of the inside of the door and it left a 12 inch scrape line down the back of my brand new car. :( (I don't usually use emoticons, but I feel I deserve one here.)

My dad is hoping that if we wash and wax the scratch, maybe it will help.

{{{Nonian}}} That sucks. I hope the wash and wax helps.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That sucks, Nonian. I hope your dad is right.

You might need a little of that polishing stuff used to rub out scratches, hopefully, nothing more.

The first scratch is always the worst.
